holy shit that's clean. good find.

Appreciate it!

wow that's amazing dude! Good progress and the car is looking sweet!

Get yourself some new exhaust manifold gaskets and your engine bay will look clean as hell!

Thanks! Thought about getting new manifold gaskets but to be honest the risk of breaking off one of the bolts isn't justified for changing the gasket. Maybe if I get headers in the future...

wow impressive job on the exterior detail.

Appreciate it! Still have to repaint the rear bumper and get a new front valance but it have come along well!

I suck at updating posts like this since my last update was back in September!

It has been a VERY busy past few months and I have a lot to update one.

Few things I've done on the car since my last update:

- Euro Grills
- Installed a new radio
- Mtech 1 steering wheel
- New brakes ALL AROUND
- New 14" weaves
- New Lemf Control Arms
- New M3 Offset CAB's
- "Rebuilt" E36 rack from rackdoctor.net (AWESOME)
- New Lemf. tie rods
- Bilstein Sports (with new hats and hardware)
- H&R Sports
- New front wheel bearings

Next on my list:
- Rear Suspension: RTAB's and subframe bushings (already purchased), possibly with DragonMotorsports camber/toe kit
- 3.73 LSD with new bushing
- HID kit for ellips
- Red tint the taillights
- Paint the front and rear covers I pulled to match the Zinno (already have)
- Strip front valance of "texture" (or replace if I can't repair dings)
- Cover with a rear apron OR replace rear clip (CHEAP plug. Check out my PRE-'88 Kamei rear skirt FS http://r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=160983)
- Install and paint Taurus side skirts (already have)
- Install and paint rear IS spoiler (kind of already have...)
- Refinish and paint front Volvo lip
- Remove dings and dents
- Intake, exhaust, tune?
- Continue hope she doesn't blow up unexpectedly

Now for the pics...

Time to get another coat of GlossHaus on there - I'd recommend doing the whole car with the sealant, letting it get all nice and bond-y and then topping it with the Carnauba. Since it came from such a crusty state, you'll really want to stay on top of the wax for a while. I doubt you'll have to polish any this time, but we'll have a look at it.

Euro grills look nice, too - did you repaint them before you put them on?
