Why not just wrap them with vinyl?

 

[paultantk]

Never got around to it yet

 

[paultantk]

Something's up with the car, starts, immediately chokes and dies... can idle quite roughly with the MAF unplugged... hmm. Time to Banyak Masuk Workshop again!

 

[bimmerholic]

too much of FI air into the cylinders perhaps.... sampai it's choking...

hopefully nothing major....

 

[Eggie86]

Sorry to hear about that. Really costing lots of money to repair and maintain eh?? But once you have it back; oh, what a joy! :top:

 

[paultantk]

WTF, damn stupid... apparently my fuel level sensor is wonky and the car actually had no petrol.

Didn't it show it's low on fuel (close to 0) on the gauge?

 

[paultantk]

No, the float sensor was faulty

Oh gosh. Hope the problem has been remedied Paul. Hope you'll have your pride and joy back soon. :top:

What's the price for float sensor??

I'd actually prefer something stupid like that to happen, rather than something thats not stupid but costs thousands to rectify.

Thank god its only a float, no?

 

[paultantk]

I have to agree!

Forgot to update this...

This is how the car looks like now. Got original glossy black window trim on the outside and inside as well - a lot of people spray and leave the inside chrome. And silver trim inside.

 

[bmw7833]

Hi bro, your car looks great except the seat, mine too. just wondering why the seat quality of BMW always get worn out so quickly. my ride is a 9 year old E39 and the seat apparently much worse than my dad's 21 years old Merc, not to say my 7 year old Camry which still in very good shape. the inner foam quality just not there.
