    Slowly but surely (s52 5lug cab)

    Hello everyone! I started this project almost a year ago and it's not even close to where I want it. I have a long list of things that I need/want in order to say I'm finished. Here is a small list of such things:

    Hardtop (done)
    Black carpet
    M tech interior cloth (done)
    Matching recaros (done)
    E36 M tech steering wheel
    Front valance
    Rear bumper
    IX flares (maybe)
    Skirts
    Paint
    New door/window seals and trim
    ACS type I 3 piece (my OZ Mitos are for sale) (done)
    Ect. Ect.













    Thanks for looking!




    I'm torn between my OZ mito and the ACS type I's

            Yeah, I've made up my mind. The Mitos are officially for sale. $2k takes them.

                  Well, the passengers swapped right in.....

                  The drivers needed a custom mount. Just a piece of unistrut. nothing fancy.

                  Both are extremely comfy and 100x better than my stock seats. I think I like the passengers better because of the bigger bolsters.....you fit more snugily in it....

                  If anyone has some recaros for sale please let me know!!!

                      i have a set of these E21 Recaros as well. I have the driver side bolted in, but need brackets or something to get my passenger side in.
