JUNE 15, 2010
Just ordered my some Axis OG San's in Gunmetal with a polished lip... 15x8 w/ a +25 offset. Got em for $650 shipped brand new... very pumped plus its not a wheel I see a lot... and I'm too poor for Formula Meshes lol.
Also have springs on the way, paid for em this morning, should drop me about 2.25 inch. Next up will be shocks.
Just ordered my Blistein Sport's as well... this next week will be very fun waiting for all my parts lol
Also have ordered some other little things..
Ebrake handle
battery cover
turn signal covers and side markers
Yellow Hi-Beams (not painted.. real deal out of Germany ones)
JUNE 18, 2010
Well my wheels showed up today (haven't seen them yet, wife text me while I'm at work)
Also took the 325es badge off and pinstripe off, just need to get some adhesive remover to finish the job. Also shopping spacers bc I'll have to get one.
Also locally found a guy with tons of e30 stuff so I might have a full interior after this weekend.
Also have decided to do a plastic bumper swap, just gunna start with the front for now though. Should have my bilsteins Tuesday, springs mon or tues, yellow hi beams tues, brows tues or wed. Also ordered a Bentley Manual and should be here Monday lol.
Tire wise I'm thinking of going with 205/50/15's
JUNE 19, 2010
These came in yesterday!
JUNE 19, 2010
So today I did a couple things, first up I removed the pinstripe and glue.
Then I repainted the grills and kidneys black
Then I had taken my antenna out and need some sort of plug. So I found a generic gasket from a parts store, flipped it inside out so it would fit, then I stacked two buttons, then a dime and took silicon and glued them all in and topped it off with a dime. Then took silicon and put a beer bottle cap on top for look... don't know how I feel about it yet but it looks way better than the half up antenna
JUNE 20, 2010
So today I test fit my wheels (sorry no pics) and I will def have to get spacers.
Today I also buffed and washed my car, gotta wax it tomorrow, here is after the buff and wash.
JUNE 21, 2010
Few things I got today
Light switch & grill brows
