Very last you will see of my car

[Jordan]

For the rest of 2003. I reluctantly gave her a bath (40º out) and dried her off. Took a few pictures, and rolled it back into the car port where it received a car cover.

She is now napping for awhile.






Lets not hear anything about the 13" e21 steelie, its not even mine, its just temp until i get the warped wheel repaired.

AHAHAHAHA :up:

Slap an iS lip in place of the Rieger and the car is decent.

Jordan, I think I read in an earlier post that you will be filling the sidemarkers on the mouldings and then painting them. Do you plan on painting them black or color matching them ( :down:)?

Cant wait to see the next step in your project.

The springs are 1/2 OEM in front. Wood blocks with holes in the rear so they seat into the trailing arm/frame. Obviously I can't drive on them, and wouldn't try. There isn't anything to understand about it Stu, Only that the car doesn't stand like a 4x4 anymore, and its more pleasing to stare at day in, day out.

The iS lip is sooo boring, overrated, and stays on about as well as a whores panties. The Infinity is just so much better all around.

The bumper moldings are an issue, I will most likely pick up some used euro moldings off Greg, and put those in the front, while I cut up and shorten the rear moldings. As such I am almost forced to color match them to the car, which will look better anyways. It would look awfully silly with no side moldings, but black bumper moldings.

I thought you finished that rear valence deal a while back? Either way the car is super slick, cant wait to see a finished product.

[OOMPH!]

Jordan, what color are you going to get it painted?

[Jordan]

No, I never got around to finishing the rear valance. As you can see only 1 side panel is taped on the car, the other one is in the trunk. A local stray cat that is nasty looking (deseased, hair falling out, green/black teeth etc) ikes to spray on all the vehicles in the neighborhood, mostly just the wheels/tires. He has on several occations sprayed on my car. One particular time he sprayed on the drivers side rear skirt panel, and his urine etched/dissolved the foam where it sprayed. Needless to say he ruined that side panel, and I haven't felt like making another one to match it.

The same color it already is. Lachssilber. I don't know how many times I have answered this question.

Damn, I cant wait to see the finished product. When are these going into production again? Oh yeah, this is not one of the new series, but it looks 1000% better!!! 8)

You have probably already thought of this and it probably wouldnt be in your budget but it would be nice to pic up some m-tech bumper covers and modify them to fit your application. Then you would have the "recessed" look all the way around.

That top pic looks incredible. Awesome effort Jordan.
