omg! i just went page by page reading everything, I really wish I knew how to do ANY of that on my own. I bet the feeling you get at the last few steps will be pretty therapeutic.

Grats!

[motorsports_3]

wow thats all i can say besides paint my car!

Thank you. Bring it down...

Black spoiler would have looked good with the shadowline trim. Great job though :D

Thank you. I still think I am going to redo the spoiler in black

Sure. Haha, thanks

Thank you for taking your time and reading it.

Well I got a lot of stuf done the past few days. The pics kinda suck, because It was hard doing this stuff alone, as I did most of it, and kept getting frustrated. The exterior is pretty much done. I just have to put the plate liner, and the emblems, but those will be a final touch.
Xenon Fog put in. Sorry for crappy pic

Grilles in

Painted the B pillars

Moldings on


New rubber gaskets, such a difference

Sun roof on

And working



And sun roof headliner on. The pic makes it looks worse than it really is. Just needs a wipe down

I also got the rearview mirrors on, but I didnt get pics.
It is coming together fast. Now on to the interior...

[e30325ic]

Looking good.

[motorsports_3]

So I got a great deal of work done the since the past update. I have been super busy, so I would do a little bit of work here, a little there. I didnt have my camera until today, so I dont have as many pics as normal.
I got the side markers on


I got the interior put in.
Steering wheel middle was painted to look new again

Front Headliner put in along with A pillar liners

Back seat in

Door panels and door weather strip on




Rear Deck on

GOt the trunk back together, and clean. I need a new carpet. This one is not even for an e30

I got the door sill moldings on


I also put a new guage cluster in. MY old one stopped working. When I went to go change my SI batteries, I still didnt fix it. The new one works perfect and the odometer works also!!! :excited:
I know I need to clean the interior up bad. I also need to touch up little spots outside and inside.
Here are some random pics of the car

Moar pics! Yes! it's looking really complete. Soon you will run out of things to do and you will have to put the wheels on it. That is what i'm looking forward to seeing. This car has come such a long way.

[M42Technik]

Or he'll repaint it...again.

:-P

[e30this]

Fix that trunk seal. Im sure you could stretch it out more.
That is actually supposed to be flipped arounf and the slit should be back by the trunk lock.
To bad you didnt have the rear tech 2 bumper to match.

Looks really good, great job.
Plans for wheels?

I fixed it today, thanks for the heads up. I plan to get the OEM tech 2 rear and spoiler as soon as I find one I can afford.

Thank you, you have helped me alot along the wa. Coming form you that means a lot.

[motorsports_3]

Guess What???


Figure it out?
These pictures do no do it justice. As soon as I wash the car and clean the interior I am going to do a good photoshoot of it.


The front caps went on later. I had to polish them to practice. I will be doing the wheels soon.


Gromets on

Emblem on


Preping for the hood seal

Cleaned out

Evo Hood Seal on. I really reccomend this to anyone with an e30. These are from ZEN performance



Rear gasket on

M tech stickers on


Euro plate on

Fixed the sunroof liner


I also adjusted the sun roon, front and rear bumpers. But dont have pics.
I noticed on the rear bumper you are going to see a gap, I cant fix it, because the alan screws that hold the bumper in are rusted welded shut, and I got it with the bolts stripped. I do not have all the adjustability with it that I would like. It is okay though, it is just temp.
In the near future I still need to re clear the tail lights, do the ICE install, and Finish with the windshield and rear windows.
Then it goes on for a long time...

nice job! now you just need to start on that crusty engine bay :p

with all the work you've put into the body and interior, I'd be considering a motor swap.

[Bimmerista]

Car looks beautiful! Just a few more touches & you've got an ideal sedan!

Glad you went red on the rear spoiler, I think it looks a lot better.

Yeah the motor is extremely dirty. I am delaying it as much as possible. I should be cleaning it soon, maybe this week.

A motor swap is in the plans. I almost bought a s52 for a great ass deal. I slept on it and missed it. I want to buy a motor as soon as I can afford it.
