West side of town off Oakwood. You from around town? I see a bunch of e36's tooling around town - not a lot of older stuff though.

Well - now that Christmas is here and gone it's time to kick it into high gear on getting this beast ready for spring!

My brother got me a nice hardcover Bentley for Christmas, and I also got all new braided stainless brake lines from I.E.

CATuning coilovers should be here hopefully end of next week - and preordered my wheels today as well.

16"x9" 1 piece rollers. Nothing "special", but fit the budget and will look great for at least a year or so. Unfortunately they're not released yet, but I preordered one of the first sets which should be here in early March.

More to come as I get wrenching and parts arrive!!!

Called to pick up my new coils at FedEx ground in Oshkosh today.... Coils haven't been seen since they "left" their Sacramento hub last Friday.

Awaiting a call back - but I don't have a warm fuzzy feeling about this.

That sucks. I'd like to see those in person and how they ride when you get them.

I'll snap a bunch of pics if/when I get them. I'm confident they'll get low enough for me, I'm hoping the dampening and spring rates are where I expect them.

Some shipping donkey at FedEx in Cali probably has them on his E30 already.

Started getting the interior cleaned up to go in. Seats are a PITA to clean because of the dimples, but are in really good shape!

They were $1000 shipped before New Years - but they've changed their pricing and ordering as of Jan 1. You have to order them with the hubs welded on now, which with new hubs welded (after core refund) is $1250. Still a great price.

I'm SUPER impressed with the quality. Shock body is massively thick, anno looks fantastic, detail work is spot on.... I couldn't be happier with them right now. Super anxious to get my fronts apart and up to Tyler at Arc Asylum to weld them up!

After WAY to many hours with a toothbrush, 409, and Meguiars Leather Conditioner...... Interior is finally cleaned up and ready to go in.

Pulling old interior and carpet out next - cleaning and dying some pieces - then get everything reinstalled!!!
