Looking to get rid of my shifter slop, and maybe a shorter throw shifter, I can't seem to find anything decent for less than 300 bucks.

Is there an more cost effective way to properly do this?

Anyone selling a set of euro trim for a late model? need a complete set and i'd prefer not to buy new

Just fiberglass us trim

Ugh, no thanks. Not worth the level of effort. I don't have any US trim to modify anyway.

The little bushings...

Mine has a z3 shift lever in it. I don't know the cost however as it came with it... The shifts are nice and not super long, best I've felt, but I've not felt tons of cars.

Z4 3.0 is what I have on my car. Love it.

Anybody have experience with good exhaust shop around pdx/van area to weld on my magnaflow muffler that won't charge me arm and leg? Also still lookin for e28 wing...

[Pdxseth]

Are depo smileys discontinued?, you used to be able to get a set for 140 all day long, I can't find any for less than 225. Wtf.

Yep they've jacked the prices up like crazy. $60 tickets are now like $150. I don't even go anymore

Fucking blows. Would like to go before the season is over. I used to go all the time, but it's way too expensive to consider now.

I'll be using a complete 1999 z3 2.8 shifter mechanism, from selector rod up, using garagstic front carrier bushings and the shifter carrier; I'll post a video when all is said and done.

have been debating on doing all my body work myself, fixing scratches and door dings and rock chips and all the rust. after some minor rust repair i attempted fixing this area today because it was bothering me, and it turned out great so far. i think i'm going to paint the entire car myself :)

the lower rusty lower valance has already had its cancers removed and new metal welded in and repaired. now time for the upper area.



wet sanded and masked off





first coat of primer



second coat of primer



may wetsand and do 1 more light coat of primer, wet sand again then put on real paint x2 then gloss :)
