I have my spreadsheet filled out of next steps. As funds come available modifications will occur. Meanwhile those parts I do have will be getting attention and refurb work.

Next on the list, space heater for the garage.

BBS are now sold and shipped.

Next steps are test fitting wheels this weekend and ordering adapters. Then picking up a space heater and sending the X5s off for media blasting.

dude. wife will never be happy, unless you shift your car $ into diamonds $.

that's all she's unhappy about.

just build the car and go fast with her in the passenger seat. that's all we can do to hopefully make them understand.

Scooped up some center caps for the Style 63 wheels:



Have the Strut bar pending sale as well to procure more money to refinish the wheels.

Need to sell these other extra parts i have laying around at some point...AWP Intake and valve cover, all red jetta tails all for you to mod yourself while yours are still on your Daily driver. Make offers to help me continue this build



Anywho, this sums up my mentality today:
