I've started templating out a splitter, More so going for Undertray W/ splitter tunnels. Drawings are still ln the works. Using a proper splitter angle, the front will be too low if to go back past the rack for a street / Track car.. Kinda bumped but trying to keep it 1-2 degrees..
The deer damage is still pending through Hagerty, they sent a check for half the amount the actual body shop estimated, and in the end we know till be more. Grinding my teeth a bit to much on this, I'm sure once it gets moving ill feel better.
Slowly de-clutter of shop to regain space, Also thinking space, lots of stuff gathered after 10 years...
Short punch list.
Standalone ECU With mentioned I/O / Carbon airbox, sort intake
Alternatively working OBC
Windshield frame repair, Fender Repair, LR 1/4 repair
Splitter / undertray, Rear Kooglewerks wing.
Hope to scrounge up some loot to send off for a deposit to AMX in Poland and purchase some materials to have my door cards redone proper
At the vintage
Times flying

You could run and alarm on your dash for Low Bat. I've always ran a Diode to keep the alternator charging back though the D+ to help with the Master / Kill switch process. Especially if Solenoid, solid state, or contactor style.Leave a comment:

That's awesome, I've never seen anything like that. Thanks so much.
I had just taken the bulb holders out of the cluster and put them into the radio blank panel, but it doesn't look very good. I got a metal gauge cluster delete (blank) panel off eBay.
I'll need three, the two you have plus BAT (for the alternate excite).Leave a comment:

16mm Design your own laser etched pilot light Design your very own laser etched pilot light with this listing or you can leave it blank as per photos the option is yours. 16mm 12v LED warning lights great for oil & fuel pressure lights and anything that requires a very bright light. Warning light design tips: (TEXT
They were able to do the font I requested in Helvetica Light Condensed, which seems to match the factory text quite well.
Actually was looking at this today for some other car..

Thanks! It goes pretty well for a 3.25:1 Rear gear. I think I may do 6 speed and 3.64 in the future.. Trying to avoid adding weight back into the car.
Thanks! We've came a long way!

Thanks John, Its good to see updates from you too. I don't care to much about social media. Other than to connect with other like minded folk. I have enough work. Just not many BMW geeks around these parts that want to work at a higher level..
Happy Holidays!
The next form will sound even better. Coming soon! Thanks! This place just seems like the cars home to document. Along with a handful of other E30's here. A bit of the documentation comes from frustration of hearsay on the internet of things that don't work as people say they do. And part boredom of the E30 modders / hackers out there.This thing sounds so damn good. Hope to see this car in person again at some point in its current form. One of the coolest e30 builds I can ever think of.
to reiterate what others have said, awesome job with the documentation of this. In a world of VLOGs and instagram, it’s sweet to current build threads to read through.
