I’m finally, after 4 years of ownership, going to do some real upgrading to the E90. My 335i has been sad lately and deserves some love and attention.

She’s been driving around with a minor leak in the driver’s side front strut, which I was unable to fix for a little bit for monetary and family reasons, but I now have a nice new set of Bilsteins arriving today that will be put on on Monday! I would’ve loved to try my hand at doing it myself, but I don’t really want to mess with springs and stuff. I’m not ready for those tense moments (heh).

I can’t wait to see how it will improve the handling though!

Springs are easy! Oh, there’ll be tense moments, ones that might make you recoil, but you’ll bounce back. Once you get out some of that tension, perhaps find some support, the job will be done and you can live in harmony with your car. And knowing you did a job well, you can hold your head up high and strut.

Haha no idea! Hopefully I’ll find out this afternoon after they are delivered. I did get some Turner Motorsport stickers though, if that helps!
