        I hope to get the fender replaced and repainted so I can have a two-tone car, just like Bobby.:p

          First you have to paint it DS. No question.

          Then buy floormats... expensive ones.
          The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

            DS sucks - Sterling is so much nicer . . . ;)

            And as for floor mats - there is a set I might get to match the steering wheel, shift knob, deadpedal and wheels. But that is so far down my list of priorities right now . . .

            Going to the DIY car wash today to get some of the nastier crud off of it.

              Washed it - its still a piece of shit!!!!!

              Seriously though, it looks a little better. The wheels are quite discolored. I'll probably rattle can them anyway. Not sure if I'll go graphite, black or purple.

                  Nah - I am thinking Satin black. I am not masking off the lips on some cheap ass caps - too much trouble.

                    Black would look great - look at TJ's. I like it.

                    Pics of washed car or ban ;)

                    Stefan, there was some fun, but between getting shit done, being overtired, and taking pictures, the fun was not had by myself or Dave that I can recall ;)

                    It was a great time, and I was glad to meet everyone.

                      Other than the quick ride Scott took in the vert, I seem to remember him mostly running around like a chicken with its head cutoff !!!

                      i got there and he and Don were working feverishly to get the bumper on my beauty. Then they were doing all sorts of other things. All on a handful of hours of sleep.

                      I was unfortunately in a hurry because of things I needed to do back at the homestead and a social engagement we had that night.

                              Still no cleaned up pics - probably will have to wait until I get back from Florida next week.

                              Here's my "To Do" list for the car for now:

                              Install some of what I have in the garage:

                              1. Sparco Front Brace
                              2. MHW Tails and Euro Filler
                              3. Alpina Wheels
                              4. ATE Powerslot Rotors and Stock Rotors in the Rear
                              5. HP+ Brake pads
                              6. Completely flush the brake lines and Fill with Valvoline Synpower
                              7. K&N Panel Filter in the Airbox
                              8. Custom Alpina colored e-brake and shift boots from Rob Schiering
                              9. Replace the Door sills that Scott did not get a chance to put back on (he was so busy with the damn starter!!!!)
                              10. Euro Non-SRS Check Control

                              Then I have to buy the following:
                              11. Shocks
                              12. Springs
                              13. Sway Bar links
                              14. Front sway (have it lined up, just have to pick it up)
                              15. RSMs

                              Once I have 11-15, I'll install those, plus the following which I have in the garage:

                              16. CABs
                              17. New Lemforder CAs
                              18. new Tie Rods
                              19. "New' rear subframe with IE Bushings in it
                              20. IE Trailng Arm Bushings

                              Also have to get

                              21. Spoiler clips (the lip is not on there now as the clips are missing broken)
                              22. Fog lenses or blanks

                              Also need to clean up a couple of minor spots of rust on the paintand clean the god forsaken cosmoline out of the engine bay.
