    nice, alpina front end is looking good. Would like to know what it took to fit as well. I would like to get one, but again hearsay about the crappy fit is holding me back as well.

                    I said it before and will say it again, it's crap, not worth the work, by the time you will be done trying to make it fit it will cost more than the real thing which I am sure fits like a glove instead of this nightmare that I had to go thru to make it work...

                    thank you !

                    6/30 update (last day of June)
                    spent 2 days working on the interior, fabricating the brackets for the seats, doing various electrical work, painting the trim, etc..etc... also put the rear bumper and the rear spoiler back on, washed the trunk carpets, will finish up putting the trunk components together tomorrow. We've put all the exterior trim on, the mirrors, all the moldings, side skirts, etc..
                    It will be 99% finished tomorrow, so I'll post pics on Wed !
