I have the same floor liners - I'm not crazy about them (too slippery when wet), and have casually thought about replacing them with rubber mats - but in any case, I misplaced the anchors the year after I bought them. I contacted Weathertech and they shipped out replacements at no cost.
I love the look of the staggered 18" style 246 wheels but I'm not liking the feel of the high performance run flat summer tires on worn suspension. Not enough sidewall.
Thus, I've posted the wheel and tires I grabbed from FBM... back on FBM.
Will see what happens next. Also stumbled across a guy called Strut Monkey online who sells pre-assembled suspension kits with all the bump stops and misc hardware. Soup to nuts. Price appears to be barely more than the sum of the parts and very convenient. He seems to run a sale on Black Friday so going to keep an eye on that.

They just did the same for me!
Weekend update: new Bosch wipers, new stickers and a new CEL.
FCP Euro order placed. Gas cap, leak detection pump, grommet and filter.
Still wearing the staggered wheels and run flats.
Money light resolved.
Picked up a E90 Haynes manual a couple weeks ago. Replaced:
Fuel tank cap (Blau 16117222391)
Leak detection pump & grommet (Bosch 16137193479, BMW 16131183912),
Engine air filter (Mann C27114). What a goofy bit of packaging this airbox is! Fortunately even though it's a pain in the ass, it did a great job capturing a ton of salty sand that made the trip from FL to GA.
also purchased but didn’t install a “leak detection pump filter” (BMW 16137439425) from FCP Euro. It appears to be a vapor canister filter but I'm not sure where this canister is located. The canister I pulled to swap the pump appears to be a sealed unit.
Anyone?
What EVAP code are you getting? Every once and a while I get a close gas cap message and eventually a CEL but it is very intermittent. Following along to see how you make out as I haven't really dug into my issue yet.
In reply to adam525i :
2A17 DME: DMTL, system fault.
Replacing the leak detection pump seems to have resolved the CEL.
One other symptom I noticed before the CEL that my subsequent reading says could be related... was the fuel tank would never fill fully on the gauge. It would stop at about 7/8 full. During a very short test drive, I filled it yesterday and got it to about 15/16 so I will see how it does after some additional miles.

I never installed them, then sold my E92 a couple weeks ago and these were not included in sale.
Acquired Whiteline subframe bushing inserts for the price of a future beverage. Thanks Angry!
