Busy day at Mpower5266's Casa De Bimmer, e24 content.

buy some spacers and it would look super sick

I actually think the diving boards kinda work on the e24s. But I believe Cj is hunting for euro bumpers.

Yup . Can't really tuck the bumpers much at all without there being a big gap between it and the bumper surrounds.

[mpower5266]

that looks like an amazing improvement. definitely need to tuck that front bumper though

Finally out of the garage. Once its tagged and cleaned up, I will do my best to do a proper shoot. It got a little stuck in the back yard.

I'll get taller tires after this set is done, and you're right about the spacers. I'll go back to Nick's place later this week to work out how much spacer I'll really need. Oh and I need to have it emissions tested and registered. Then it'll be on the road and the Mustang will be for sale.

Looking good guys. You're right about needing a taller tire, though. 205/45 should do it.

30mm spacers or even 40mm adapter-style spacers would do wonders.

So today we finished up some little things; got the power seats moving, got the aux fan blowing, and attached the front spoiler. Sorry about the crappy pics, it was late, and the grass was too wet to move it away from my basement shop too far.





For those of you that might notice that the spoiler doesn't quite fit correctly, you are right. Apparently the spoiler is for a car with "world bumpers" so I had to quickly fab up some brackets to make it work.

[theseeker411]

Well the suspension is like 2 days old, haha. I expect it to settle a little bit more. I won't go lower till the roads around Atlanta get better.

[Reudiger]

your car looks good! you need a little bit spacer and lower. but the car is great, the wheels are great und i want to see more of your car

[theseeker411]

Mike and I were talking about 25s. I need to get the fenders rolled first though.

[SeanDub]

Yea, I agree. Probably close to double that..

[phillygs3]

Very nice , But I think your gonna need more than 15mm spacers

[xlr8rbob]

great progress. nice upgrade from the e28.

[theseeker411]

Lol, the Spax springs give it the lowest drop possible, unless I go coilovers.

Yeah, the e24s can run a lot more (less?) offset than the e28s for some reason. I don't really need the wheels to be flush, but a little bit (ok, a lot) more spaced out would be nice. I'm ordering some spacers next week after I get paid.
