Nope. Washer tank has been last on my list. Recently have been working on body work to get the car painted.

[Spaz]

Did you get that washer tank mounted? I'd like to see a pic of it :D

It was actually Brillantrot. But the main reason of painting is because there are 4 red ones alone in my town. Its not a very big town. My father in law is friends with half the police force and they come to the shop all the time.
One came up to me one day when he was at the shop and it went a little like this.

Him. So I heard from one of the guys that you was out hot rodding around town the other night.
Me. Oh yeah, where was this at and what time?
Him. It was on the west end of town, about 9pm.
Me. oh, damn.
Him. Yeah he tried to catch up to you but you was gone before he could turn the corner to see where you went. Said your car is very loud. Thats the only reason he noticed you.
Me. Well you know I work second shift right and I work 10 hour days. So I leave Town aroun 1pm and I dont get back into town till 1:30am.
Him. Oh. So it wasnt you?
Me. Well not unless someone drove 40 minutes away to get my car and come back to town and drive around.
Him. So your saying there are more than just one red e30 in town that looks like yours and its loud?
Me. Sure is. I know who he is too.
Him. oh, ok well be safe and no fuckin around and tell your friend the same.
Me. ok thanks, I will let him know...

So yeah. I dont need any shit from any cops. Next time I loose my license its for over a year and maybe jail time. So I try to keep to myself.
I know who the person was, he is actually a member here.
So a way to fix it was to paint the car or sell it. Painting the car won.

I FUCKIN LOVE it!!!!!

Im not sure. I just swapped the pass side fender over the weekend. Depending on the condition of the other one once I sand it to bare metal will depend on when it gets painted since all I have to do is block the car out, skim coat it with a light body filler and then block it again, Spray on a coat or two of filler primer and block more.
Yeah sounds like a bitch but it shouldnt be to bad.
I need to ask a friend to use his car while I do it since I will be pulling the interior out and all of the windows..

sounds like you are doing it right

[Butler]

that engine bay is looking solid, when you do you expect to have the car painted? Yes I am impatient

[Hobbes]

Wow, white? I bet you can do like 40mph over the speed limit now!!!

I sold the coupe because I wanted a 4-door... I could really care less what color it was. But thanks anyway.

I understand changing the car from red... I was on I-285 and got pulled for 81 in a 55, and there were plenty others doing the same or faster. But I guess my zinno coupe stood out... Sold it 2 weeks ago and now have an alpine 91 318i coupe. It blends in better :)

[White325is]

Is that your coolant res attached to the side of the radiator? Where'd you get that?

Its a 318is rad from an m42 e30

[ColdAccord]

Do it up, If your not running A/C you can get the IX washer tank and make brackets for it to fit under the pass side fender and fill it up where the A/C dryer would go.
Thats what I plan on doing..

Pics? I would love to do that and get an m42 radiator and coolant tank
