Yes. I have had this happen once after she was parked for a week or so in the garage. It was like the steering was locked in place and refused to move. After a mild panic attack and a jiggle of the steering wheel, she decided to play ball. I know my old car has a steering lock and I figured this...
Curious to know why you want to remove it?
Also, whenever I see removing wings mentioned, I see people talking about replacing the whole trunk lid which seems a bit drastic to me - surely it can just be patched and repainted.
And while it wouldn't be my first or seventeenth choice, you could...
Another ambivalent "review."
It's like they don't actually want to flat out say what they think because one or more manufacturers will get upset. ? And I'm getting really sick of the continuous "I'm just so glad we have these cars" bullshit as if it's an excuse for whatever problems a car...
Thanks mate! Being lowered makes it hard to compare as I'm at stock height but if it's just a 1/2 inch drop I may have to buy this lip too. Is there any end to the amount of money I can spend on this car? FML.
Just circling back to this thread as it appeared in my feed and probably needs a bookend.
I indeed ended up with an AWE Non-Resonated exhaust (with chrome tips). The exhaust has been on the car for nearly two months now and well.. it's a game changer. The car sounds just about perfect - idle...
Now that I have pulled the trigger on the wing, I have a question about the front lip..

Yeah.. I thought it had been dropped at birth at first. It's worse when you look at it off the car, especially when you compare it to an aftermarket one that looks schmick.

Poetry aside, just hit up a BMW dealer.. at around a 2000% mark-up (≈$32AUD), last I checked.
Dude.. I did the exact same thing when installing my JB+
I have ordered one of these just for the pesky clip. I can't confirm it's an exact fit as its still en-route but it looks about right. And being AliExpress, the price is, erm.. always right!
Just be warned that
AliExpress can take a...
Based on what I read on here previously I opted for the free windscreen replacement as part of my car insurance. Having said this, I've driven around 4,000km and so far, no issues.
The sooner you Americans realize that special editions are not that special and just a marketing scam, the sooner you will stop seeing ridiculous dealer mark-ups. ?♂️
Ugh.. Too much effort for me - May as well replace the whole steering wheel at that point. An S would look nice but I'm too busy looking at the road in any case. ?♂️
