    Yeah I'm trying to decide which direction to go. Sealer, tiny amount of filler, or nothing. I shipped those parts out BTW.

        That's my rescue pit/mix with clothes on...lol. She is probably 10-15 lbs heavier now.

          What color did you repaint the wheels? I really actually like the black on your car.

            I haven't done them yet, so still black lmao. I recently installed a kaliboy stud kit, some Treehouse lollipops, got some FRESH oem black carpet mats for free from work, got some amber fogs, replaced the burnt out tag light bulbs with LEDs....I think that's about it other than drive it. I ended up not using the 5mm spacers up front after all. They looked great but not being hubcentric made it a pain in the ass to not get a vibration. Need to get some fancy colored nuts to put on the studs now.

              If you want to get them wheels powder coated. Hit my up. My buddy does some of the best work I've seen. I can get you in contact with him. He can also powder coat the plastic 24v intake manifolds which also looks really good.
              If I was you I wouldn't put any seam sealer back on. It looks really clean with out it.

                I probably won't, I just need to get the old seam sealer off underneath where the washer resevoir was and see how bad the rust is. If it's bad enough I have to grind/reweld I will put something over it. If it's just surface and can be treated with POR-15 I will leave as is. I can't wait!

                  Started pulling stuff apart tonight. Just need to pull the trans and drain the coolant then pull the engine. Then I get to start on cleaning up the bay. I took some pics but I don't feel like uploading them right now trolololol.

                            Thanks. Nice 14" wheels.

                            No updates tonight. Had to work late tonight replacing roof seals on an E93 retractable hard top. UUUUUGGGGHHHHHH. My hands and finger tips are so sore. I'll see if I can get some pics up. Plan on starting the bay this weekend. Engine should be out tomorrow night.

                              Ok, I need some opinions. I'm going with either red painted bay or gloss black with red splatter all over. I'm having trouble coming up with a block/valve cover color. I'm eyeing up RustOleum High Heat "Aged Copper". I think it would look clean without being over the top. I'm going to run OBD2 exhaust manifolds for now, I already have a set welded up to use, painted black. Probably have a blacked out M power cover. I'm running this stuff through my head and it sounds decent. COuld be the alcohol.

                                Small update.

                                From this:


                                To this:


                                Hopefully start getting ready to put the S50 in this week/weekend. Need to get a 944 booster to modify, waiting on a radiator *cough* MIKE *cough* and need to order some random gaskets and little odds and ends. Ended up doing wrinkle black on a valve cover and really liked it, so I did intake elbow, oil filter cap, and tstat housing also. Should look pretty clean.
