complete brake overhaul complete. now running drilled zimmermanns, akebono euro pads, Stoptech SS brake lines. Changed out my diff fluid while I was there (the old fluid was golden! I did not see anywhere in the records that it was changed, but I guess it was!)
Tried to readjust my parking brake and that was a failure; gonna go back and try again
I used the bmw scanner cable to OBDII port inside the car. Friends E39 is the last year made, 2003. I could easily just uncheck and check off cold warm warnings for the lights so if he got LED it would be no problem.Quote:

More to come eventually I’m sure, let me know what y’all think!
In order of the photos:
1) clear front corner, side marker, and rear lights
2) blackout grill
3) black vinyl wrap on the roof trim due to peeling clear coat
4) Dinan stage 3 with koni yellows: Dinan intake, throttle body, strut bar, exhaust with rear resonator delete, stage 3 tune
5) e9x mirror with compass, garage opener, and auto dim
6) dynavin n6 headunit with iPhone cord routed to under the arm rest
7) sprint booster wired into an m3 sport button
8) aluminum pedals and m3 dead pedal

^ That's a great list of mods. Good work! I just added a Pedalbox so I'm really jealous of the M3 sport button mod!
Thanks! The sport button mod was a fun little project. I used the diy on either here or e46fanatics. There were some tiny little wires to solder on but it was worth it, I like the oem lookQuote:

The hoses were original to the car. Condition looks like 123k. Overflow tank was extremely brittle. Leaving the radiator for now.
Still basic type items
Back on the summer tires as of yesterday. I'm hoping it's safe to say we won't have any more snow. Unfortunately I found a bit more rust isues.

Yesterday: oil change with Rotella T6 5W-40 and gave it a quick bath afterwards.
Washed him (and the entire stable) and installed the ///M3 strut bar I bought from ///M Crazy. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d781746e36.jpg

I started up my "garage queen" for the first time in a few weeks today and pulled her out of the garage... first time I had all three kids out at the same time ;)
