I ordered grills to replace these on my car, a 2011 335is but they didnt fit. I will link what i ordered as well. is this not a factory bumper?

#

only replacling cus a bracket is broke on one of them

#

or is that the wrong part?

fathom brook
#

I dont remember that gen having a package for aero trim like the front splitter

#

It doesnt look factory

#

I know the F80 did from the factory

#

But also i think what ever you bought should fit its probably defective if its 1 bracket broken

hollow radish
#

the new ones that came are not broken. but the brackets dont line up and they are slightly shorter

fathom brook
#

Confirm with the vendor then. Maybe you got an M one and not for the non M model

hollow radish

#

Time to call them up and let them know

#

95 is really cheap too its kind of sus

hollow radish

,$100 is very average. I think I figured it out

It's just the black inserts btw

open sigil
#

that does look like the factory bumper

#

i’m not sure

#

maybe check on bimmerpost e90 group

the product itself is probably just defective, a lot of these smaller mods are just repackaged chinese stuff

@open sigil I let my X3 sit for the winter cause I got busy with work and now I gotta do the rotors cause they are so rusted out 😭 I took it on a drive after I did a oil change and it’s so bad it’ll be a cool $800 to do it myself not including a couple of the tools I’ll need.

#

Also cause this winter was actually so bad and driving the X3 was not fun

open sigil
#

i’m trying to figure out what brake pads i need

#

i don’t have the m sport brakes, but the number on the back of the rotor comes back to m sport brakes when i google it

#

so i’m thinking “m sport brakes” just means they’re painted

#

and the m performance is the actual upgraded one

fathom brook
#

800 seems like a lot

frosty snow
#

You should upgrade ur brakes if u already upped ur power

#

Otherwise you just end up like every other bmw on the internet that doesn’t have any stopping power lol

open sigil
#

the m performance brakes from the m550i and 7 series is a direct fit for my car

#

i wanna upgrade to those but it’s $$$

#

4 to 6 piston rotor on the front not sure about the rear

#

and 348 mm disc to 395 on the front

fathom brook
#

You dont need the brembo calipers and pads?

open sigil
#

most bmw calipers are brembo

#

the ones on my car currently have the brembo stamp on the back, i assume for most models too

#

my car doesnt make crazy power though never had an issue with stopping power

fathom brook
#

Its also about heat and the brake fluid you use too

#

You should start putting in track fluid and change it every 1-2 years

#

I just put in Castrol React SRF Brake Fluid 15AFA4 in the corvette and the stopping power is much better (or its cause i put in new fresh fluid after 3 years)

open sigil

probably has to do with it being 3 years

Oh I set that all up right away, it’s great.

I like it but was surprised even single digit temps affect its range quite a bit - having to stop so often to charge is annoying but at least they charge so quick now.

some of my driving it won’t be suitable at all for; but my truck is still around. Especially -30c highway driving I have a feeling will be an issue. Apparently our elevation up here hurts it too.

However- main motivation was saving money, just this summer alone and I priced gas reasonably lower then where it is right now and used the highest supercharging rate I could find - it should save me 3100$ over the summer minimum

#

And that’s just the summer
And not taking into account home charging, charging at the in laws, or campgrounds
And that I’m learning there are some other ways to charge it cheaper

fathom brook
#

Yup im saving a ton right now with the high gas prices driving the tesla, but im not too impacted since gas was always high during 2021-23

#

Also since my tesla is a lease id rather throw the miles on that car and not the corvette

iron hornet

Got 37k for the van on trade in and paid 42.5 for the Tesla

Van had 86,000km Tesla has 35,000km

(Sask Government Insurance, who doubles as our ServiceOntario/MTO)

because my truck is deleted, which is completely legal in the registered jurisdiction, and allowed in Ontario for 90 days as a visitor, i beat the tickets too

They had to return my plates to me, they are not allowed to pull out of province plates without authorization from Saskatchewan

was in the middle of the night too

he didnt realize my car had a dashcam recording audio, but i had it mounted behind the mirror stealth

#

Family member got into accident just tapping a parked car in tight parallel parking one way road

iron hornet

they tried that, but generally when someone tries to pull me over i pull into a parking lot, especially out there

#

since they cant force it to be towed since its on private property at that point

frosty snow

They charged them with : failing to yield, careless driving, reckless driving causing accident, and distracted driving

#

It was a fender bender in tight parallel parking…

Yield for what???🤣🤣🤣

he even tried to call the company my truck was registered too the one time i took a company truck out there asking if they knew their truck was in Ontario

also pulled over for a deleted diesel by CHP

which again - Canadian vehicles exempt from EPA laws when visiting the USA
