Subbed.

Love the build.

While I understand the fender flares are for function, I am not a fan.

I'm not either, at least for how massive they are. That being said, we will be making smaller, more aesthetically pleasing, rivet-on flares for my E46 M3 project.

More from last night!

Unfortunately the tires didn't come in till yesterday afternoon, which posed new fitment problems up front. Flares were done, but additional clearance had to be made to the flares, bumper, sideskirts, chassis, etc to allow for full range of motion. Final wheel and tire set-up for tomorrow is the 18x11s, now at et-12 (after adapters) up front and et-22 (after adapters) in the rear, with 315/30/18 Hoosier R6 slicks all around.

The Radium Engineering fuel surge tank, StopTech Trophy front and rear brake kits, the new built 3.15 LSD, Driveshaft Shop 1,000 hp axles, and a new steering column were all also installed this week! This car should be a real monster tomorrow on the track!

Anyone that wants to see this bad boy in action should signup for Shift S3ctor's track day at Streets of Willow tomorrow! Shift S3ctor is by far the best track organization to run with in CA. Sign up before it's too late!

[e30polak]

oh god yes this is good! also thats the CSL trunk right?

Yes. We may end up going with an FRP or CF stock style trunk when we get the adjustable high rise wing for the car though.
