Help this young teen with downpipes!!

TheYuriPanda · 12-04-2014, 10:01 AM

I just ordered my downpipes for my 335xi. I'm in aurora Colorado, was wondering if anyone could help me install? My bother said he could help me but he has to finish his car first, he's rebuilding his s2000 and idk what he's done and what he needs to do left. I should be getting them this Saturday. I'm 17, never done this kinda work on cars but I want to learn.
I don't have money to have a shop install them.

Your most likely going to need some help man. The install on an XI is sort of a PIA. I had to cut my stockers out but was able to sell them for scrap at a good return. Congrats on the car at 17!

It has to be a girl, otherwise he would know what is left to be done on his brother's car. Only girls are that ignorant imo.

Or my brothers car is at his house and we don't live in the same place. And we don't talk much to just be like "hey I've been working on my car for a year but let me update you on every little thing."

life advice, never start a conversation of with "Hey Im this age __" There will always be negative connotations and it is not relevant to anything.

Advice: Go to racetrack, learn to drive. Then modify.

It is. I don't have money to be spending to take it to a shop and get it installed costing 400$.. Don't know how many times people tell me to take classes on driving just because of my age. Your post has nothing to do with what I need help with and am asking. Thanks for the post anyways. Considering it is also winter here in Colorado. And NO track or strip will be open lol.

save up for the install...xi is NO fun. Certain things are worth paying to have done;this is one of them.

Jklad · 12-04-2014, 09:22 PM

Honestly, if you don't have funds for a dp install, I would advise saving any extra funds you do have for the inevitable large number of repairs you'll need while owning an n54!!
