New member saying what's up!

Hey guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself real quick. I'm really good friends with trancemission and he's been hounding me to join up so here I am. While I don't own an Acura, I'm a general car nut and really enjoy the enthusiast community. Hope to get to know you guys!

I've got a slightly modified 2010 BMW 335i Coupe. I've had the car for two years now and absolutely love it. Once I started modding it, I couldn't stop and am just about "done" with it. I daily drive it as well as take it to the track and autocross with it. Anyway, you guys take it easy and enjoy the pic!

Body color painted reflectors
Gloss black '335i' badge

Engine & Performance
Stett Performance cold air intake
Stett Performance charge pipe
TiAL blow-off valve
ETS 5" FMIC

So sorry to hear...I should have figured this being that you don't have a 6MT, at least re-matching isn't a problem for you..

Hi wookie

Welcome to Acurazine. Or is it Bimmerzine. For a few of us it's F150zine. Either way, enjoy your time here!
