A nice picture my friend took:

It's alive! At 10:30 this morning the red beast roared to life (like really roared, it just has open headers on it) and drove out of the garage under it's own power. It still needs a lot of work but the first hard part is done! I'll post pics and perhaps a quick video later this evening.

going to run it without the engine cover on the valve cover? it looks very high-tech as it is and has good contrast between the red cover and the COPs (i like it!)

[Fidhle007]

I would run it like that but then how will people know it's an M? :-)

I'm all about keeping it clean under the hood so it will get all the covers once everything is together.

Put the M badges on the outside?

Excellent Brendan. Alex said you would be around this week. I'll give the shop a call soon.

So it's been awhile since I've had any time to work on anything relating to my OWN car but I did get this bolted up today... It's just a temp assembly with a plastic adapter to test my measurements. I still think it looks sexy though...





Oh yeah, I got new coilovers too...
