MOD Flu Epidemic

So Still have a serious case of the MOD flu.. think I'll be feeling better though soon... after a few more things. 1 being the Dinan software - stage 2 probably since i ended up getting the AFE CAI stage 2, Sound clip below. The other thing I need is the Alpine KCA-410c so I can put in the alpine changer I got. Sirius module waiting at fedex for me - will pick that up tues morning.

So.. onto the most recent mods...

AFE CAI Stage 2:

YouTube - BMW X5 E53 Cold Air Intake System (Stage 2) by aFe ( Cartreats.com)

A friend of mine took the video, who sold me the CAI. He also put in the stage 1, and this link they rev the engine: YouTube - BMW X5 E53 Cold Air Intake System by aFe (stage 1) - love the way my car sounds with CAI and X-pipe.

SMG Paddle Shift:



Blue G2 Caliper Paint:



Invision DVD Headrests:
I had a thread earlier re the leather on headrests, came out great it matches colour great. different leather texture though, not bothering me enough to make me not install.


M-Tech Carbon Fiber Pedals

thanks. Search on ebay for G2 caliper paint. They have all different kinds of colors. It's an epoxy paint so i've heard it stays on forever.
