What do you want/plan/need to get done before Picnic '11?

[Rennsport]

Pulling the fenders and dropping the car low on Friday. Plus the usual wash/wax

[5Toes]

Fix my damn seat. My Mom and I tackle it today

[AbeSonic]

I finally got the wiring for my city lights! So I'm putting in my Euro Smiles today! :D
Also going to re-paint ever single piece of black trim that's on my car.

[Jand3rson]

Cutting it close Josh!

Tell me about it! I've been going INSANE. Even if it doesn't get done in time, we are still coming, it just won't be in my E30.

I've come to past Picnics in Jordan's E30 and a Scion xB, all that matters is we get there!

[IronJoe]

I'm excited, this will be my very first e30 Picnic!


Luckily since Leavenworth was last weekend, I don't have much to do besides wash it.


But I do need help mounting the front undertray. Anybody?

[Jand3rson]

Exhaust will be done in a few hours!

I'm happy to give you a hand, but if I could do it before the tech day. Want to bring it to griots and install it there?

[AbeSonic]

Yessssss! My final part has arrived in the mail today! I now have, Euro Smileys w/city lights, E36 window switches and finally a ZHP shift knob! Whoo whoo!!! :D

[Lof8]

I will attend one of these someday. I'm jealous.

Well, it'll finally make the e30 picnic, it died just after the 2008 e30 picnic, and have only driven about 10 miles since.

Just welded a new muffler/modified my exhaust. N/A m50 with ebay headers, custom (obviously) Y pipe that goes Dual 1.25" to single 3" to a magnaflow 3" straight through muffler, then to a Magnaflow 3" to dual 3" muffler. It's got an interesting note.

Just need to wash it now. And possibly get some 1/2" NPT hoses made for the oil cooler, still on the fence about that thing (Ireland Engineering oil filter hose adapter...). Cooler is mounted though.

Oh, and NEW TABS!

See everybody soon!

That'd be awesome Chris. I feel like I am missing something totally obvious but it just doesn't seem to fit. The part number is right, so... installer error

Do you have #11 in this pic? http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...11&hg=41&fg=10

You have #10 here right? http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...34&hg=51&fg=70

You dont' need them, but they finish off the area in the wheel wells. othewise, the lower tray just goes up in the wheel well (inside of #11) and clips into the front of the bumper skin.

[Jand3rson]

Looks like my car won't be there afterall this year. :( Exhaust was a total bust.

Andrew and I will still be there.
