      Reinforcements all done and stitch welded!  Need to hit it with some flat black paint.

      Just need to mount pass. side brake, bleed the brakes, install the titanium section of the exhaust and battery then start it up!

                  I usually take the Black Pearl out for closing days.  Today is one of those!  Closing on a Sussex condo this afternoon!

                  I've been getting a flickering oil pressure light that has turned to just being on all the time.  My VDO oil pressure gauge has remained consistent so I thought some wiring bugs have peaked out.  This morning, I dug through my nest of wires and coolant hoses to get to the oil pressure sending unit on the motor to see it was all oily.  Popped it out and threw on the the sending unit that was on my s54 sitting next to me.  Popped it back in, started it up and no light!   Success!!!

                    An old buddy of mine, Jon (@thic_f30), was in town and took a bunch of pics and videos.  He drove the wagon and I was in the E30. Video footage coming soon!

                        cool shots!

                        "M5 wagon"

                        i call a wagon a wagon, but "M5 wagon" just has a weird ring to it.

                          I finally got my OEM BMW windshield installed.  It has been in my basement for 4+ years.  New gasket and black center trim.

                          I tried to do it myself and hit a brick wall.  Mark the Glass Man came to my house and finished it off and filled in a stone chip on the wagon.

                            What was the issue? Also I never noticed until now that you have an M3 antenna on your car.

                              10 to 1 odds he couldnt get the locking strip to lock into the channel. its really a pain in the ass, even with the correct tool.

                                This!  I did not have the right tool.  Holy hell it was a pain! If I used the original gasket it would have been a lot easier.

                                Previous owner did an antenna delete and popped the M3 one on.  Love the look!

                                  Nice, I like it too! I always was a fan of the Fuba style antennas

                                        Oil and filter change! 

                                        Put some miles on today.  Hopefully will have 1 or 2 more days of fun until it goes away until winter.
