^^^ I'll try. 
I would love to see the multicolored fogs - not sure what that is...
Motored to work in the Kid today. He's been cooped up with his leaky water pump, but with the sun shining today and the alleged blizzard coming, I had to do it. All I can say is aaaahhhhhhhhh. I don't know how the rest of the world commutes in cookie cutter marshmallow cars.

Just dropped GoDammit off at the dealer for service, oil change, check fluids, and timing chain tensioner, and check brake pads. Boring stuff, but at least when I get her home I can re-install the AP

I see you have an R53 like me. I am about to buy a new set myself. Second set since ditching the run flats at 25K miles. I put on a set of Kumo all seasons. Nice when new but, with 30k miles the noise is getting bad. I am currious to know how many miles you have now and what brand you went with. Cheers!!

Any thoughts on these fitting second generation Mini's? Does the bulb go in at a different angle or anything? They say that they are longer and we need to check clearance. Any help would be appreciated as I'd like to get these if it checks out. Thanks.

Just did a Seafoam treatment. Very happy with the $8 investment to avoid carbon build up. The cars running even smoother than its normally smooth self.
Here's the link to my video of the process:

If I was able to get her in the house and the couch outside it would have been done . Wife wasn't having that lol. I did get the ok to get new tires. Good bye run flats ! They absolutely sucked in just a lil bit of snow. I had to leave it in first gear , get out and push in barely any snow
Don't remind me my girlfriend has been begging me to drive to San Fran right now! :-(

I'll have to get some for you - he's not a NAM'er. I'm helping him out with a run on March 10 and we're supposed to get together again for another dry run. I'll try and do a proper photo shoot then. The car is amazing. From every angle.
