You usually can't polish a chrome wheel. The process to properly remove the chrome coating is expensive and only done by a few shops.

*update* January
Pulled the engine.... Did EVERY seal Possible, oh yea No more Slush box!
BTW if anyone knows how to flash a dme to manual please let me know


Fresh Magma Carpet to match door panels while tranny was out might as well


*Update* February
Decided I was tired of having mixed matched black body panels ( hood and door etc) So i got a local friend of mine to spray it E46 m3 JET BLACK.

New Front grill panel and New front bumper and support was must. Also a oem hood instead of the cheap china one previous own had put on.
(I noticed my vaders werent protected during this process..)

Got the car back! Ran out of paint so the top didnt get sprayed ... will be dropping it off on the 24th to finished the job in time enough for cars and coffee


Also these bad boys show'd up



Scored this on ebay for 150$...
hopefully this will solve my CEL issue swapping the auto for a 5 speed. Does anyone know if i need to remove the auto computer all toggether if I used this flashed ECU?

What I meant by polish, is to strip the paint off of them with chemicals, then use fine sandpaper to bring the metal to a shine. Then use polishing compounds for a reflective finish. I'm sure there is more information online if you look around.

I found a company here in houston that swears up and down they can blast the chrome off for 50$ a wheel... really considering this... Im at the point where i might a well just refinshed them myself once they're bear metal.

So i'd been wrecking my brain trying to figure out how to incorporate a android tablet in my car and make it look stock... this is what i can up with. ties in with my stereo through bluetooth.

Was it difficult installing the new carpet? I'm thinking of doing the same thing.

on a scale of 1 to 10.... easily a 8.5....I do not recommend it. The worst part is how much you have to remove and you most likely will break your gas pedal (plastic). you just have to take your time.
