    Thanks, I do not tire of looking at this car.

That reminds me, I need to go through the fuel system on my e30 and take care of all the old rubber. Planning on swapping out the factory wheels anytime soon?
    Snowless, but it's looking like my FD will be down for the rest of January while I wait on a few parts. As for wheels, unless I win the lotto and can fit a set of MS02s in my budget, it's not getting different wheels any time soon. It's a good thing I actually like the stock wheels. I'm preaching the value of replacing old fuel hoses in these old fuel injected cars because too many cars burn down. If your 30 year old car has any original fuel hoses on it, you should replace them with OE or equivalent. I even bought Oetiker clamps and an Oetiker brand crimper for this job so I can secure the new fuel hoses that run across the top of the engine with something "permanent" and don't have to worry about lines that are basically impossible to inspect without removing the upper intake manifold or using a borescope.
