project Euro Henna- 84 325E with a twist, my first day with it

[vlad]

long story short, the truck comes by yesterday (October 20th) around 1 PM and this car is on it



I roll it out and this is what she looks like







so without any wait, I get to work !

interior comes out



rear parcel shelf before



after



the cluster gets some work (chrome rings, red painted needles, Alpina Rev limiter sticker)





put in the new interior and Alpina Steering wheel, ZHP knob, new shift boot





new French Euro Lights go in, New Euro Grills



my buddy came down to help out



we tried the Borbets on





that was the end of my first date with her...

next morning (second date) stagegred set of ESMs are on





I get out my M-Tech1 side skirts and rear spoiler and we start working on it







new pedals from guttenparts



bunch of other missing clips, bulbs, interior trim goes in... not bad for one day with her?

and then she gets a much deserved bubble wash




so in one day she goes from this



to this



from this



to this



and that's the end, enough of 1 full day of work



PS I'll post more details about the car tomorrow, but it's not a simple 325e ;)

You are a crazy motherfucker... that was a lot of work! Great job!

On another note, how hard was it to change out the cluster?

[cmybimmer]

[Garageaholic]

Wow, that looks great. Especially in the amount of time that it was completed.

Two questions though, where do you buy the alpina sticker and does it have any significance? And did you buy the headlights on eBay? Cause i saw some french headlights and was gonna buy them today but they were gone :(

[castros]

WOW that car looks awesome.

[RainierHooker]

Holy balls. You are making my Henna jealous...

[blefevre]

Wow! You work very, very fast! Looks great. I can't wait to see more of this car.

UGH euro early henna. so proper.

[DREWHALL]

AAAND it already looks better than my car. Although I'm broke and it was a beater for a year and a half before I got to do any work to it. Looks great vlad I want to know what's under the hood.

LOVE the henna, I now want to put the effort into finding real henna paint so I can repair my henna to it's former glory.

Do you know of a source?
