              Was able to dig out the back bumper today over lunch and hang it after work. Also put the fuel flap door on(shaved flat). Looking forward to a 3 day weekend to maybe get quarter glass and windshield wipers/motor/blower motor reinstalled and strip the tint from the back window.

                Some stuff came in the mail today!



                The rest of my body stuff should be painted by next weekend. And I have a few more packages still coming in the mail.

                Wheels are being powder coated as we speak, should also have them next week some time. Hope to order tires on Monday. 3 years in the making, but I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel!

                    Just saw you're from SLC. That's where this thing came from! Stupid rust.

                        Wheels on, not sure why it looks like it sits so high, I swear it doesn't look that goofy in person :/
                        Things finished last week or so:

                        Wheels(obviously)
                        Window regulators/motors/glass
                        strip rear window tint
                        wiper blades
                        center console trim

                        Sure i'm missing some things but so much more left to do.

                          Finished putting most of the car together past few weeks. Drove it around 100 miles this weekend and I'm in love. Makes it easier to sell the z3 when the e30 puts a smile on my face!





                          Need to finish some little trim items but that's what winter is for. I'd like to take the car on a trip this weekend but still need to replace my rear subframe as its a bit bent from when I bought it. I will also be lowering the front of the car, not happy with the wheel gap there. I should have bought coil overs from the beginning

                              I honestly don't remember who I bought it from. I Just remember an email saying call this guy, so I did. And 15 minutes later bought his car.

                                Normally not a fan of Sparco's but those came out exceptionally well.

                                Wheel details? 16's rs061 and 211's? Time to order a new window breaker. Are you going to reskin your steering wheel?
