1 Month after taking ownership
Current Mileage: 54,557 Previous owner may have had a case of roadrage and bang the hell out of the steering wheel roundel so I replaced with CF:  Misfires have been diagnosed so I went and got me these NGK Iridiums for a quick install.  Then I had feathers and other garbage in my air filter, seems like a bird built a nest in there so I replaced with K&N filter: Improved MPG and overall performance along with the spark plug change. Today before coming to work as the good employee that I am, I stopped by to get Mobil 1 5w30 oil change: Oil was black and filter was filthy. Reduced engine noise, and I was a bit late for work  Arrived in the mail yesterday and today are these: Weekend project for me.   Also, my buddy will bring some BMW coolant tomorrow so I can flush the radiator. That's all folks.

I did not change the steering wheel..just the roundel. The previous owner probably bang on it too hard. And it's easy as prying off the old one and sticking on the new one.

steering wheel is pretty easy.. the hardest part is getting the airbag off (from the round sport at least) and then the bolt that holds the steering wheel on.

completed the gauge rings today and it took only a few minutes. The parts snap right onto position and man they look awesome. I also sprayed the intake with the BG intake system through the maf sensor while a friend press gently on the throttle to suck in all that stuff. The idle is a little better now. test drove it around for a few minutes to make sure it burns all that stuff. Couldn't do the coolant flush since my other friend didn't come through with the coolant. until next time.
