          Oh btw to Franz- 92' 318iC's aren't prewired for fog lights.
          I call BS on that one, my wires were WELL hidden but there, I bet I could find them.

          Well I guess I could use some wheels, 14" basketweaves are light though, and I got 2 perfect sets.

              well ive been putting this off but, what the hell, here we go.

              this is everything it needs:

              repainted front spoiler
              front spoiler brackets
              1 fog light
              driver side, inside, window seal... the rubber part
              new dash, mines cracked to hell
              odometer gears
              diff bushing (soon to be fixed)
              brake pads
              something done with the suspension to stop the shaking at *very* high speeds and moderate braking
              tires

              ... i know theres more, there has got to be

              ill add on to this later.

                  Ditto. Does any one know a good way to clean them? I was thinking about taking the seats out and renting a steam vac from a grocery store and really going at them. Since mine are tan you can really notice it too. I'm assuming that it'll help with the 'old car' smell too (probably has something to do with the coffee and coke spilled on the passenger side carpet... thanks sis :evil: )

                      Its been a while since ive been on here, Ive been workin on liftin my jeep, (really saving the money to do so). My cars arent doin so well.

                      e30:
                      Clutch slave cylinder
                      T-belt
                      Rear bumper brackets

                      One of my friends wrecked the e28, by running it over a huge rock, it needs:
                      Transmission mount
                      possibly transmission
                      full euro exhaust needs to be replaced
                      Rear floor has hole
                      but i also have euro bumpers, staggered T-stars, Mtech1 rear spoiler and hopefully a BBS or Hartge fromt spoiler waiting to go on when everything is fixed
                      - '88 m54 coupe

                        So you're telling me Billy Revis of Motorsport Connections doesn't know what he was talking about? There was no plug for the switch where it should be so I went there and asked.

                          It ain't right behind the panel, it's WAY WAY down in the footwell. I say anyone who has a get together called Turkey Tech and there's no tech at all, just turkey has issues.

                            I need some adjustable trailing arm bushings as well as the motivation to install them as well. I also need to just bite the bullet and get a professional toe alignment. My right rear wheel well is rusting pretty badly. I also need to install some new rear shock mounts.

                                just do the alignment yourself, too easy
