Bro, fuck those judges, whoever they are.

i feel the same way, there was a mint condition e46m with a VR blower, real wheels, low but drive-able, destroyed in the judging like me.

i thought you got there too late for judging?...

Also put these in finally. I've had them since before the car went to paint and now im just getting to installing them. much lazy but tired of people pointing them out as missing.

Got any tips when you put these in. I tried many times and gave up after nearly scratching my paint a half dozen times.

btw car looks good as always

i used a my hands and silicon spray and a flat head screw driver to finish. my rubber is new so it wasnt hard to get them in. on an old car, it could be hard.

and a round-shank screwdriver and some soapy water is all you need.

ya the e30 lock strip does not fit in the normal size threader. but i think he was talking about the corner metal pieces. those u just use a screwdriver and spray

yep and I ended up bending them instead of getting them in. I just dont get it....maybe i need to warm the rubber up a little?

i pulled up the ends of the plastic locking strip. loaded them into the corner piece then shoved it down it using silicon spray and a flat head. it took maybe 3 minutes for both sides. maybe you have the wrong corners or locking strip is too long.


I also did stuff. swapped from the 6 button to 13 button OBC.
