I didn't buy anything but gave Roxanne a 3 hour detailing of all reachable surfaces under the hood. Lots of elbow grease, waterless wash, Armourall and many terry rags.

Yesterday I turned the key and nothing happened. Put a dvm on the terminals for 2.3 dcv; 2016 battery. Bought Roxanne a new Interstate battery. Also ordered a Schumacher SP 1296 tender.

I bought a full set of mudflaps on eBay. I realize that I won't be able to use the rear ones on my 2002, but the fronts will work just fine to keep the mud splashes off of the side of my car this winter.

Autumn is here, so it was a must to design, make and install a leaf rake at the end of the coupe. It has also apparatus that utilises downforce, so that should help lifting the sticky leaves further from the ground.
Today bought 2 hours of time in DIY-hall and installed it finally.

Just a set of roadstars for a ridiculously low price. Now I have to decide whether I swap z4 wheel hubs on the back to make these work or find someone to trade the back for a square set.

I may have my hands on a set here in the coming weeks FS, and you could resell the set of 4 rears to an E36 stanceboi.
I bought a GESI highflow cat to finally try and get my full exhaust work finished and get the headers off the shelf I've had for 6-7 years

Hi Robb. No urgency on my side so let me know if that’s an option.

on the complete other end of the spectrum, i got a front turn signal pigtail from the junk yard to finally keep the connector from slipping out lmao
btw if anyone else’s clip happens to be broken, E39s have the same style connectors as ours - can’t remember if it was a pre or post face lift tho

It's not a myth, 10mm sockets grow legs and walk away, just like the head in John Carpenter's "The Thing". If you don't know, Harbor Freight came up with an answer to this age-old problem. So today for my toolbox, I got a 10mm socket set. Note, as far as I know, they don't offer complete sets of any other size, just 10mm. A buyer at HF must have realized there would be a demand.

I noticed lately that the engine was starting a little harder (longer crank than usual) so I ordered new coils with plug boots. Looked online and bmw coils are made in china now. I found dinan coils with boots for the same price or less and swapped them out. Definitely made a difference with starting and driving. They may be china made(aren’t marked) but we’ll see how they do.

Bought all the OE bits to locate Bluetooth mic & sunroof switch (mine pops out of headliner constantly) to the roof. Borrowed photo, but should look like this when finished:
