    Make sure that icv connector is actually seating correctly and clipping in. I'd try a bit of rtv if all else looks good. At least you'll still be able to remove it if you need to.

    I did.  The top part pops out I think a zip tie and some rtv should do the trick.

        It really goes with the theme of the whole build.

              That's all Pegasus had. Trying to support the local business. Maybe in the future.

                    Me too. They have been a huge help throughout this build. I walk in like a blind child and walk out like I won 24 hours of Le Mans.

                                  The M3 is in the garage on a jack stand awaiting a new passenger caliper or a front BBK to replace the frozen caliper.  I'd like to do the BBK route but sourcing a used set seems like it will take some time so Concours here I come!

                                  Pic to come.

                                  Now the real test.  Daily the E30!!  Kind of excited, not going to lie.  My first appointment today is with a job relocation via Johnson Controls and I guess the guy is originally from Germany.  Will the E30 do the selling for me??   We shall see.

                                    Exciting!

                                    Are those the flares that Kamotors is selling and if so what "size" are they? They look real good. 
                                    How much did you remove off the wheel arches, maybe an inch or two?

                                    AAAAAND  

                                    Do you have offset front lower control arm bushings / do you have low speed rubbing issues on u-turns like I do?

                                      They are the Ultrawides from Kamotors. 

                                      I cut a good amount and still need to cut some more on the rears.  I'll try and find a pic.

                                      I think they are offset. They are green!  I don't rub with 215s and 18mm spacers but I'm damn close.

                                        My fenders were fiberglassed out so this wouldn't be an exact template.

                                          Out of curiosity, how did you end up finishing the edges of the sheet metal you cut out? Also, didn't you have a Wilwood BBK on there already?
