Bill's various project cars

[illirep]

I'd like to use this project thread to document my 'portfolio' of German beauties. I have historically created new project threads for multiple cars. But it will be easier to have them all in one place.


Below are a link to some of my aforementioned project threads, to have them all easily searchable from this thread (unfortunately most of the old pics are no longer available)

Pictures are only working for the wagon

[BMWCurves]

I think he just used those posts as place holders for now until he can write up info and get pictures of them all.

[BADCLOWN]

Ahhhhhh, didn't think of that

Bumping this old thread. Added details on my ZHP.

Leather cleaning pics. I used svisswax products. First pic is after 1 pass on half of driver seat. You can see quite a difference with minimal effort. The seats were in really good condition, just had normal dirt from 13 years of use.

Second pic and beyond are finished product.

CH-Rs installed. The chrome lip protectors were a bit scratched so I removed them. Need to figure out how to get the adhesive residue off without damaging the lips. By the way, I like the look of them better without the rings, so likely won't buy new ones at $50 each.

Thanks. My black one is on consignment at an exotic dealership - same one that sold my e30 M3 for me.
