Great looking wagon, I have enjoyed watching it come together.

been awhile since ive updated, so ok i took 'er up the street and took some pitchas, bitchas. big resolution comin ur way.

[ducatipaso]

my pop is in town. when pop's in town, shit happens.

what do you say to a 73 year old santaclaus lookin guy when he buys these 2 items at the local joint?



or what you do with these?



and this? kinky!



you put it all together for a money shot



all glass, in. all beltline side mouldings, on.
next up: drip and roof rails.

[ethirtydavid]

keep em comin

[ducatipaso]

update:

I had a whole lot of shitty body side mouldings, they all looked like this:



a replacement set of repops is $110 not including the hatch, OEM approaches $500. so, I decided to clean em up a bit. so, I bathed them in hot soapy water, then I deburred the top edge on all of them, wiped them aggressively with acetone and ended up with a much better looking [but not perfect] moulding. these will suffice until I'm ready to pony up the cash for new. hard to see in this photo, but before is above, after is below.



I bathed and wiped down the lower door mouldings, now I have a cartful, ready to install



I also took an inventory of roof rack items. This is the whole lot laid out on the bench



each pedestal has this hardware to mount it and seal it



needless to say, the last thing I want is my car to leak from this location, so I created a shopping list



and then decided to fiddle with the door top trims. these were pretty buggered up and need to be removed again to do the door frames, so I just kinda tossed em on to make the car look a little more complete



so there you have it.

heh mutant RT... on the bmwmoa site I'm known as the 'Airhead Butcher'. I'm trying to resist overaccessorizing the wagon... sticking to the datacard.

sometimes complete oem is just so nice. mudflaps? whitewalls?

good to see the mutant RT btw.

[ducatipaso]

oh ok, fawg then.

i saw an audi a6 3.0 with 2 rear fawgs 2 days in a row. its the dark blue one in LO that has the big DUCKS decal on the back of the car and 18's with stock ride height. maybe you have seen it. anyway, he has both of his rear fawgs on at night whether he knows it or not.
