Small update
Old shift linkage is out, new dssr and RTD shifter are in! This shifter is absolutely worth the money and it feels great
I also wanted to make sure everything lined up good so I put in the poly trans mounts first. Really pleased that they only took about 5 minutes to put in
Crawling around under a car really takes a lot of energy 🥵last weekend I picked up the Max Velocity Evo front lip and will be messing around with that tomorrow

I think RTD is the same one that @suspenceful has? Maybe a different model, but the feel of his is like a bolt action shifter, feel was awesome.

Yup, I have an RTD in the 135i and his looks almost identical. Great shifters, can't mistake which gear you're putting it, that's for sure!

Graduated college and moved back to Green Bay for a month, then Ill be moving down to the Madison area!
Went to the local pick and pull today to get some parts for my Passat, and found a 99 vert out in the yard. It was 100% rust free and I managed to snag the x-brace, the guy behind the counter let me have it for free
It had a bit of surface rust so I cleaned it up with the wire wheel and sanded it down for paint
Painted it with some high temp caliper paint
Nice that the M3's have the mounting threads in the subframe already, and thankfully all the holes lined up perfect. Took maybe 15 minutes to put it in, start to finish
Pretty happy that I now have an x-brace and it cost me nothing and took little effort to put in!! I was also looking to get a x brace soon because when I dropped my exhaust I found that the OEM cross bar had taken a nasty hit at some point and wasn't even close to straight anymore

Do you just screw those pedal covers into the existing pedals?
Drilled and bolted in with lock nuts, the brake pedal is steel so it’s extremely solid. The gas pedal cover is just screwed in

hoping to see this car this summer sometime. If you are ever in the Milwaukee area with it let me know!
