Plans for this Sunday includes swapping over to the ///M front spindles with calipers along with the Z4M FCABs. Changing out the sway bar and reinforcement plate as well.
Hopefully get some tools to push out some of the bushings for the rear subframe while we are at it.

Few good updates over this past week. I was able to source set of AL headlights and also swap in my ZKW lens as well. It would seem to me that my driver side headlight is not adjusting level when I turned it on though. I'm not sure if I connected something in correctly or whatnot. Either way the light output is super amazing compared to the burnt ZKW headlights I had prior. Thank you Joop for the detailed youtube videos on disassembly and Charlie for guidance and photos as well. It was quite a easy swap after watching Joop's video a few times.

Secondly I rewired up my GPS antenna behind the cluster. There is a perfect spot right behind the cluster for any receiving device. I would suggest that spot for anyone interested in adding GPS or Sirius. It doesn't seem to affect the reception to anything.
Third I was able to get my windshield replace with a pilkington with the rain sensor. I'll have to double check to make sure that it's functioning properly and coded correctly.
Day finished after getting windshield replaced.

Haha looking to do this over the weekend and get that m3 front end on the car.
Also does anyone have any clue on retrofitting pdc onto the car? I got the modules and everything. Just unsure about where the wires go on the gong side.
