    Interested to hear what you did for the foam.

    I have to ask, do you plan to do a manual swap?
    No I have a very old school retired guy that usually does my interior stuff . So he did it from scratch/using whatever prices I showed him the seats and asked him about the foam he said don’t worry about it . Also said he added extra on the bolstered and lower cushion on the driver seat as it gets used the most He does classic cars that come with just the frame and the springs he told me .
    I do not plan on doing a manual swap . This will be a very stock oem build . As I’m 40 now so this will be my old man car . The other white car is manual s50 swapped so that’s the fun car

  • Blue sedan I didn’t learnt the 1st go around

    So as a teenager I had 3 e30s beat them up really bad . Went to the Honda scene for a while and off road Tacoma . Then I got back in a e46 in 2012 in 2019 I picked up an e30 1991 318i that I did everything to that I possibly could think of . So not bored with the 1991 I found this on eBay ended up winning it for a decent price
    1986 325e sedan auto under 200k miles but broken odometer
    3/4 bad window regulators no AC no catalytic registration on non op from 2020 . Was resprayed at some point . Cluster issues interior not horrible but not good . Drove it home 80 miles runs and drives well . Did plugs oil change and a new cat passed with flying colors . Don’t know where I will take it from here but will be registered this weekend . Here are some pics
