              Finally started getting some parts in for my late model 318. This was the first to show up, other than the poly bushings, which I'm waiting on new suspension components to do.

              Of all the parts on order, this was the first to come in. The console was detailed immediately after this, so don't worry about the grime.

              z3 rack with garagistic kit
              Garagistic Offset FCA bushings

                How is the sound deadening? Is there a noticeable difference?

Its so weird having the trunk pop open now when I press the button to open it.

                                Also picked up a few more 885 heads which brings the tally to 4 now. I guess I'll get around to rebuilding them eventually.
