[danewilson77]

[Mtnman]

Ill have some good ones later today or tomorrow.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

I like the ZHP Mafia on your trunk lid, DW.

[danewilson77]

Yeah.....as I was pushing the dirt into the wax....I was thinking of you...

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Good to know that dirt and wax remind you of me.

That sounds like a Hallmark card in the making, pal.

[pyreguy]

^ :rofl

I know I have some a seriously derty car right now, so I will be able to go get and post some soon. Here is a good one for now:

[Marcus-SanDiego]

I'm getting ready to hop in the white car. Will snap some pictures when I get to my destination.

[kayger12]

Yeah.....as I was pushing the dirt into the wax....I was thinking of you...

:rofl

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Yes. I am highly thought of, Keith. Bawahhaha.

[danewilson77]

Yes. I am highly thought of, Keith. Bawahhaha.

It was a compliment.....

[Marcus-SanDiego]

That's the way I took it. Dirt. Wax. Absolutely. No doubt a compliment. Hehe.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

[danewilson77]

Ghey....thinking srsly about deleting your post.

[pyreguy]

^ :rofl WOW

[Marcus-SanDiego]

You can't see the dirt in the first post? Look at the trunk lid. LOL!

P.S., this is dirty for my car. Relative, baby.

[danewilson77]

He knows I'm just jealous....

[az3579]

Seriously Marcus? :shifty

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Fine. Hehe. The trunk was really dirty, though. Lots of dirt sitting on it.

[kayger12]

Yeah-- if you're measuring in kilodaltons...

Keith, I appreciate that comment. I just learned a new word. Thanks mucho, amigo. Liberal arts major here (history).

[kayger12]

Haha-- Your welcome. Lover of history myself, but a bit more of a science buff.

I've always been a voracious reader, so I have a brain that's chock full of useless information. Combine that with some Adult ADD, and you've got a recipe for entertaining conversation...

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Which is why we get along so well. I imagine a lot of us, here at the forum, are like that. If we ever get together -- a group of us -- it will be entertaining.

Looking forward to the day.

[danewilson77]

Great drive here........unless you get stuck behind someone with NY plates...lol.

Icy as hell....stayed in 4th the whole time...max speed...55

I always get stuck behind someone......

I can never!!!!!

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Dane, is that video from the Droid?

If yes, how are you transferring it to your computer?

[kayger12]

That looks like a fun road with a dry road surface and no traffic...

[danewilson77]

When you go to your gallery......open up the driod.....and select the little lines (IDK how else to describe it). Then you will see "share" appear at the bottom. Click share....then upload to PB.....that easy.

I love the fact, when I take a pic with the droid it auto uploads to PB.....

[kayger12]

Agreed. PB app FTW!

Cool. Got it. Thanks.

This was later in the day that it stopped snowing. It was a LOT worse the day before, but somehow self "cleaned" itself, despite it still being filthy.
I'm sure you guys would get a kick out of the last one. :)

[Mtnman]

.Tell me the headlight produces the "batman" effect and throws a zhpmafia shadow in front of you!

[az3579]

If only. :(

[Marcus-SanDiego]

That is classic, BP. Love it.

Car is looking so Damn sexy.......you gonna go B/W emblems? You shadowed your 330i.....with rattlecan?

[pyreguy]

You can buy black emblems. I really like the wheels on your car BP. Thats gotta be my favorite Imola here... :biggrin

[danewilson77]

I rattlecanned em on my 325i....I think they came out great.....

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Looks pretty good, DW.

[az3579]

No sir, those are gloss back emblems. Not a rattlecan job. Not doing B/W emblems because I don't have a BMW CCA grille badge in B/W to match. Plus, I've never really given it any thought...


Thats gotta be my favorite Imola here... :biggrin

I've never heard that before. lol
I always thought Dane's had the most character...


I rattlecanned em on my 325i....I think they came out great.....

They did come out great. They look fantastic on a silver car. On mine, not so much; you can't really see the 330i that well. I was thinking of taking off the 330i altogether...

[Marcus-SanDiego]

I was thinking of taking the 330i altogether...

It would look great, BP.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/marcussandiego/MarkTandemShots045.jpg

Dhu eeet.

[pyreguy]

Yeah, I was gonna black mine out, and if I had any other color I would have. I just removed it the first afternoon I had the car.

Dane's car had me thinking about a roof rack all the way home today. I think I'm gonna look into that early next year. I love the way it sets the car off.

[danewilson77]

De-badge FTW!!!

[danewilson77]

Would look delicious on a black zhp!!!!!

Did you see the pic, when I had it on the 330Ci?

Didnt have the fairing though.......kinda throws it off....

[pyreguy]

show me again!

[danewilson77]

I deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

[pyreguy]

Definitely very cool. Me likes.

[Mtnman]

Dang. I bought a new thule areo rack with faring this summer with foot packs for both cars. Left it on the wifes car and may not see it again. I hope I took some pics I can dig up and post. I like the rack style too.

[az3579]

The rack is cool and all, but I don't want to take the minor fuel economy hit, nor do I want something on the car that I'm never going to use...
Does look really badass though.

[pyreguy]

Are all the aero thules aluminum color? I would have to have black. I would have to paint it.

[gr330zhp]

Like you all know the ZHP is away,

But if I post pics of the Jetta, it will be the dirtiest here by far!!

And it got a FULL detail last week, and each week prior to that :shifty

Pff Northeast and its love for salt.....

Marcus, your 335i is soooo sexy!!

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Thanks, Stathi, for not taking a shot at me for not having a very dirty car. Haha.

And thanks for the compliment.

[gr330zhp]

Haha well I love clean cars, both in appearance and actual cleanliness especially...

Soo I dont mind seeing it clean haha

David, I think you're winning with the dirtiest car right now.

Keep those ZHP Mafia shots coming, though. Love it.

[danewilson77]

That car is nasty derty......I love eeeet.

[Mtnman]

Its a DD. This is what happens. It cleaned up nicely though for the ZHPMafia meet. Nothing better than a toy that is flexible.

[alexandre]

Gonna bump this as I do have some good pics.

After a ski trip.

[BRGcoopahS]

It seems you have some fecal matter on your bmw.

[alexandre]

It seems you have some fecal matter on your bmw.

LOL. Ice, slush, sand and ice mixed together, fortunately.

[Rovert]

No that's a fender-stash. It grows and darkens as more milage is put on. Hahaha

BTW your wipers are a little high for rest position? Passenger isn't wiping very effeciently. LOL

[alexandre]

Yeah I have rainx wipers and passenger side is too long, so they go back up automatically. Stupid PO. Have to fix that ASAP but they wipe fine!

[Oli77]

Alexandre, you win derty car thread!

[danewilson77]

Yeah... Those wipers need adjusted.

Thanks for posting pics so we could critique your wiper ops.

I saw my ZHP the other day - it was COVERED in salt....so sad - I had her for 7 years and it was never exposed to salt...
