A purists nightmare - E46 drift build

Tkuhn

Another wrap update but I cant help myself because I'm hyped hahah.

Finished the passenger door then got new clips installed on the trim and popped those on along with wrapping the door handle.

Clear side markers came in today

UPDATE.

More wrap progress. Got the driver side quarter, rear panel under the trunk (forgot to take a pic) and also the hood done!

and finally some non wrap related stuff Haha. Picked up this PMC Motorsport chassis mount shifter. Super nice and beefy piece!

Honestly I am slightly worried that my stock DSSR will become a weak point because of this shifter so that's on the list eventually. There isnt much banging gears with the track we mostly drive.

Update.

Got the trunk wrapped and installed the tail lights.

Also wrapped the driver side door. And got all the trim on.

Then got the fenders installed along with the chrome grills in the hood. Also fitted up the headlights and corners.

I found out when I was disassembling the car that the driver side axle was leaking some grease from the inner boot. Ordered up a boot kit which was $20 and even febi brand! So I rebuilt that axle today. Was super simple and quick.

Exciting package came in wayyyyy faster than I thought. This bad boy is straight from poland.

Musk Customs "M-package" front lip. Its fiberglass, but oh my is this a quality and solid piece! Fit the bumper so well I could hold it up in the air by the bumper and the lip didnt even move.

So hyped to get the bumper and lip wrapped and see this shit on the car on the ground!

Got some help from a friend that wraps things for a living tonight. Front bumper is done!

Next up is the lip, might redo the rear bumper since I got a glimpse at a better way to do a bumper.

Nice lip choice. Excited to see it installed!

Tkuhn

Mounted the lip to the bumper after work today

Also got my parts in to rebuild the passenger side axle so I got that done and ready to go in the car. Once I get the axle in all I have to do is throw the exhaust back on (although I'd like a new one in the near future) and shes ready to put on the ground

Also I dont think I shared this, not super exciting but I did replace the shift selector joint as well the other day.

Looking good. Always liked the Arqray lip.

After staring at the Musk one that I got and pics of the arqray one the musk one is more drastic. The curve inward is deeper and the bottom goes out further. Musk stuff is like that, they make a csl style trunk that is more aggressive as well. It has a taller sweep.
