finally got an evo!

so the lease on my 2004 325xi just ended a couple weeks ago and i was about to get the new 3 series coupe, but i ended up choosing a ww evo ix mr instead and i couldn't be any happier.

Oh one more thing... i tried removing the front license plate bracket and i got one of the screws out, but the other two wont come out. every time i try to unscrew them, the rubber stopper in the bumper just keeps going around with the screw. what can i do? do i need to remove the bumper to take the stupid bracket off? help me out! haha thanks guys.

-Phil

I don't really have any set plans yet. theres a lot of stuff i'd like to do, but i'm gonna take it slow. i want to get comfortable with stock performance first and i'm trying to pay off the rest of the car within the next year or two so i'm gonna be a little tight on cash anyways. i have a feeling i'm gonna be spending a lot of money on tuning the evo once my car payments are over. haha
