    Crappy pics of mid phase one progress. I will try and get better pics tomorrow and definitely better pics when phase one is complete and I get a chance to wash the Texas-Boston road trip off the car. Today was the first time I drove the car since I dropped it off at VSR right after my post purchase road trip. Drove like a dream!


    Done:

    Full fluid flush
    other minor maintenance items
    Valve adjustment
    Black bumper tape (blue when I bought it)
    H&R Race
    Bilstein Sports
    Turner aluminum RSM's
    Swap out BMP strut brace for Sparco color matched Alpine
    UUC Evo 3 SSK with DSSR
    UUS stainless brake lines
    BBS RS0061 16x8 et20 front
    BBS RS021 16x9 et24 rear
    Toyo Proxes R1R 225/45/16 all around


    To be done week after next:

    Drop hats
    5mm spacers
    Euro grills
    Remove ugly BavAuto headlight protectors and replace with clear Laminex
    some other stuff maybe

    My wife and I had a great time meeting you also. In fact, my wife said that the people she met made it the only car show she has really enjoyed. "I like those two guys," she said referring to you and Mark as we were getting ready to leave.

    I did try again on the rarity part. Not buying it. Although it is true that in most places around here you will not see two. I just happen to take her to a few places that have many. Oh well.

    It was great to meet you and your wife at Cars & Coffee. Just tell the wife that YES the cars are as rare as you said. Unless you are at C&C or over at Pitman Garage in Dallas (Greg's) or the tracks you will very rarely see two in one place here in the Dallas area. I'll be one of the very few at C & C now.

    Thanks man!

    I would love to have a little white euro coupe like the one you used to have. I really liked your car!

    Cardinal interior would have made that car for me. I even used to have the same RZ's on my vert.

    Edit: Left Dallas at noon and spent the night in Nashville. Didn't realize you were from there. Nice city!

    OP: You sir, fuck you. In the butt. :(

    Your car collection is perfection. Love your vert. Should have sold my little white euro coupe to you, then you'd have the total 3 series package.
    Congrats
