    Introduction/Progress Thread! 318is content

    Well ive put this off long enough primarily because I had never used a site to host my images.

    Got the car a little over a year ago slightly less than stock(see first pic lol). After searching craigslist super hard for about a month with all dead ends I hopped on AutoTrader. Funny enough the car was two miles from my house. Anyway a little on the car...

    Two owner
    Zero Rust
    Completly stock besides a Maco respray and terrible side mouldings
    Odometer stopped at about 140k, est 250k when I picked it up.
    Almost every record since new including window sticker

    Things I've done...
    swapped dash (got a crack already)
    Swapped out vinyl sports seats for cloth due to previous owner being over weight and having comfort driver seat
    swapped carpet
    billy sports with GE Coilover conversion kit
    Turner break kit
    cleaned engine bay and painted valve cover and intake
    16" style 5 wheels (stripped the lips half ass/need to finish)
    42 Draft design 4 to 5 Lug adapters... really quality stuff here
    roof rack with custom wood deck
    and yes... taurus side skirts (cause I think they look good)
    "is" lip
    Bosch Smileys
    Euro analog clock
    dash mat
    black door pulls and kick panels
    and some other odds and ends

    Still need to swap my z3 rack and 4.10 med lsd and install my supersprint muffler from a v8 7 I got for free from a buddy.

    That will do for now and I'll upload more pictures and update when I get some more time! Hope the pictures work!

    Enjoy!

              That's a nice looking start. The paint doesn't look too bad for being a respray but, the pictures are a little far back.

                    Its beautiful, are the style 5's redrilled or you running adapters?

                        Thanks guys! The rack is an older discontinued rain gutter mount rack and I'm running adapters on the wheels. Believe it on not the respray is one of macos $300 jobs and is seven years old. And while I agree it does look pretty good in pics there are tons of flaws. I can however make it look decent after a good buff but it will oxidize within a few days lol
