    Ya ya haha had low pros but i didn't like the fender gap so I've been dealing with these. I'm on the hunt for some 17x8 style 5's and I'm going to try to stuff those under there.

    Good job! Must be satisfying to have some of that rust gone!

    I'm doing a flare delete on my iX as well. Did you end up getting 'i' trim for the fender and quarter?

    Sorry about the delayed reply but no I still have the I trim. There is a bit if a gap on the rears but it's just one of those things still on the list im of things to change, it really isn't that noticeable but it's enough to bug me haha.

    ^ ya me too haha, I planned on having all the parts by now but i ended up selling my beater dd subbie and spend all the play money on a e46 330xi. Ive still been working on it and collecting parts slowly though. I've been looking into what clutch to use lately, I'm debating the tcd clutch or clutchmaters from vac Motorsports.

    Thanks it's been coming along great, been driving it a lot lately after 2 years with out it haha. I think a reasonable 300 whp would be fun, that's what I'm shooting for at least.

    Took some pictures the other week, this one turned out pretty nice. I'm still trying to get a hang of photoshop but I'm getting better haha. Ground controls are on and dam near everything bushing, bearing, or rubber part was replaced when I did it. But now the car seams to understeer kinda bad or at least worse then before, but I haven't got it aligned yet so hopefully that will help. Click image for larger version
