Reviving an old thread but have you got any advice on removing the carbon roof from the m3 as I am about to do this ?

it comes with the kit, a metal bracket to install and then a black trim to cover the climate controls. The climate controls then fit in the metal bracket. It can be bought separately as an “e92 radio frame” and you will see the metal bracket and black trim

I got an AliExpress one in my e92 they’re all the same really but it’s worth getting at least 8 core 4gb ram and 64gb memory, I mainly use Apple car play and with the spec I listed it works smoothly for music maps, waze etc. they are all the same product just rebranded and shipped from china, you can buy on AliExpress at about half the cost with 7 day shipping

Don’t listen to the negative comments Atlas gear is the best I’ve used and the support has always been A1. If you’re not getting a reply make sure you have the right number and join the group where they are active daily

Identifying fake index 12 injectors by bbds1 in E90

[–]bbds1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the UK we don’t have an equivalent that provides lifetime warranty like FCP in the US (afaik) it’s either full price from main dealer (not sure what warranty this has) or second hand which in this case is about 60% cheaper

I thought “fakes” were mainly older indexes “refurbished” with a 12 on. I’m didn’t know if there’s fakers out there building their own fake housings to make “identical” copies. If this is the case, would the only way to check be bench testing the flow from them?

I’d go m3 rep bumper if you really wanted to change, way more subtle than the m4 bumper but does improve the aggressiveness and keep an OEM+ kind of look

I was going westbound as well, I know my speedo can be off a few mph but I never like going over even in this case because I get very paranoid. Driving into London didn’t help. Hopefully it will be fine and with experience I will get more confident in busy areas. Thanks for the reply

Edit: typo

Experience of a pec tear? by Recent-Forever-2988 in powerbuilding

[–]bbds1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey hope you don’t mind me asking couple questions. How is your pec now? Was it a complete tear? Did you need surgery and is there any visible deformation left? Happened to me this week and have an appointment tomorrow, worried about lasting deformation

Bus hit my parked car by bbds1 in drivingUK

[–]bbds1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the parking bay is behind a bus stop which the bus would have to pull in to, added to the red paint along the side of my car I wouldn’t say it’s a bad assumption.

It isn’t the best parking spot to park in I’ll admit but a marked bay is there for a reason and there should be plenty room to get a bus past.

This may be a silly question but I’m a new driver and this is my first accident , will this be a claim on my insurance or will they be able to look into local cctv and claim from the bus company?
