Any chance I'll see this car at The Vintage this May?

I BUY/SELL REFURBISHED CM5907s & CM5908s
HOWTOs:
DB vert plastic bumpers
OEM Keys
MTech1 docs
88 ix Lach/Card
91 ic Calypso 3.1
86 Cosmo 2.7
OEM+ or bust!
reelizmpro: I will always be an e30 guy.. I still do all of my own labor
TrentW: There's just something so right about a well-built M20 in an E30
e30m3s54turbo: I save my money for tuner parts. -
Not unless I flat bed it there [emoji16]
Looks like engine build is going to be toward end of year. Spreading out expenses and such.
More plating action

I make it to Ashville a good bit. This car will definitely be there at some point. May 2018 seems like a good objective.Comment

does pukar sell the VIn tags as well? Ths was always stopping me from doing a repaint on my car.. I know you hear it everyday, but amazing build...Comment

Thanks. No Pukar doesnt sell the VIN tags. The company is called ECS VIN. They say they are the only factory authorized VIN reproduction company (presumably in the U.S., but not sure). The tags they made me are great. I had to turn a set of comments to them first to get them perfect though. PM me if you place an order and I can send you the powerpoint deck (not joking) that i sent them with corrections to their first try, so that they do it right for you the first time around. http://www.ecsvin.com/Originally posted by m3j0n View PostComment

Correct. You might be able to strip down the new versions and replate them. Counterproductive since the new coating is more resilient, but yellow is better for originality.Originally posted by bradnic View Post
At least we dont have to deal with any of those awful aluminum bolts on e30s. Those things are everywhere on my e90 and they snap easier than a safe space snowflake college studentComment

OMG you are DIY Hero.... I just got a very ricer E30 M3 and i am trying to put everything back to normal .....Comment

Welcome! I'm gonna need to see pics of said ricer M3. Sounds like you may need an emergency consult. :up: Going to start a thread?Originally posted by Mason Gui View PostComment

At the detailer for engine bay coating. I guess it's in good company.
Also more shiny
I want to replicate this sticker. Too bad I peeled off the one on the other side years ago. Anyone have one still on their car?
Painting these windows is going to be tough. Looks like they're glued or stuck together with adhesive tape. Leaning toward taping off the glass and painting the trim in place
As you can see, the old trim is faded compared to the repainted pieces

The M3 is probably worth the cost of the service on the F40 alone!Comment
