    i bought this one from sherman martinez. i paid 2 bills for it with no hub and no horn button. ive watched ebay.de forever and they go from 300 to 700 complete. just depends. i know sherman has another or at least he did a few weeks ago. drop him a line at shermanmartinez at hotmail dot com and tell him you were talking to blunt and i said he may have another. if you can find a nice one grab it. they are getting more and more expensive. also note there are 2 diameters. 350mm and 380mm i went with the larger because it seems more period and i have a close ratio steering box and it would suck at slow speed with the 350mm

    Why is it that that door seal looks like shit? Is it dusty, or old or something? Everything about this car is so clean and/or new looking, that it really caught my attention in that picture where you are showing off the mirror.

    Tell me its just the flash or something. I cant believe you'd half-ass any part of this amazing project.
    thanks guys, that is a protectant like like super duper says. it just needs to be cleaned off. im leaving it until i actually start using the car. i also have to do something with the pinch molding around the door edges. dye it maybe? im not sure but it doesnt look as good as it could

    Thats just the baby powder that you see from Steve powdering up his buttcheeks and then sliding the gaskets through repeatedly.

    OOooO. i want that auto-dimming mirror. my new Lincoln TownCar has auto-dim on the side mirrors and the rear view, i like it and want it in my e30. also, those foglights w/HIDs will be retardedly bright. i love it.

    Wow...

    ...love it...

    ...reminds me of some of the cars I saw this year at "Vintage in the Vineyard"...

    hard to beat a nice '02, especially with some modern love. Nice work! Can't wait to see it done!
