Just finished a complete suspension overhaul + KW coilovers on my E92, but Bellevue BMW dealer wouldn't touch it for an alignment. Anyone know of a trustworthy shop that will correctly do alignment on bimmers with after-market suspension?

Yeah, that sounds like me. My wife just sold her old place in the Highlands and the West Lake Samm exit is my on/off point to work in Redmond.

Are you still in the '06 4.8is? I recall seeing a very slick black one on the 90 a couple weeks back, just before I bought mine. I tried to shadow in my M3 to get a better look but traffic didn't allow.

Tru line. They are a high end suspension shop. Be warned though, they'll really try to push for a corner balance since you have coilovers. They are pricey but their alignments are on point.

Thanks for the recommendation. They did a great job and at a very reasonable price.

Nice! I'll be sure to wave if I see you. I also have a silver pre-facelift with a roof rack delete (until it starts snowing).

Spotted a silver prefacelift with some non stock chrome wheels, iS rear diffuser, running boards, and iS exhaust in the side of 167. I was headed in the opposite direction. Hopefully the rest of your day goes better.

Hey Seattle wallahs, any one with the AGA N62 valve stem seal tool? Currently I'm using oil additives to stop the smoking and it's working really well, but I know this is not a long term solution. I have the rear subframe bushings tool so if any one wants to borrow it, feel free to ping me.
