I had that happen to an OE BMW badge from the 2000's when they really started cheaping out on them. Thankfully, they are much better now.

Rear Motorsport still present...


Spent $15 on AlfaBB and added a plate frame from Monza Motors (Ferrari, Alfa, Fiat shop) that closed years ago. Feels like the right patina...





Thinking about painting the badge (restoring it??) But not sure what color Blue I need to get from Testors or something. Anyone know?

Soooooo I know I said the suspension was done, but I actually never replaced the rear shocks. I found one of my Mustang rear Koni's for a great deal initially, but the Ground Control top mounts and the second Koni took a little longer to acquire. I was hoping to find another smoking deal, but after staring at the other pieces in my garage, I finally just bought one from Summit and had the second Koni the next day. Install took all of 1 hour, including stopping for my silly pics. A Bluntech relic was used in this pic as a tribute to the similar pic from the Aluminum Monster when I previously had done the same mod.


My favorite part of this mod is that the rear droop is significantly reduced so the shock can actually use the full range on a lowered car.


Also, being February and just crossing the 167k mark with a functioning odometer seemed like a good time to do an oil change. Life as a Dad meant the oil change happened at night

...and yes, I staged that pic for you guys (and the hope that it would get Penzoils attention on IG lol)
