I might have missed this but if you have not already done so, it would be really cool if you could do a build thread of how to build the door panels!

[Spyke]

It's literally get a sheet of aluminum or ABS, make a pattern, trace the pattern onto the aluminum or ABS, cut out with a handheld jigsaw, file and sand edges as needed.

Nothing complicated to it, just a good chunk of time.

[Brian.SHms]

Thanks man! Im hoping to use much of what you did with your car on mine!

[Spyke]

Going ahead with the graphics change on the door panels. The M-tech print looks REALLY good.

The car is getting a brand new Suspension Techniques front sway bar as well with all new hardware, bushings, and links too.

Question. Where do you get those vinyls printed? I'm looking to print an artwork on a hood-size piece of vinyl

[Spyke]

I do it all at my sign shop, but I'm leaving that as well to help my parents.

Look up a FastSigns near you, they can help out. Ideally, ask if they can print it on 3M IJ180cV3 or 3M IJ35C vinyl and add laminate

Put the fronts on

Also installed new rear deck speakers. In case any one wants something cheap but nice... these are 5.25" 8ohm speakers just like stock. Except poly cones instead of paper. They are J&M speakers from Harley fairings, so they should deal with the sun baking them way better.

Looks like my good buddy Mickey should be taking the e30 from me before the final move.

Car was sold right before my move to a good buddy (Mickey), and will be receiving a M52 engine swap. Hopefully he will take over this thread when he gets going.

Don't mind me, just looking back in time with heavy regrets. Amazed this isn't locked yet.

Hopefully OP buys the car back after years and picks up where he left off
