Lookin good man

As far as coolant goes I thought of it like this. I just spent 8k putting a s52 in my car, saving $10 on coolant isn't a big gain... so I bought the BMW stuff. I went as far as I did, why cheap out now? Its only 10 more bucks

I don't know if its really any much better, but I feel special when it looks like I have washer fluid for coolant ;)

Everything looks great, Jean! You're doing awesome work there, very clean. Could we get a shot of the rear plate filler mounted? I've never seen one on a black car before, and I'm getting one soon.

Here you go, I went with the us version as I don't plan on running a euro plate.



Got another dash to replace the one I got in the car w/o the o2 dummy light.

Looking excellent. You're coming along quick, but it looks like you're not skimping on the quality of your work :)

[Schniddy]

That is a euro rear plate filler man. Can you get a straight on shot for me? I had to have the rear re sprayed on mine and you can definitely see some orange peel that’s not in the rest of the paint. So a plate filler might do me some good.

It's a US filler. Has the four holes instead of the two for the euro plate. Other then that they look the same.

[Schniddy]

Well damn, I didn't know that.

[JasonC]

Neither did i till a week ago. Or i would of ordered that one instead of the euro filler.

[Jean]

I failed. I told myself no audio for this car, but that didn't last long. Nothing special, years ago when I was into car audio I would spend more on a single
hu than I just did on all of this. I just wanted something good quality with mp3 playback. Gotta pick up a 4ch amp and then mount the sub. I am thinking it will repalce my rear seat, so it will be mounted inside the cabin and not in the trunk.

Hey, I have the same exact speakers! They're pretty inexpensive, and the voicing on them is pretty good.

[FL318is]

This is a great documentary! Looking good man.

[Jean]

No more bottlecaps!

I know they aren't baller wheels or anything, but I do like them and they'll last me until the tires need to be replaced. Then i'll upgrade to 15x8s.

Also, swapped the dash for another one the other day, no more o2/seatbelt thingy.

[JasonC]

They are one of the best looking stock wheels around. I'm trying to get a set for mine. And just use the bottle caps for winter rims.

[golde30]

wow, such a difference from the first shots, and all in a pretty short time frame. i envy your spare time!:p

[tomgt325]

your interior = supa clean. did u do the diy red sharpy needles?

[JJe30]

Weaves are much better looking than bottle caps.
