I can't believe these little bastards are $18 each with my discount. I just blew $100 on misc clips and fasteners for the engine bay.

What's happening? Plans?

Also, what happened to the vinyl?

350k mile engine that had bad rod bearings ever since I bought it 6 years ago. But I have not taken it apart to see what caused it yet. I was just cruising at the time.

[jaywood]

I sent you a PM :p

[Zacm829]

Damn! Thinking management issue or simply wear failure?

[einstein57]

Happy Friday the 13th.

Well i have been avoiding finalizing the setup for my megasquirt because i've been meaning to go wasted spark. But my glen board has been dangling around for the last year and it broke off one of the soldered connections this week so i figured i needed to do something about it before i got stranded somewhere. Here is what i came up with. Just clips in to place.

Time to start sprucing up the interior. I've been holding on to pristine m3 interior parts for the last year or two and i need to start clearing out my office space. But i don't want awesome seats and a cracked dash so its time to do something about it. Well first off i have an almost crack free dash but almost ain't gonnah cut it. So i've decided to wrap it. I was considering leather for the longest but decided against it since my car is always outside in the sun and i'm not trying to build a show car. Just trying to create a nice environment to relax in. So i took a silver permanent marker and started drawing where and how i want the separations.



The centerconsole will be identical to the the mtech 2 leather interiors. I took some pics of kartoyz interior for reference.



Here is a teaser pic of a leather one that was done for a soon to be well known right hand drive, supercharged s54, mtech sedan.




I looked at a couple options and settled on this pattern. Its Mercedes factory material.




They have one that is almost identical to the e30 factory grain for those who don't want to do their center console, glove box, a pillars, etc.
