Drove very slowly on my way to work for the first time since my F Sport freshly custom painted bumper install haha. Have to wait a couple weeks before I can clear bra it so being a grandpa of driver in the mean time smh...
Today I decided to follow a DIY curb rash repair originally posted by E46CT. I wasnt going for perfection so im ok with the results, but from a distance it looks significantly better than it did before i "repaired" it. I think where i went wrong was 1. not letting the filler thoroughly dry ( i let it dry for 30mins), and 2. not doing a good job of sanding. This was my first attempt at anything like this, so i'll know what to do next time.

Loving the Pirelli's, SW15LS recommended the tires to me, and they were also top rated on Tirerack's website. I had a tough time choosing between the Michellin's and the Pirelli's, but im happy with my decision.
They always get compliments when people come in the car. The creases are a little hard to get out due to shipping. I bought mine from Aliexpress. Was considering them for my GS, but don't think they make them for AWD.

do you notice any difference in road noise? I'm looking for some really quite ires and I've been recommend the P7's.
I bought this car used and it had the Michellin MX.... The car had 28,000 miles and the tires had maybe 5,000 miles left on them, so i replaced them with the P7's. I think that any tire this size and profile will have some road noise, but the P'7's are quiet and ride smoothly.
