found some plastic pieces that look about the right shape to be shock towers for the engine bay.

While I was outside the other day, I thought I’d clean up the grungy exhaust tips on the E30. I haven’t really paid attention to them since I have a muffler waiting to go on, but with all the house stuff going on, car stuff is kind of on hold. So I just do little things here and there when I have a chance.

New project! My little sister’s first car. It’s a 1989 325i cabrio. It doesn’t run at the moment, but we’ll keep track of the project here and also on R3V. I’ll add a link to the thread.

Last Sunday, we went to BMW Accessory fest in Glendale, CA. There were a lot of cool cars there, and I even won the raffle for the BMW Sauber F1 polo shirt!

Finally replaced the old, grungy, and slightly leaky coolant expansion tank with a fresh one:
One day I’ll replace the windshield washer tank, but since it’s not that critical, it can wait a while.

The rear tire just barely kisses the fender lip with 215’s. I’ll get them rolled so I have the option of running 235’s.

As I mentioned before, I hit a snag on reinstalling the strut bar.
Since the new front shock adjuster shaft is taller than the old regular shock, I had to grind a notch out of the strut bar to give it some clearance.

So today I finished up installing the rear suspension before shipping out some more wheels. 😉
I think the ride height is exactly where I wanted it. Nice and even. Because my driveway doesn’t really have any level spots, this is the best picture I could take for now.
But hey, it’s done, and now all I have to do is lose 25 lbs so I can start crossing those other things off my list.
