Thanks for the heads up 525iT Feen. Will try to adjust size of image so I can attach as a file.
Pic of my beast with factory 'nudge bar'. Anyone else with this option? I'm thinking of adding an LED light bar, to assist in identifying the numerous 'roos on my night drives. They can cause an awful amount of damage to a car!

The outcome of hitting a 70Kg (150 lb) kangaroo in a Z4 at 225 km/h...

I keep my glass clayed and sealed as well, but it doesn't help with snow/sludge buildup during the winter, which is when I do most of my driving. Not that I need to see out of it, I just enjoy watching the idiots behind me spin out and hit the ditch.

Air bag door inserts came, I thought 4x.xx was alot, they are better quality then the originals.

Also, reading a story in the latest Road & Track about Frank Stephenson, Mclaren design director came across this.

Installed new all weather mats. I went with OEM bmw ones purchased off amazon. They are nicer in person then I thought from pictures. I much prefer them compared to the weather tech ones which I found somewhat cheap feeling

I like the OE all weather mats too. I don't know how much they are on amazon, but they were only like $70 shipped on ebay. Totally worth it

Took my car to the muffler shop to have the x-pipe installed. Interestingly the inlet side of the muffler is 2 1/8" and the outlet is 2". Bought the 2 1/4" Magnaflow x-pipe and with a little flaring of added tubing etc. the install went well. Note to others considering this mod - the couplings post manifolds need to be loosened to drop the exhaust pipes enough to weld around the tops. Ensure the person doing this pulls the excess cable for the 02 sensors BEFORE he drops the pipes. Thankfully I was watching & helping during the process (most are not permitted in the workshop area but it was a friend who did the job) so immediately saw what was about to happen and pulled the slack before anything broke.
The 4.4i sound quite nice now, with a bit of rasp to the exhaust note, not dissimilar to the Corsa system I have on my 6.1 Hemi. No noticeable drone from inside the cabin, but a definite 'note' from outside. Very happy!

changed my lower temperature sensor and cleaned the bonnet alarm switch

New Brakes (Rotors, Pads, Sensors) all around, Brake Fluid Flush, New Front Lower Control Arms, Road Forced balanced all 4 Wheels, another Alignment, Driver Door Seal.

Next Month... Rear Sub-Frame Bushings.

Power steering pump reservoir and fresh fully synthetic ATF. Discovered the source of the leaking hose from reservoir - PO had overtightened clamp, resulting in broken threads/loose clamp. Replaced with new hose clamp and checked for leaks - all good now.
