          Cleaned up the rear fog light wiring and bought a few goodies to help with the rear euro bumper instal (in case some of you didn't know I scrapped together the money and bought it, will get here monday). The caps and washers will cover up the many holes in the rear from the previous diving board bumpers. I also got the official BMW Intensive Cleaning Fluid. They actually don't make Intensive Cleaning Fluid anymore they only make Windshield Fluid with Antifreeze, so I got that and put it in.





          New connector on top and old connector on bottom

          They all fit in the plug housing nicely

          and just like factory


          More updates to come throughout the week... none of which are the euro bumper, but are fun little surprises

            This is for you e30frosh




            Current glovebox with manuals and oem cigarette lighter converter.. thingy...

            replaced with Glovebox torch




            This was a cool little upgrade I saw a bunch of cars at the BMWCCA Clean Car Contest I went to had. This gets bonus points towards the glovebox (even though i got full points for mine) and it looks cool and is handy at night!

            Envious Surprise coming soon. I'll save the news for when it arrives. (it's not the bumper)

                instead of using the black caps to cover the holes, have you thought of just using body filler and paint the areas, being that your car is black and its pretty discernable from the bottom (ha, thats what she said) me think no one would notice....arguably itd be cleaner.....and more euro ;)

                  Haha love those kind of jokes. "The Office" lives off of them.
                  I did consider that before the washers and the way TDE30 did it, but since I already have the hardware, I'm going to try it and if it looks like shit then I'm doing body filler and getting a rattle-can of Schwarz from BMW and going over the rear valence.

                  My wallet really took a beating today... :( Necessary for the euro bumper instal though. As nice as my bumper will be, it unfortunately did not come with the end caps for the trim. These are almost impossible to find used (I don't know why) and very expensive new, however new was best to match the rest of the trim on the bumper.








                  The special surprise is going to be put on hold for a week or two until I heal my wallet.

                          wait, are you being serious? I took those pics at almost every angle. What angle do you need?
