    Hmm, I went to the junkyard last week and saw some brilliant black e32 front seats. How does one move the seat forward enough to access the reverse torx bolt if there's no battery in the car? Any manual mechanism?

    All the plastic bits will accept paint well if you prep 'em good. Go to an autobody supply and inquire. Marhide was a brand I used eons ago that worked well.

    Improperly applied to an external Torx could perhaps be the only good use for a twelve point socket.

    I know it's totally OT, but the thread title dredged up the memory...

    I once proved that it was possible to fit 5 people in a DeLorean (and then drive 30 miles).

    Ahhh.. the days of my youth.
