^ Nice! Looks pretty clean. I love the early models. If I didn't have my car I'd have a 325ix... but if I didn't have THAT, it'd be an '86 325es. Or a super eta.
Winter is coming up fast here. We're supposed to have at least a week of really good weather and then after that who knows. So I'm pretty much wrapping up on car projects for the year. Gonna try to do the fog lights today and the rest this weekend
mud flaps: I bought the rally armor universal flaps! I'll make a trip to home depot and come up a kit to make them fit a car. I was looking for OEM but it would take too long for everything to get here
euro rear fogs: Not looking forward to pulling up the carpet to run wire for these.
I have new tie rods and sway bar links waiting to go in just before I take the car to the tire shop for an alignment and winter tire change over. All when I have a day off. Timing is key
My service lights say I have two whole bars before another oil change, but it's already been like 6k miles. I'm not sure how accurate the computer is and if it's calibrated for different oils etc. I run castrol high mileage 20w50 now but it looks like I'll be switching to mobil 1 10w40 for the winter because of its higher zddp content.
The convertible top seems to be holding up pretty good in the rain. I had a slight leak along the passenger door front window seal (wtf) and some in the back window, so I siliconed the back window up. I'm probably going to be carrying some hand towels in the car throughout the season. But it won't be too bad: once it starts snowing it'll stop raining :up:
