My car is here

[binnkim]

I received my car yesterday but I haven't had a chance to announce this to the forum.

I now have '09 black 135i !!!!

Forgive me for having no photos. I'm writing this on my phone.

Anyway, I have a couple of questions for the GTA 1addict-ers. I would like to have two things done.
1. Tint my windows
2. Matt black paint(?) the rims.

I am such a noob since this is my official first car. Where can I have these done at reasonable price with superb quality?


Thanks in advance.

Nice first car. My first car had 96 HP the day it rolled off the line.

Enjoy her and be careful, hear she has quite a kick to her.

Tint guys in York region just off of Jane and the 407 do a great job. As for rims, I don't know!

Have you heard of Autolink? I have done some research and it looks like autolink is one of the best tint company within GTa.

Thanks

They seem reputable. They also have the same price point as tint guys somewhat. Do it! Tint away at autolinks. And about your pictures. If you look at the top of the area you type there is a tool bar. Just click the little paperclip that is next to the smiley face and you'll be able to upload photos through the window that pops up.

Hope that helps!

I heard great things from Thornhill Tints from family, friends and coworkers.

As well, look into powder coating your rims instead of just painting. Ironically, my rims are currently being powder coated right now in Semi-Gloss Black (Satin Black) with new rubber!

The BMWTrueNorth Facebook group has some listings for Powder Coating rims depending where you are. My rims are currently at Precision (simplytire sent my rims to them). But I also seen listings for Metal Coaters in Mississauga.

Welcome!

Thank you for a good tip. I will definitely look into powder coating my rims.

I hope my photos are viewable now.

Yes, both of them are.

A little tip... make the photo size around 200mb to 400mb...(a little larger than what you posted) That is the best size for posting to our forum.

I hope you meant KB and not MB. 200MB is huge! My dlsr shot in RAW is no where near 200MB lol

Lets see if the app helps
Fresh photo.
