    An eta evolved

    Not much left at this point. Lots of new stuff to show in this pics though. Side moldings have been shadowlined and fully repainted, painted mirrors are installed, front bumper and valence are installed, freshly painted euro grilles, along with newly repainted headlight rings and kidneys painted metallic silver. I'm still testing the water on the kidneys, I'd like to get your opinions on how they look, I'm still deciding. Also, my stubby antenna is finished and installed, it's probably one of my favorite new mods.

    Rear bumper needs to be mounted, I need to get my muffler welded back on, and my wheels are going in next week to be stripped and powdercoated. I'll also be painting the b-pillar trims, inner ring of window trim, and the headlight washer jets, along with lots of other small bits to be messed with and installed. I still need to get new bulbs for the turn signals too, that's why the lenses aren't installed, and the front lip needs to be painted. Enjoy!

        That antenna was actually mounted on the last parts car I got, an '86 325es that had been sitting in a field for about 3 years.

            Time, patience, and money. The 3 key ingredients. :up:

            And yes, my driveway is as steep as it looks. Getting up into my garage once the Rieger is mounted is going to be... interesting.

              Plastic Bumper Early models FTW! Get that bumper mounted, it really doesn't take long. Did you get fogs or are you running fillers?

                        Damn that thing is clean. Those borbets turned out to
                        be a good choice.

                            Awesome Josh! Can't wait to see new pics. With all this waiting we're doing you'd better have a REALLY sick photoshoot planned.
