lookin' good, i like the front seats.

[JesterE34]

so let me ask this....are you replacing the heating controls with the full electronic as seen in (for example) e32?

[Spice Boy]

RallyD - Thanks, the seats are just as comfy as they look

JesterE34 - At the time I had thought the heater controls were the cause for the lack of any blower action but then I found out the blower motor was to blame and it got replaced, Sorry for the confusion!

lol. damn. i was about to ask for a write up. hehe

it's lookin good , the colour is called delphin grey, the same as mine, you've done the same as me with the interior too, i've gone for smoked indicators and rear lights all round and some eyes up front, what wheel's are you going to go for if thats your plan?

[Spice Boy]

Well Ive just ordered a full crystal set up for the car which includes the crystal eye projectors and holes for the runner lights that our American friends use in the front indicators (which I think looks damn cool)

Im aiming to lower her either 40mm all round or 40mm front/30mm rear and get a set of rondell deep dish alloys (type 58 I think?) and eventually get a full re-spray in schwartz metallic

I have a full genuine sports kit from my 520 ready to fit but this is already metallic black so Im gonna wait till just before the re-spray.

There is more but I had an early start and my brain is slowing down! lol.

JesterE34 - Sorry fella lol... but out of curiosity, what electronic heater controls does the E32 have? Im interested in a possible upgrade! I spotted a high trim level E32 in my local breakers so it might have these on board?

Nice progress! Very jealous of your interior, especially the rear headrests. The U.S. didn't get them, unfortunately.

Not sure why you would want to rid the car of that color, I sure wouldn't. I thought that was Arktisgrau but could be Delphingrau. Check the underhood tag to see.

Cheers Denton Im surprised to hear that you guys dont have rear head rests? are the slots there to fit some? you could import some then, Im sure it wouldn't be that painful to the wallet lol

I agree that it is a nice colour but Im a huge lover of black cars, you cant beat a mean looking black car thats been recently polished
