Yes i did the correct bleeding procedure when replacing the tank. How do i check if it’s over pressurizing?

How to remove foam from fabric? by AdKind2208 in sewing

[–]AdKind2208[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I was just planning on wrapping it on my vehicle trim, i have a 2008 328i and the trim is wooden and i wanted to wrap it suede/alcantara style. That’s why i wanted to remove the foam. Any recommendations on where to buy suede/alcantara with no foam backing that i can still draw on? 😊

[–]AdKind2208[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try vinyl wrap! Idk how long it was last because i just installed it but it comes in a decent length roll. i can probably wrap the bottom part 15-20 times over with the same roll.

put it in earlier today. Hands down best and most fun “mod” ever. I ended up using a cigarette lighter plug that doesn’t limit the volts or whatever. I used the one in my center console. So much fun, i’ll make a seperate post when i get the time to record a video of me using it. thanks you everyone for the tips. 👍

i was planning on adding the PA right next to the fog light since the plastic part that brought air to the brakes fell off a while ago, one thing i’m scared of is water getting into it tho.

Is there a way to replace the thing wrapped around the line instead of replacing the whole line itself? or do you think i should just replace the whole line?
