My Mystic Adventure...

Slowly getting my interior put back together as doing this has not been my top priority over getting all my maintenance up to date.

I recently sourced replacement A/B and C pillars I could use so I got them and finally installed my C-pillars this afternoon.

Installing my C-pillars today made me realize I need to pull my headliner and refinish it so it looks new again. I will be doing this in May when temps are better.

Making progress ahead in the meantime [emoji41]

I just purchased the Turner Triple Baffled Power Steering Reservoir for my ZHP tonight. Pricing for this kit went from the usual $312.99 to $203.44. I could not pass on this so I will be looking forward to taking delivery of this part to install in my ZHP once it arrives :cool

Funny enough I just purchased a Gruppe M intake from vivid racing and just emailed them to see if they are able or interested in sourcing this lip.

What’s the shipping look like? [emoji102]

I’m surprised you’re not going with an Alcantara headliner. I’m debating between that or an oem-like material.

I prefer to keep everything as close to OEM where my interior headliner and pillars are concerned. :)

The c-pillars I recently installed aren't in perfect condition but are much better than the c-pillars that were on my ZHP when I rescued it. I will be sourcing a brand new right rear c-pillar (already have a new never used left rear c-pillar on hand) then once my headliner has been refinished I will be installing my new c-pillars with the refinished headliners.

I began this year with 244,529 miles on the odometer . . . and managed to get a lot done to my ZHP during the 2023 car season.

The following items listed below were completed in 2023:

- Valve Cover Gasket Maintenance
- DINAN coil packs installed
- DINAN carbon fiber engine cover
- Secondary Air Pump System overhaul - (replaced every component)
- Bilstein PSS-10 Coilovers
- Ground Control Camber Kit
- OEM BMW M3 Rear shock mounts
- OEM BMW Sway Bar end links installed
- Carbon Fiber rear diffuser panel
- Repaired wiring and replaced Ambient Temperature Sensor plug
- Front Tie Rod Assembly replacement - (left and right)
- Titanium wheel studs installed
- Rear fenders rolled
- Road Force Balancing of all wheels
- 4 wheel alignment
- New Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 tires (235/35 19F and 255/30 19R) mounted on BBS CH wheels with internal AVIN TPMS sensors installed
- Intake MAF sensor replacement
- Gruppe M air filter and housing cleaning/reconditioning
- Engine Oil change with 0W-30 BMW oil
- Rear Diff Oil change using Synthetic GE rear diff oil
- Fuel Filter change
- Rewired both Tail Light grounds using BMW Tail Light Ground kit
- Power Steering hose replacement - (low pressure side hoses)
- Installed Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2
- C-Pillar replacement
- Installed Rennline iPhone mount w/ magnetic mount charger

Finishing the year with 255,464 miles on my odometer having driven my ZHP 10,935 miles during the 2023 car season. :) I still have more work lined up but not a bad way to end the 2023 car season for me ;)

Looking forward to starting my 2024 car season . . .
