    Here are some pictures of the camber plates, all the way from Germany. Also I put my lip on and couldn't even get out of my complex, it was ripped off and had to pick it up in the street. Going to find a better way to mount it, or get a smaller one.

    What ever happened with the style 19's? Almost picked up a set the other day.
    Specs were way too small so I gave them to my brother. After running the style 5s then, picking up the style 19s I decided to buy three piece wheels instead of making the rc090s and build them according to spec

    Thanks man, I'm almost done. I've set up a appointment for my paint and finish bodywork with a local shop.

    Yup, if you have experience it should be no problem but I have never took apart a dash so it was a first for me

    It was a PITA, but maybe because it was my first time. The center console has to come out, the steering wheel has to come out, and the wire loom zip ties have to be cut, I think the bolts were 13mm and torx25. If you have some freetime just to work on it I say go ahead, but with no second car I say don't do it.

    How bad was the dash swap? Mine came with a full black interior swap minus dash, console, and carpet.

    Found majority of the black interior pieces that i needed for my swap, i took a trip up to atlanta to find the last pieces which were drivers side door panel, and the driver side seat. I found the door panel but still no luck with a decent condition black driver seat. Heres some pic whoring tell me what you think.

    So small update today, received my camber plates in the mail today along with other mis. stuff. So hopefully install of the new front custom coilovers and going to be doing some measurements for my wheels. End spec's 18x9.5 et 13 front, 18x11.5 et 15 rear. Also picked up some 328i side panels because I like the look of the more curved than straight heres some pictures of a mock up.

    Turns out it was some type of anti-theft fuse that blew. Preventing power from going to the starter, problem fixed and new updates coming soon.

    Dude that is exactly the color I was looking for. I will definitely post pics o after color. Also my car has been having electrical issues lately. I just replaced my driver side door latch assembly, I crank the car up, rolled my window down and it started to creak so I turned car off. When I tried to start again, it did not start at all now my windows or sunroof does work, but my radio and all lights do. Also it sounds like the immobilizer since it started and now doesn't any suggestions?

    Thanks guys, and unfortunately the color won't stay it is in terrible condition and it's time for a respray. What do you guys think jet black or madeira violet. I like the idea of the violet with gold plated faces but you just can't beat a black e34.
    Do Bmw Techno Violet.
