              So a few parts came in for the projects, mainly from BMW NA:



              Hmm...what do we have here?



              Oh that's right, it's one of the OEM CSL seats - he bought 2 full sets front and rear!





              It's like XMAS in May - what's in this box?



              Oh it's just one of the 12 OEM CSL wheels he bought!





              A couple brand new E30 dashes that are being wrapped and stitched in leather this week





              Oh and 3 brand new M-tech 2 steering wheels



              Frank also went with big brakes on all the cars. Here's the s52 turbo E30 M3 we built sporting the Wilwood 6 piston front, and 4 piston rear kit.

                  How did you get BMW NA to sell you the CSL seats and other parts that never came on US spec cars. They wouldn't sell us a rear wiper switch for a E30 touring until we could show that it was legally imported and registered in the US.

                        Toes.. I'm thinking the fact that he is who he is and the amount of crazy exposure he's going to bring to the E30/E46 community really appealed to BMW NA.

                        That probably helped alot. Either way, this is going to be big. Hold on to your cherry E30's and E46's this may make them worth alot more.

                        Kudos for taking the projects on with gusto. Props!!

                          I don't think BMW NA doesn't care about getting exposure of E46's and E30's, they don't sell those cars anymore. They would wan't him to be in a new BMW, one that someone could go buy at the dealer.


                          Are the E30 M3's being painted Fire orange, the same color as the E92 GTS/Limerock

                            BMW NA have been really helpful in getting us the CSL parts from Europe. :grin:

                            Only the s52 turbo car. My E30 M3 that I sold him was painted alpine white.
