I love that carpet material. I'd love to have a set of floor-mats made up in that.

Wow. This car is amazing. I didn't realize this was one of your other projects until this morning. Great work and attention to detail!

Nice carpet and mats. Leather trimmed? Very classy.

You've seen it at its worst, too.
I remember Monterey prep on your rear panels. We finally gave up and you got a free mat out of it. In essence, our friendship is paying you dividends now.

Pick your battles, Ara. I'll enable you, but I also think you have your heart set on something else.

Very nice interior and sweet looking car. I wonder if that kind of interior would do an e30 justice.

Thank you for the compliments.

As for an e30, they are still not "classic" enough to warrant a different carpet. The single piece carpet kits in e30s are fairly easy to find and even easier to swap out. I'd just stay original.

Even 2002s got one-piece carpets, but not til 74-76 or so. The 73 and earlier cars have always been my favorite. These cars lie in a time-frame where BMW was making NICE parts for their cars, before converting to plastic for everything.

It turned out awesome. I love this car.

[LateFan]

picked up a set of ultra rare Campagnolo Ragno wheels in 13x6.

When are these going on? Everything is looking really swell. A dandy car.

Jealous of people finding these amazing 02's in California like its no big deal :sad:

Sold these wheels a few months ago. They didn't fit over my brake kit, and wasn't willing to go back to stock. Mostly because I was lazy.

Thank you!

Super old plate frame. This is so ridiculously cool. If you don't know what KMA 367 means, do a search:




And the engine bay, 95% finished:





Car runs incredibly well. Burn outs are an hourly occurence now.
