Yea I am trying to recreate that new car smell and basically upgrade the feel of the interior, slightly more high-end but nothing to crazy.

The only thing I am super worried about with this build is what the heck the PO did to the wiring. I didnt realize it was this off when we bought the car.

Subbed. Excited to see what the interior is going to look like!

The interior bits look beautiful! Did you mount your own volt/oil displays in the cluster? I'm curious, it's a very clean solution!

I did not personally do it, I had Bavarian Restoration put them in when they were fixing and restoring the cluster. Its an option, they also put the demarcation of them both it looks very factory,

Member on here who was running a group buy at one time. He had one left new in box he was going to install on his own car but never did. Cost me a pretty penny but it came with all the install parts as well. The only thing it was missing was the spoiler which I bought used from someone else. Although I am considering going with an Mtech I rear spoiler.

You can get most of the parts from ECS, but they dont have the rear bumper which is REALLY hard to find. I found a few used ones on UK Ebay but none in great shape.

Ok so a little update. First my car did not have body colored mirrors, not sure why, was that an option, I figured by 1990 they all did, especially the 325is models. Oh well I swapped those out with some Alpine white ones I found really cheap. Very easy takes about 5 minutes. Little things but we are moving forward.
