    Zane's is a 4x4. Hell he could probably run 33s and not rub.

      I put the blinkers in the bumper to make sure it all lined up. Also set the trim to see how that's going to work. You can see all the tasty salt that colors my car grey. It's always nice to see... [emoji19]

        I noticed my throttle slightly binding or getting caught or something and so I looked into to see if I was maybe missing something. Turns out there is a little dowel that I was indeed missing. So I ordered that bitch of fleaBay and all seems smooth.

        I still don't know how that piece went missing... [emoji848]

          Some more little stuff.

          I got this 5 series bumper gasket. Thank you @downforce for showing this. It's a nice little mod that makes the car feel more complete.

          I also hooked up these "city lights" in my front blinkers. Basically it's a reposition of the side lights behind the reflectors.

          I still need to get a connector for the actual blinkers though, so still driving around without those... [emoji53]

          Until then, I'm waiting for some trim and then I'll paint it in the spring.

          Pardon the salty creature from the depths of the dead sea that is my car. It's been a harsh winter season here in UT.

            You can replace those crusty fog light lenses with acrylic ones off of ebay to the tune of ~$15

              I'll probably just block them off instead honestly. I'm still trying to decide. These are replaced lenses on there currently, they look extra crusty because of the extra crusty salt packed on them. They aren't in bad shape.

                      Recently I was reading through a thread and saw that BMW has a procedure to put on a wheel that involved using a silicone grinding wheel to clean that mating surface. My wheels have been vibrating and when I read this it made sense. I decided to take a look. Mine were pretty terrible! It solved my issue, until I knocked off a balancing weight and now I have a slight vibration, but I can tell the old issue has been resolved. See the pictures of terror!

                          I actually used this grinding wheel. I think it's made from a really strong silicone or something.

                            I decided to put some vinyl on my wagon's grill to get rid of the chrome (I'm not a big fan). I didn't want to do black though, so I went with a metallic silver vinyl.

                            What do you think?
