    Spring cleaning

    Well, after all these years a few things needed attention..well mostly my OCD kicking in...real issue was a leaky valve seal, so whole head is getting re-built with better beefier components. As she sat today, sorry for the cell picks.




    so far I have..
    cleaned engine bay and under carriage and sprayed 3m rubberized under coat
    replaced the top(thanks to a R3V member for the top)Thanks Pwagon717 for the hand
    added the is lip(thanks Blunt)
    light delay(thanks George Graves)


    still to do..
    new leather interior(Kevin Chin..calling Kevin Chin)
    body and paint to include third brake light delete(Vlad I'm almost there)
    install rebuilt head (288 cam) using apr bolts once I find them
    install new water pump,thermostat,belts,tensioner,cap+rotor+wires and hoses
    shit load of new gaskets and seals
    install new brembo rotors and hawk pads
    still have to purchase poly subframe and diff bushings
    HID's, french the fogs
    drop off several engine bay things at powder coat
    and finish the wheels still in powder coat..have to still polish the barrels and bang out the stock bolts and install the gold ones...
    so they can go from this


    to something like this(hope the pic owner doesn't mind

              I have done my homework to get the right ride height, tire size, and spacing not to mention a pending re-spray and interior to complement them

              still working on this one, not sure to use BMW cap that came on these or get red and gold BBS logo and grind them to size.

                Darker color cabrios work much better with bigger wheels. This should look pretty good.

                  No he made a huge mistake by selling them to a friend. It is what happens when you get old, you get old timers. Just like the IS lip, he was going to give it to me, but no no...he decides to keep it. What is deal for today, it is suppose to rain again
