I hope that you are having a blast in Phillipines bro.
And thanks for inviting me to the e30MW meet, It was a blast.
+ I won the raffle draw twice, whahaha.
I just rolled the quarter panels on mine. buggered up the paint a bit, even though i used the heat gun.
The fenders were too thin to roll so i hammered them down with a mallet.
I will let you check them out when you get back from the trip, and tell me what you think.

My buddy hooked me up with a sparco strut bar.


stock

passenger side

driver side


ran into a small problem
i snapped the plastic piece for the cruise control line and the rubber piece on the throttle linkage.
I replace the rubber piece, but need to figure how to fit the bar with the linkage in a good spot

I rented out a east wood fender roller and rolled my lips flat.
I wanted to make a little extra room.
I wanted it to look like nothing had been done.

old rear view mirror


kartek hooked me up with a free maplight rear view mirror


remove the lower dash panel
remove a part of the door seal
remove the hood hinge
remove the speaker cover
remove the speaker

look for a black connector taped up in a harness
excuse the wire taps they where there from a previous alarm i took it out but didn't take the time to remove each tap.


i plugged the harness in the speaker area, and fed the wire up top with a coat hanger,

plug it in to the mirror and tested the bulbs

all done

radar check
maplight check
