    Still running really rough, but having the exhaust on is another step closer to it being streetable again.

    I did keep an eye out for wheel factories. I don't think we were in the right area though, haha.

    I have more progress to report on the swap though! Believe it or not, haha.

    I cracked my windshield before taking the M50 out because I opened my hood just a little too much without paying attention. Finally had a guy come out, remove the windshield from the parts M3, and install it on the almost fully functional 332is. No more "I <3 Boobs" sticker though.

    I then installed the brand new cowl cover I got from the dealership as well as the windshield wipers(exciting I know). Don't worry, this update gets a little better.



    I also installed the Sparco's I've had sitting in my garage for close to 2 years(maybe it was actually more, who knows). No more Vader induced back pain! You may recognize them from SeanDub's old Alpine M3.



    I then had to make my CF Dinan intake fit. I had to trim the Bimmerworld intake elbow by about an inch, and the 3.5" coupler I got by half an inch. It now lines up great with the bracket/heat shield/pass through or whatever you want to call it.

    Haha, ya. Between making time and ordering parts, this has by no means been a quick build.

    Holy hell this is a slow build, remember posting here a year ago
    But slow and steady is better than no progress at all.

    Lets not keep our expectations too high here. Haha
