only like 250 bucks. just put "e28" into ebay motors and you'll see the set. i got them from fap. yeah, fap. haven't fapped in or on the car since installing the fap parts, so not sure why they're called that, but whatever.

alright, thanks! thats a lot less than i though they'd be

i know its from 5 pages back but how much did all the frontend parts cost you? i just picked up a 535i and it could definitely use some bushings and tie rod ends haha

This car leaks power steering fluid incessantly. It's aggravating.

Dents are almost gone. Just some final sanding on the hood and fender. Front pass fender and right rear door are done, as are a few little parking lot dings in the quarter panels. And I removed the drip rail trim, which was surprisingly easy. Next to come off is the rear bumper and trim, then it will be ready for a final sanding, followed of course by prime and paint

[C-Hutch]

Doin' a touch of the burnouts myself

[softg]

this is awesome, and hank is really awesome

[Khalil]

yeah man. i don't think e28's like their paint for the most part.

Well I did some more sanding and such. a few spots are actually done, which is a miracle, because when I do bodywork it generally consists of applying bondo, sanding it off, re-applying, sanding it off again... yeah that goes on forever until i get it kind of almost close to paintable. didn't take pictures of that because they all would look about the same. I also replaced the power steering pump because mine was a leaky, groany piece of shit. didn't take pictures of that either because that's boring.



MORE LATER, SKANKS.

Holy fucking shit I did the same thing ...bitch is taped on for years.
Yup paint sucks balllllllsssssss. Going to have a good time sanding shit and getting rid of rust lol.

Did some weekend shenanigans in Hank the Tank, but not before putting the Koni reds on the rear and swapping to the stock rear wheels with old ass dry rotted tires. The goal was to dry to do a bit of drifting (which honestly, I've never really tried before) So naturally, I did some crashin' and smashed up the front valance even more.



Ended up sliding around in the dirt a bit...





But eventually got the hang of it







Then I had to fix some stuff I broke on my offroad excursions



and destroyed the worthless tires! They went to a good cause.



Also, did all the shenanigans way out in the middle of nowhere where we wouldn't bother or endanger anyone.

LOL "the right way"

A momma always loves her babies equally. Well, ideally I guess. Unless that momma has a redhead. Then she'll like the non-redheads better, because they have souls and the readheads don't.

Or would she dislike the ones with souls because she is envious

[DannyE32]

the right way, lol

i thought there was gonna be a CAI involved. (or at least a metallic elbow)
