Dude, you're an updating machine. The ride looks so much better without the body side molding.

Haha. Well I should have waited until the second update and then done one. Yeah I didn't think they looked bad but after I took them off I was like WOW! And thinks for updating my thread!

Thanks! I didn't remove the bumper but I put a piece of card board behind it. I wasn't planing on keeping it but I loved it, so I keep it.

My roof spoiler? It's the same one everyone gets from ebay. I believe the seller is thebmwspoilershop or something along those lines. It's been a little while since I've had it.

Possibly, it would have been a good while back though. I saw a white type s with some gold bbs lm reps in murfreesboro but idk who owns it. He's not on here or the local forum.

Update:
Installed Vled 6k switchbacks and resistors
Also had the fenders rolled properly

Thanks guys!! I had someone local roll my fenders and he did a great job, he also to the 2 pics by the storage building.
I'm kinda stuck on what I want to do next. I'm seriously thinking about ordering 2 18x10.5 +30 for the rear but I dunno if I want to go ahead and get wider tires. Plus I'm saving for my house and working on my chevelle. Ahhhhh!!! To many money projects haha.

Update:
18x10.5 +30 in the rear
NEW TIRES F:225/40 and R:235/40
More low in the rear to make it more even
....also broke the roller bearing off of a rocker. It wore the came lope a bit for that particular exhaust valve. I ordered a new rocker thanks to Tim!! I'm just gonna throw the rocker on there and see how it drives. If it bothers me enough I'll look into either some Type S cams or some stage 1. Anyone know if the cam will slide out through the back of the head or do I have to pull the head?

Thanks!! I know I looked through your pictures and though the same thing. I haven't measured my fender to ground yet. I had to run 2 degrees of camber out back to clear the tire and 1.5 up front.
