    are you a fan of the headlights? cars looking good tho. i think you should eventually get 18s so you can look low and not have your trans pan dragging 24/7

    I agree. I do like how the 18's fill the car out. However I am in love with the way the car sits at the moment...but it is silly.

    I never liked the headlights, still don't. As soon as I find a good local deal on a set of OEM facelift projectors they will be replacing the "angel eyes".

    Honestly now I am just going to enjoy the car (as best as I can). I like how it looks, how it sounds (), and honestly the tip has grown on me...though I will always want a manual more. The body work is still getting done, as soon as I get the word the car will be going in.

    Would frenching the high beam reflectors and tinting the corner lights amber look too BMW-like?

    Definitely

    Hopefully the car is "done" for H2O.

    Stouph79B5 going to try and finish the headliner tonight and hopefully tomorrow it'll be back together.

    I need to do a bunch of small maintence things to the car asap so there probably wont be many updates after this until paint.

    Still can't wait to get that done with. Is it weird that the black mirrors piss me off more then the dent?

    Oh god no.

    Gave up with the suede, dropped the headliner off at a local upholstery place today, should be done next week.

    Paint should hopefully be done within the next couple of weeks.

    Its not all bad with a Triptronic Matt. Think of how much nicer it is not having to constantly pump the clutch in TO Traffic. The only downside to Trip is the inability to launch it properly, but other than that, give me a Trip any day of the week.

    Matt, only you could make a Dent like that into a work of art

    My Mirrors are black too, but it doesn't bother me..... Oh wait the whole car is....

    We really need to get a B5 Battalion Cruise/Shoot in this year, only problem is your now a member too, so who's gonna take the pics

    True enough about the cruise.

    I honestly don't mind the tip. Of course I would prefer a 5 speed, but the tip is relaxing...not now, because it's currently broken (new shifter box next week, hopefully tighten everything up nice), but when it does work it's nice.

    Update, headliner came back today, I will update with photos when I have everything in and finished. Also, finnnally replaced the headlights!

    Next year I hope to do a lot more of what went down Sunday night (shoot with Nick and Bobby, and the Shoot with Brian from IvyLeague and that Mini). Really enjoy the "private" shoots...so I hope to do a lot more of that next year for most of the weekend.
