.: 8 months later, she's back! :.
...And she needed some serious lovin!
Got back after my semester ended, reinstated insurance on the ride for two weeks and took her to Stance Factory for some much needed care before heading down to Deal's Gap this weekend! First start since XMas and she purred like being driven yesterday. *sigh* I have missed this car.
-OEM M3 mirrors with split Euro glass
-New tires all around (Michelin Pilot Sport 2 - 225/35/19F 235/35/19R)
-New passenger side front control arm
-New driver+passenger side front control arm bushings
-4 wheel alignment (my #s were WAY off before - it's astonishing I didn't chew through my tires last summer)
-New LCM with European coding (no corner lights, high beams + fogs enabled)
-Changed engine and transmission oils
-Fixed annoying passenger side window rattle/popping noises (there was NO bolt holding the rail guide in place!)
It's great how tight the steering and suspension feels now. God damn, I'm in love with this car all over again - especially after 8 months of complete withdrawal!
Anyways, here are some pics! And it rained

Yello bbk, that would be interesting but silver or black would flow with the car more IMO but I have seen yellow bbk on a silver m3 and looked decent, anyways hope to see you at the opening cruise!

Although I like my car's look to be subtle, silver calipers on a silver car are too mundane IMO. I want the yellow to pop off the wheels!
