    Been working on the car as much as my spare time and money allow, ended up blowing both seals out the steering rack so that got replaced. Modified the front bumper and wrapped it so the car is all one color again

    Installed my CRS chassis mount shifter, Condor Speed shop solid trans mounts and a stainless steel DSSR, pretty happy with how it shifts but I still have more side to side wobble than I am happy with so I get to figure out whats causing that. I did have the shifter threaded so it takes regular shift knobs rather the stupid push on style. Oh, I also put like 3 coats of VHT wrinkle black on the shift rod, was not a fan of the bare metal look

    Love the way the car looks with the kit and everything

    No new parts on the car yet have a ton of stuff ready to go just need to get a day on the lift so I can put everything on. Took the e36 for a 700 mile round trip to Leavenworth Washington for the all euro drive. The car ran perfectly and I had a ton of fun, got to meet some people from here and see a ton of cool builds. I will post of some pics once I get them uploaded, cant wait to go back next year.

    Definitely post the pics. Been trying to go to Leavenworth for years for that drive, but it always conflicts with another trip I take that time of year.

    Front bumper got redone so I can run it, should have it wrapped in the next couple but I love how aggressive the car with it on. Amazed at how little it scrapes at this height even dropping the kids off for school in the mornings

    Figured out the front bumper issue....joys of buying used, the po put the front lip on almost an inch lower than it is supposed to be. So that is headed back to my body guy in the morning to get remounted in the correct spot. When that gets back it will get wrapped and put on along with the already wrapped rear half bumper

    I would rather go to a big taller tire, I still daily the car so a little extra sidewall would be nice haha

    Thanks guys! Going to be going to a bit taller tire so we can run the rest of the Cliq tuning kit. I am on 215/40/17 now but I think stepping up to a 215/45 and raising the coils a couple turns should buy me enough room to run the kit....hopefully
