    What did you end up doing with your brake situation? Did you trim the firewall or get a Porsche Master?

          With how much shit is in that sunroof, I may just remove the cassette even though I really don't want to=/

          In other news, I've been searching for non ///M lips for a few years and still haven't found any for sale. Im getting more impatient lately and really want one lol. Any from BBS, Zender, Hartge, Racing Dynamics, or AC Schnitzer.

                        I was holding that off until I get the engine in and the harness snuck through the firewall to meet the fusebox. I should also wire up all of my air ride components so I can easily run the wire/cables.

                            I need to do front brake lines first and I need to solve my master cylinder issue to be able to do that.

                                Been working on things here and there. 

                                Brand new quarter glass is in:

                                I then cleaned and reinstalled the B and C pillar trims, as well as a clean set of rear speaker trays (no pictures). 

                                I replaced all of the latch strikers as well since they looked a little dingy. New-Left  Old-Right

                                      Glad to see your commitment to perfection and attention to detail are still alive and well. 

                                      Most people dont know it but at the E30 picnic and Concours I inspect peoples door latch strikers. I have a running list of cars I would and would not buy if I ever saw them for sale.

                                          Pulled my steering column yesterday to rebuild it. Just waiting on my parts to arrive so I can put it back in all freshened up=) 

                                          20160428145959zps79uqyfic.jpg

                                          I also finally sourced a master cylinder to use and have ordered all of the brake line that I need to plumb the rest of my brakes. I got bored at work today and shaved off all of the casting marks. I will be painting it to match my engine block when I get home.
