What did you do to your 5 series today?

Finished installing the yellow DRLs.

Trying to properly take the picture of the angel lights at night but when angels are visible everything else is dark

Then it's highly doubtful that you purchased "the same" Original BMW Accessory M Performance Pedal Facing Retrofit kit for the F10.

-See Dealer Install Instructions attached.

Fixed a little chip in the glass today. I maaaay have made it worse by causing a small crack to expand when I was pushing down on the fill device. Will know soon enough...

Funny you should say that. About 6 years ago, I brought my car in to have a large chip repaired. The chip repair ended up causing a large crack to form while the shop was doing it. The shop (one of the usual windshield repair / replace shops) replaced my windshield for free! They even threw in some extra wiper blades.

Sounds like a good shop!!!
I'm hoping this little crack (hairline, really slight) is stable and doesn't grow any. What is really frustrating is the chip was pretty small, maybe 4mm or so and could have been ignored easily.

Sigh...

Looked at the battery positive cable underfloor and it did not look too good. It's probably time for a new cable

I bought a 2011 535i. I’m excited to start modding it. I had some spare wheels that I put on my e60 that were just collecting dust in my shed since my e60 has different wheels now. I was told they wouldn’t fit but they do and it’s very flush. 20x9 20 offset in front and 20x10 20 offset in the rear. Name: IMG_0143.jpg
