E46 steering wheel for stereo controls.
Entire new dashboard. Unmentionable stuff on that deal.
Navigation with side view cameras.
Some kind of newer motor, but likely a bone stock M52.
Fresh paint with a bit of custom stuff going on.
New subframe with adjustability, custom sway mounts.
Door panels to match my seats, get the rear done too.
Fuck all of this, it depresses me.
All this shit I cannot do from lack of facilities!

^^^^^^^^^^^^
thats what I really want to do but my wallet dose not like S38 parts and I would need to rebuild it 1st if I am going to put in to my car
Stuff that really needs to get done
Fix the blister on the hood in the fresh paint
fix the 2 assembly chips from when I painted it in 07 that I did not get to this year (was only home 2 weeks this summer)
fix the way my rear bump strip fits
re polish my D.B's and wheels, may swap for a good set of euro bumpers an get rid of the polished boards IDK
IS or Volvo Lip
new exhaust regardless if I get to the swap or not
and maybe finally get all the stuff around a do my s52+ big boost build (doubtfull though)
Then it will be done after 4 years it will be doneLast edited by mrsleeve; 01-03-2009, 01:29 AM.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.
