Got some good stuff in the mail today! Thank you Ireland Engineering.

the PNW is shit.

We need to bundle up all the commiefornians and idaho transplants and flush them down to slc

lol, dude that is already happening. we are way more affected by that than you guys already. We can all move to Montana.

we have cobblestones up here in the PNW. they are shit. And the paved roads are shit everything is shit

I'd like to clarify this is specifically the PNW. LoL

Have you ever driven on cobblestones ?
I mean, we have some decent roads but most of them have plenty of potholes.

thankfully the closest i've gotten to that are dirt roads. I actually can't imagine any cobblestone roads in the US, unless we are talking about the east coast. west coast is smooth sailing (except in CA)

Do you have bad roads then? We have stupid large highways with 6 lanes on each side here. City roads are questionable sometimes, but the highway is always pretty smooth.

Here are some better pictures of the seats.

Oh you are right, I mistook them for E36 vader seats :)

They actually aren't e36 seats. They are from a Z3M. Ride should be great.

Not the biggest fan of the E36 seats but to each their own of course. Do you still have to original red seats that car with the car? How harsh will it drive with those new mounts? When I switched to the M3 offset Lemforder bushings on my ix, the difference was quite noticable, can't imagine how it would be with those! Or our roads here are just shit. lol

The black with the red looks great. You could even look at trying some black armrests/ door pockets for some more contrast. Excited to see updates

[jeenyus]

Did some plastic bonding on my bumper. I broke a tab at some point and its bugged me ever since. I also got some more goodies. Some very nice 'treehouse' bushings from garagistic. I will have to clean up the end if the control arm to get these to fit well. I'm actually surprised at the corrosion they've accumulated in such a tight area.

[jeenyus]

The exhaust isn't going to happen. I guess now I'll wait for IE to have long tubes headers again and purchase those when they are ready, which means more down time... :( Also means more time to continue to throw parts at the car... :( In other news, the car looks so good with two seats in it!
