    Yeah they are really close. I've been thinking of going with H&R sports and billies but wasn't sure of the difference with the HD vs sport on the billies.

    Right now mine is just on e30 M3 springs, so its a tad lower, not real sure how much as I bought like this, and I have the offset front control arm bushings

      Finally installed the P/S cap o-ring.. before finding the forums and trying things myself I went to a mechanic for leaking fluid and he charged me to replace the reservoir.. I later noticed it was still leaking. I see on the forums people talking about the o ring so I decided at a couple of bucks I could go wrong.. low and behold my cap didn't even have one...

      I also deleted my antenna. I have no radio in the car yet but when I finally install it I hope to run the antenna up the pillar

            Replaced my dead battery and all of the fuses.. I know some were blown, I'm sure most were good.. I guess I just had some OCD about them being old and mix matched brands and even wrong amperages for some.

              Finished re assembly. Had the interior fully gutted to repair leaky heater box. I got the carpet out in one piece!! And back in nice and clean.

                  I replaced my motometer odo gears that only counted every 4th or 5th mile to a new set from Garagistic. Much better to have a working odo again.

                  Also installed one of these on my now dry undercarriage:







                  Initial impressions are very good. Car feels/handles much more similarly to my 318is did now. Definitely helps with the "noodlieness" of the convertible's chassis.

                    Garagistic clutch stop. Grabbed it on sale. I use to jam my floor mat under the clutch pedal and now I don’t need to.

                              Cut a hole in the hood. That should help my engine compartment temps. A little nerve racking cutting into carbon fiber but it went way easier/smoother than expected.
