Hartge h26 project.....the long road:) Oct 2014 begins:)

Yup they are the 16"! Only size in the one piece 4x100 with that concave look I think....the others are 5x120

What do you have coming??

I have gotten... the H26 badge, M3-esque trunk spoiler and the valve cover (whewww.... maybe i shouldve bought the aero parts instead of that haha)

I'm trying to figure out how to drop the rear another inch or so... feels like it sits a little high. Also trying to suck it up with the tires I got - the road noise is pretty ridiculous... but they are at 90% tread ~_~

ok, thought you said you were getting 16's . They look great. I have my parts as of today:).
Will get pictures next week. Parts are at my daughter's house because we are moving I used her address:)
Aero parts; get them when they come up. I have not seen anything since I bought mine....
Be sure you do not have shock spacers in the back....I do, have to take them out later this summer....might drop my rear a bit....road noise? Might be the brand of tire...I am not sure, but someone on here will jump in with more information.
have fun with the car; it is coming along great!!!!

I do believe it's the brand of tire. I don't want to replace them just yet though because they're perfectly okay other than the noise.

Looking forward to seeing more progress with your car :)

finish some work more to come:)

Well, did a little work on the h26 this week in the middle of moving:). It is coming along. Might even get to the front spoiler next week. Next project is to put the speakers back in and clean up the carpet for the hartge mats mats that just showed up. They are nice, not heavy duty, but will do the trick. They fit well, and that is the main point.
Still looking for the little red cap that goes over the diagnostic port. If you have one cheap, let me know:).
on to some more pictures......



Oh, found this little trunk organizer awhile back....I need a couple of pieces of carpet, or side liner which I will pick up at the junk yard this week and the trunk will look a lot better..... and I need to take everything out and start cleaning when it stops raining:)

Those mats OEM? Or have them made?

Had them made; not sure where you would get new hartge mats? They are decent for the price:), but not like they are the real thing.

I'm sure in someone's basement there is a set new... ;)

Show some photos of the mats all around if you can. I am looking at having ACS mats made and I want to learn from yours.

Car looks great.

You could get them new if you traveled back in time ;)
