The Clown is Back: Progress thread

Dropped my newly refinished (yet again) BBS wheels off to my Indy today. Picked up parts boxes and the old parts tonight as well.

He was doing an M3 subframe reinforcement tonight but is dedicating tomorrow to finishing my car.

- BMWP bbk install in the front
- paint rear calipers black
- install wheels and check clearance
- set ride height after installing rear spring cups (weren't included in Coilovers I purchased)


I have an appointment at the BMW Store of Cincinnati Monday at 1:45pm for an alignment. My Indy lives right around the corner from the dealer so I'll be going straight there after picking it up Monday. Get the car back to the house and do a thorough detail the rest of the day/evening as the car is a mess (I feel embarrassed taking it to BMW Monday as it sits but it's not worth it to pick it up Sunday drive it all the way back to KY then go back to cinci Monday.

Looking great!

Heading to BMW today at 1:45 for an alignment then bringing her home for a clay and wax detail. Super pumped and nervous to see it.

I'm still waiting on pics :P

It blew me away.

I'm driving home after the alignment and doing a full detail on it. Pics to follow.

Awesome stuff brotha, where did you purchase the bmwp bbk?

The alignment took damn near 3 hours so by the time I got the car back, did another few brake pad set ins, fought cinci traffic, and stopped over at a friends to show him I was in no mood for a full detail. I washed the car and threw some tire shine on. Brakes feel great and the car rides the same as well. Super stoked on how it looks, it's really sinister as hell.
