grinding? more details please, maybe it can be fixed. would you put in the manual yourself? or take it to a shop to have it done?

I wish I took a picture of the exhaust system a customer ordered from that place in an effort to save money, which showed up about 3 weeks after it was paid for. The thing was dented up so badly, it was hardly an improvement over what was on the car. And the guy paid them ~ 175 bucks for it -- just the catback on a '90 535.

Then there's the SI board in my 325 that the previous owner of the car sourced from them...and the OBC...and the window switches. All parts that I'm having to replace again.

best, whit

Oh, thanks for the heads up Whit, I was thinking of ordering a few things from there.
