My name is Earl, and I have a Stainless Steel bolt fetish =)

[Earl]

Not much at all. However, the girlfriend was thouroughly enjoying it, and got most of that done herself=)

[Earl]

I finally installed my Grip Royal and ashtray on saturday but couldn't get good enough lighting for a nice picture of it. I also peeled all of the plastidip, besides the bumpers. Then I started to get ready to shave, tuck, and rip out the lump=)

More updates will come after Saturday. Hopefully the motor will be out, or the strut towers will be shaved from the strut mount forward.

[Brian.]

Looking goood!

[Earl]

I labelled the harness and removed a few more things Saturday, since no one could come help me yank it out. Also got a really crappy picture of my interior. I made it black and white because the picture made the wood look very bright, when it is a pretty deep cherry color.

What motor is going in there?

Sent from the future. Or my phone, who knows.

[Earl]

The M42 is going back in=) Just freshened up with new gaskets, COP setup, and some schnazy paint.

Please tell me you're not gonna do anything stupid with the engine bay like some bright color or metal flake. I know your VW buddies would think it's cool, but trust me you'd regret it

[Earl]

It'll go back to a nice shade of simple black;) This is just going to be a subtle looking, cleanly modded Ti;) It won't be quick, but it'll look good. At least that's what I'm going for

[Earl]

Thank you=)

I stumbled upon this picture the other day. Someone took it while I was attending Eurowerks 6. This was the day after I sprayed on the plastidip. I wish I would have just cut bump stop then and been as low as I currently was. I also stumbled upon another that I will upload afterwhile.

[Brian.]

Get your new rims...

[Earl]

Working on it. Need the Style 5's sold first. They're being held for me so it's no big deal. I did pick up another set of Style 5's to refinish the barrels and sell them in pieces.

Found it=) Excuse my very dirty windshield.

[GunMetalGrey]

What is the width of the style 5's?

Sent from the future. Or my phone, who knows.

[Brian.]

5x120= useless for your E30. SON. Unless you're looking for the 330

[Earl]

lol they're 17x8 et20

Edit: I have 205/40 tires on it that didn't stretch whatsoever. It should be a mild nice stretch, but they ended up just being flush. Still looks nice and gives room.

[Brian.]

They didn't stretch, as in they didn't wanna stretch, or the tires were too wide? If they didn't wanna stretch due to the sidewall being stiff, run the tires on really low air pressure for awhile, it'll soften the sidewalls up nicely

The tires run a size wide=\ some 195/40's would have been better

[Earl]

Got my horn button in. I wish I had more updates but my MK3 was giving me problems the whole week and I couldn't get to the shop. Tomorrow I am hoping to start pulling the motor finally.

[YoungCR]

Very nicely done!

[Earl]

Thank you sir. I'm going for the elegant and classy look.

[wasnt m3]

There's nothing elegant or classy about a stanced ti;)
