Good news first:

- Side skirts are in



Bad news:
- While installing rebuilt locks to match the cut to the VIN bmw key I broke the fricking glass. Screw driver slipped inside the door while I was removing the "c" clip holding the door lock cylinder and made a mess. Off tomorrow to find an early manual glass. FUN.



Got the bitch replaced...decided not to do the other side today. Still waiting for the ignition cylinder from the dealer to arrive...



Anybody want to buy some glass, will ship CHEAP lol

Black leather rear seat is in (thanks Adam for delivering it!!!). Now I need to swap the blue rear premium speaker covers for black lol.

Installed new rear euro bumper, w/o the black trim for now since it valance needs to be installed first and then the strip. I have to say new bumper / hardware is such a joy to install, everything fits nice and smooth :)

I went ahead and removed the stock e32/34 airbox, It just doesn't fit right. Ordered a universal k&n filter and will make a shield or something to keep the heat away from the exhaust manifolds.

Are you still looking for that rear black seat?
I'm parting my car and I got one for you.?

[straight6pwr]

LOL at your spelling both times.

[hi its me alec]

It was on ebay for only $200, for the three main sections. He actually had two sets, I missed the first one and got an email from him as a 2nd chance offer.

Going to look awesome! How did you have the chance to buy a new rear bumper?

[Holland]

Lol, I was just about to ask if you were selling it. I need one now.

[Jean]

No. Eric wants it with the lower lip/spoiler unless he found one already

[Holland]

Good work, are you leaving your euro valence under the Mtech?

[Jean]

I recently sold my used rear euro bumper as I had a chance to buy a brand new one. I've been driving w/o rear bumper for the last two weeks lol

The blue interior is also gone, I re-installed my Corbeau seats for now and I am trying to find a clean black rear seat locally...no luck so far.

Some of it is needed for the rear valance installation:

I agree, I need to sell my weaves and get some clean 15-16 wheels with some 225 all season tires!

[decay]

nice work getting past CARB. i vote for those 15x8 wheels and 225/50, all the time. :D

[Jean]

Smog passed! I guess magnaflow cat isn't too bad after all :) On regular gas, nothing extra.



It's been raining here for the last two days almost non-stop, glad I bought new all season tires a few months back, but still way too easy to spin the tires.
