      Anyone want to tackle the "Rear Bumper Strip" install into your front bumper to clean up the front end? I bought one of those "Filler" strips for the licence plate bracket on the DB cars. I think the rear strip up front looks MUCH cleaner, and love the look of the deleted/relocated turn signals.

      All you'd need is the bumper, and clean rear strip. I can provide the hardware. Just throwing it out there, planning on BBQ'ing at the same time.

        Also, DB with late model valence looks so good. It's really grown on me. That's all.

            Yes I want the look of that black car. I have to get my shit running right and then I can do the body work!

              That was the plan with my old delphin car. Late valances front and rear, but with diving boards. I like the look, at least.

              Looking like I am going to take the euro car to XXX this weekend. Zero motivation or time to work on the 330 the last few days.

                Oh god! I hate my life right now!! I'm replacing my subframe bushings today, and as I go and give the bolt on the subframe a whack and it just popped out! I said, easier then they say! Well it just so happens that the weld from the subframe mount is sheared clean and when driving, it wiggles up and down inside the cabin.

                  If it's anything like an E30, it's just a stud that fits into the body. I would double check that it isn't before going further.

                    The stud is still in that sleeve. It may be seized, so I guess it's no go while I can hunt down a shop to get that welded back up. Fml!
