Cheers. It'll certainly a little less try hard on the stock wheels or whatever summers I go for. Eibachs are going on in spring.
Also got these, again I guess most will detest them, but I dislike the chrome grilles
Cheers @Luke. It's my daily but I still enjoy it on random drives etc - still only sitting at 25k miles too :)
No I didn't, seems it leads to a loss of power which put me off.
Tempted to remove the foam from the song generator valve for a bit more noise though.
Pressed plates ditched. Black grilles ordered - not popular but I really don't like the look of the stock grilles. Eibach springs to be ordered soon - just concerned it may void the BMW AUC warranty?
@wozzaa - Sounds decent - love VXRs!
@Goodj - Wasn't sure if you meant it sarcastically or...
Totally agree with the last part - it's worth it purely for peace of mind. Once the initial expense is paid, they should see me through 2 / 3 winters too. As will be working a lot of nights it'll be worth it as when I drive home the roads will be that much colder too.
A few more. 2 coats of RaceGlaze '55' and topped with Optimum Instant Detailer :

Beading not as tight or tall as normal as it's done a few miles...
Cheers Ron - Still debating a nice set of summer wheels coupled with a drop and spacers next year.
Cheers Matthew - They'd look better spaced out and with less arch gap - something I aim to resolve next year.
Summers will be on non run flats next year, either Continental Sport Contact 5s or...
Just a question - I seemingly don't get any message notifications (whatsapp / FB messenger / Hangouts etc) until i've unlocked the phone and gone to the home screen? Even then it takes a few seconds for them to appear.....
Really chuffed with the Z3. Build quality is a really step up from the S3, the customisation, appearance and slickness of 4.4.4 is great and the speed of the phone is sublime! Nillkin tempered glass screen applied with terrapin cover, custom sleeve from etsy and 64Gb Samsung xD card on the way...
Sort of stuck on the single player now. I've done all Franklin and Michaels jobs on the map, just waiting for the heist now - and yet they're still showing as 1 job each? The only other thing that could be classed as a job for both of them is the stunt plane challenge? Tried and it's f*cking...
I know, it wasn't specifically aimed at you. No need to apologise :smile:
They'll probably be off in the summer, when I use the winter tyres on the original alloys and have nice summers. Love the look of BBS CHs / Apex EC7 and CCW LM20 splits. Probably stick with 18s in staggered offset, along...
As said, it's my first winter in my first RWD car - and while a lot on here think they're Sebastian Loeb / Fernando Alonso and Ayrton Senna all rolled into one - I don't. If it proves futile and they are unnecessary i'll just sell them next year - no bother.
I don't mind the input and opinions...
Oh dear. Can't beat the CS clique.
- It's my first RWD car and as such I wanted to be sure i'm happy driving in winter, not just in snow / ice but also sub 7 degrees damp conditions.
- I respect the 'summer' wheels aren't anything special, but that wasn't the reason i've swapped them over - as...

Forgot to dress the tyres.
Very engrossing. One mission initially sees you chasing down a guy in a van, using the dog to track his scent and you chasing him on foot - all this I did in first person view and it felt so immersive!
Not completed much at all as I just kept d*cking about trying as many cars and bikes out as...
Been on this all night, literally just turned it off.
Not tried online as I assume the servers will be struggling with the influx of players as with all new releases.
Been back and forth between the OnePlus One and Xperia Z3, but have finally decided on the Z3, the only concern being the low output voltage via the headphone jack that was putting me off.
Decided to go for an external amplifier / DAC and decent cans to go with the Z3. Looking forward to it...
Cheers guys!
Seen a few comments on AVforums re: poor customer service and can be a bit pot luck as to getting a good handset - the only things putting me off really!
I've got my preorder ready for Monday night as there's a one hour window where they're on sale (1600 - 1700 hours GMT).
64gb black with flip case and express delivery.
Would you guys recommend a tempered glass screen protector as opposed to a acetate one?
Regarding price :
Z3 = £23 pm over the 24 month duration (free handset)
OPO = £24.66 over the 24 month duration (giff gaff 4g sim)
Just wondered why people chose this over say the Z3 or M8. Rooting doesn't massively interest me, but hopefully they'll roll out the OS updates quicker than 3rd...
Looking at the One Plus One as my next handset (potentially) - looking at comparison specs with the Z3 it seems the tech specs (bar the .3" larger screen but inferior rear camera) are identical - so can I ask why you chose these over say the Z3? I ask as buying this and a sim only contract works...
