My euro 320i/B6 3.5 Alpina Tribute ( Now with turbo power)

No plans for carpet?

I want to run it this summer with out carpet and what not since I did so much metal work I wanna make sure she is water tight it would be hard to spot leaks with carpet in. Once I know she is leak free. I put dyna mat down and have a nice fresh Alpina interior installed with a fresh sound system.

What color is your car, looks really nice :-)
Nerzbraun or Zobelbraun perhaps??

You got it right. She is Zobelbraun It is her original color and I love it.

Did some more things today.

First I ran up to BMW of Omaha and got Some clips for my chrome trim. I then I came home and put it all on.



You can see I dont have the bottom chrome piece on this is because I'm waiting on my gaskets to get here Monday. Then I will put them on along with the other misc things that need done.

Next I mounted the mirrors. Will have to pop them off to put the bottom chrome piece on but I wanted to mount them anyways.



I got the alpina Valance off because she will be getting trailer'd soon and I dont wanna ruin it so once its road worthy and not needing trailer'd I'll pop it back on.

Then I moved to interior. I put my steering column trim on and cluster bezel on. Then I moved to the glove box but didn't get very far cause I noticed I'm missing my glove box latch so I'm gonna have to go grab one.





Hopefully Monday the exterior will be done and I will just have an exhaust left to make.

Zobelbraun is the most amazing color..
As is all the chrome model colors, Zobelbraun and Smaragdgrun are my personal favorites.

To fucking many... It's gotten all new Hardware TWICE the second time I even paid the premium and went to stealership. I found out alot of the new BMW's still use the same trim clips but you pay a premium. Passenger side took all of 5 min to get in.

When I press one side in the other side pops out so I try and holding one end down and use a towel and rubber mallet to tap the other end in and when i do get them other end in the middle pops out so i get the middle in and the ends pop out. And now the grommets are stuck to the kink rather the car so It makes it even more of a bitch to get in. and the grommets are 4.50 a piece at my dealership.

Finally after throwing a big fit and actually putting a hole in my basement wall (oops) I finally got I finally got my hofmiester kink trim on.





I then Put Vapor barriers on my doors and installed the door cards.
Also realized these cards are trash so new ones will be bought when my interior is redone this winter.





Door pulls are black because the green ones were broke and I couldn't find any others. the black will be fine though cause this winter my interior will be black.





Raised the car up a bit to make loading on the trailer less deadly to the gas tank. Tomorrow she goes off to my shop where I will be building the exhaust for it. hopefully by next week she is licensed and road worthy. Still have to get my sun roof fixed by painter but that shouldnt take long at all. So hopefully By April 1st at the latest I'll be hooning this bitch.

[ThatOneEuroE30]

nice.

Thanks.

Car has really Come along way In the 2.5 years I've had it. Once the exhaust is on and the paint is all fixed I'll start working the kinks out and doing the small things that will make it run better/smoother.

[bradnic]

I remember when it was posted up in the CL thread. Some thought it was a lost cause. Not for you.
