thanks dude, glad you do. I love the e30 m tech kit.. but I been thinking about leaving the diving boards, maybe tucking them in and getting the chrome out on them while leaving it stock looking. We'll see how money is like once i finish the motor and get it running.

bumper tucks are easy and take like 20 minutes lol great "mod" for the investment

euro bumpers would be really hot on her too.

Thanks man, i can't wait my self to get her out of the shop. Its been a good 6months.

I am currently working on my website so everyone can see the whole shabang on one place rather then have tons of threads and info all over. It will be a blog site so people can subscribe, comment and ask questions.
