Ahhhhh, welcome back man! (I'm one of the newbies so i don't know you!)

Your X looks awesome my friend. Maybe show us a bewfore and after the 215 repair so we can all get a feel for what the outcome is like with wheel repair. I have some E46 wheels that need work too!

Hope to be at the tri-state meet this year. Not new to the E53 (we're on our second 3.0) but not been to a tri-state yet. Love to go....we just got the 4.8 front and rear done on the X and it looks awesome. Desperately trying to my (chrome) 22's with tires to get some 87's or 214's. Other mods will be basic like silver grills, tints, hitch and roof racks, cd changer etc.

Anyway, welcome home (I too am just back from business travel in Nashville, I know the feeling, happy to be back in good ol NJ)!

Nice seeing you're back man! I traded in the E53 but a G37x sedan. I'm still coming for the meet though! Can't wait to see the car man.

It's quite badass, especially with the 215s.
