That M3 wire cover makes everything look soo neat. I might have to do it as well.

very worth while upgrade. the is a snag tho. the back of the M20 intake manifold rubs on the lower corner.
if you get the 318is air box cover it requires no cutting of studs.

dude the dust and spider issue at my dad's house is nuts. even in the garage a fat layer of dust builds up in just a few days.

The struggle is real. My silver car gets dumped on in storage. I feel your pain.

I see a speck of dust. You should be ashamed.

Nicely done, Eric.

This is how she sits. Unfortunately with me ordering the wrong fuel pump and then getting really sick they can has been touched and wont be touched for a month. so right now it's a great paper weight that is ready to run.
when i get back to her i still need to figure out why the moonroof wont slide smoothly, get the fuel pump in and then get to the DMV for moving permits so i can smog and get a windshield put in. now my goal is to have her on the road by Jan 1st.

Cleanest M20 bay I've seen. Better than new without the cosmoline!
Those m3 wire covers should have been standard.

pic of said trimming?

no sorry. but it's really easy to figure out when it's in front of you. the hard part is getting the wires to bend correctly.

coming along very nicely!

So I got sick this weekend, along with ordering the wrong fuel pump, there was a delay that will keep this from being finished in time for Archiefest3.
All hoses and belts are on.
I filled her with distilled water and checking for leaks.
The M3 wire coves arrived and I spent a few hours cutting and modifying to get them to fit. Then I slapped on the euro grills from Abrahams Motorsport. I also mounted the fog lights for real with the new clips and painted the black valence grill. And we also moved the wire-harness that I had mistakenly run under the front bumper supports to the correct location and straps. And my dad finished the AC.
The interior is getting closer and ill shot a pic when that is finished.
