        I showed my son how to install some nice used cross-drilled rotors on his sweet 325i. New pads, winter snow tires and wheels....bottlecaps ftw!

            I think I finally got the convertible all sealed up and not leaking, thanks to a bit of help from the shop foreman at the local dealership (guy knows his shit backwards and forwards).

            Also re-hung the exhaust on the coupe and threw on some tips from a Cooper S to cover up the nasty things that were there.

              Put a pair of 6.5s up front on the sedan. They mounted right in without modification :D

                got a drivers side door brake from the local pick n pull, cleaned it up, and installed it. hooray for no more pain in the ass door always closing when you don't want it to.

                  Pieced together a euro obc. Just need to put it in now. Over the weekend I cleaned off the rest of the old shit tint, installed my houndstooth rear "door" cards, and started work on my driver side seat rebuild. I also installed a US ellipsoid on the passenger side and euro grill on the driver side. Need to find the rest of the parts so my front can be complete.

                    Today I switched out headlight bucket assemblies from my 92 3181 cabby to my 91 325i dd. The cabby will be getting US ellipsoids, if I can get the severe pitting off the lenses. Also worked to get my fogs back up and working, repaired two corroded wires then I ran out of time.

                      put in a much better shape 2.93LSD, bolted up the newly repaired exhaust with an extra hanger, swapped in a better ICV, new pass. side tail light seal, tied back the wires for the replacement cruise control servo, cleaned the crap out of the trunk and interior...


                      ...found out the speed sensor in the new LSD doesnt work. will replace that in a bit. lol

                              Today I dyed my carpet Black (first coat) and mocked up my seats and consule.

                              It needs another coat me thinks.





















                              I hope you like :D
