e34 DD build, everyone's doing it...

[Jb325is]

started fixing my door today, this is the only panel on the car that needs replacing. It had a few decent sized dents and a few door dings, but it was good practice as I've got a lot of door dings on the car that'll need taking care of.







The last is before the guide coat and hour of blocking. After I got done with that I thought I was looking pretty good until one of the bodymen that is helping me came by and showed me a couple low spots that I'll have to go back over. Re-prime and more blocking tomorrow... awesome

Nice work.

[JJe30]

Very nice

Did you spray the block black yourself? Was considering doing that myself but the surface looks to be rusty.

[Jb325is]

Yeah I did, mine had a little surface rust but I just cleaned it with a wire brush

You make me miss my E34. Dang you ..

Nice job man. I'll definitely be following this.

[Jb325is]

Wow, nice e34! I really wanted to run 4 9.5" M-pars on this car but these ACS were such a good deal, couldn't say no.

[Vtec?lol]

love it!

[Dj Buttchug]

Hootttt dammmmmm!

[blksuperman2]

Love what you're doing here. I hope to get my E34 I got from Germany running again. I really miss that car.

Nice job so far, great color! Your coilover setup looks like what I had started, but still have not finished for my 540. I have a thread over on Bfc about them, but I have not updated it in a while, since this E30 project kind of took over. You even got your stuff from A1! I get a lot of stuff from them, they're fairly local to me. I actually got all my cage tubing from them for my E30 project and I have a couple of sets of those sleeves and adjuster nuts from them too, both on the E30 and the setup for the E34. Maybe I'll get around to finishing them up this summer, dunno. Keep up the good work, I'm watching this one...

Great work so far.

What kind of MPG are you seeing with your e34 daily?

Yeah, I went with A-1 because of that thread on Bf.c.. Although I don't really like their upper perches the rest of their stuff is pretty good quality for the money. I'm pretty happy with the coilovers to this point, but I'm not so sure about the rear with the Bilsteins.

As for MPG, not really sure, I don't pay attention to MPG's to be honest. I just go where I need to go and buy gas when I need to. I would guess it's around 17-18 though
