    im super paranoid about that for some weird reason, i think my engine will suck it all up.
    yeah I wasn't too happy when i saw that they were sanding without masking off the interior, the engine bay did have a drop sheet over it, but still..going to have a lot of cleaning to do

    thanks..and ever since h20 of last year I have been counting down the days..this car will make it to Ocean city this september!


    so I visited the car a few days ago...some body work and sanding has taken place..



    and as I now have a fuel cell, the gas door has been deleted..



    I also picked up a new set of carpets..here's a picture after a quick cleaning

    ah, i thought it might be for an early model valance...i like the look on the late valance, but the car needs to go a lot lower yet, and the lip would stop me from doing that.

    It still would have had to be moved over a few inches, and I saw this setup used elsewhere, so i thought it was the simplest solution.

    also i would recommend using the euro bumpers only and throwing those other 'things' away.nothing to do with your car,but as a european the other ones actually hurt my eyes!
    I thought I'd like the euro bumpers best too, but the euro plate section ruins it.




    So I got my new valance, and threw it on, and I've had this lip sitting at the shop for a while..I know it's for an e30, but does anyone know what model it's from...is it aftermarket?
