Your 1st purchase after the Bimmer?

Here's one I don't think we've done yet. What was the first thing you bought for your BMW after you got it (besides gas) - repairs, accessories or whatever?

For me, the repairs started almost immediately. I had to buy a headlight switch and a windshield washer fluid motor. This was a mere few days after I brought the car home.

first thing I did was put the wheels/tires from my old car on it.

first thing I bought for it was ZKW ellipsoids w/ DDE Plus. I had always wanted the sexy angel eyes and it seemed like everyone had them BUT me.
