1990 325is restomod project aka "Klaus"

[Staszek]

Buy a Mtech dead pedal and the floor mats will cover the rest.

I would love too but the only one I have seen for sale was $600 and while I am blowing a ton of money on this car $600 for a damn dead pedal I just cant stomach, I mean thats part of my exhaust or the subframe right there.

Some goodies came in!! H&R springs, most of my parts for my entire suspension refresh, new bushings, control arms etc. Also got Koni adjustables not in the pic.

Waiting on my convertible 21mm front sway bar and new links and my rear 14.5mm M3 sway.

Sorry I didn't see this until now. Does it have to be original Mtech? If not here are two options for you. I prefer the former rather than the latter.

Both options are a lot cheaper than $600. And the former is a full set that you can get the Motorsports M engraved on them including the dead pedal. Happy New Year.

I actually bought this the other day, we will see how I like it. They actually had a group buy on this forum and E30tech 3 or so years ago.

A few small updates again. It finally warmed up enough to work in the garage again. It was pretty cold a few weeks ago and the garage isnt really heated.

Anyway stopped by the inlaws place and was able to get the door cards installed. This was actually more of a pain in the ass then I thought. These are the ones I bought on ebay, they look great and the quality is good, but I think due to them being recovered and not from my car originally they are were off just slightly on some of the screw holes. It all worked but had to struggle a bit to get them all lined up. hope I dont have to take them off anytime soon.




Also hard to see but I installed the LED alarm light in the door panel. I connected it with a quick disconnect so if I had to take the panel off it would be easier.


I also installed the M3 antenna on the roof, should have taken more pics. It wasnt too hard, ran the antenna cable down the right side of the roof.

[Kershaw]

That looks so good.

Yep, full OEM MTech II kit and repaint down to bare metal.

I'm going to do the S54 swap first this spring before o do the paint so I don't mess up the paint while working.

Looking good brotha!

i like the door trims.. Is that from the mob in the UK?

[cory58]

Those door cards are sweet! John made a great seat kit for me also (tan uberkaro cloth centers and natural vinyl bolsters) and I'm trying to figure out what to do for door cards. Does the ebay source you bought from make these as a business, or were yours just a one off? Can you tell if the centers on yours are a separate piece that's mounted on top of the main door card? Any info would be much appreciated.

It's this guy, he is out of Germany and does it as a business. I'm pretty sure he will do any color you want. Just email him.

Thanks. Looks like he does great work.
