Some more pictures of the driver side front I took care of tonight as well as the interior. Matts and pedals are coming shortly.

what did you use to get the inside of the wheels like that, and what kind of springs are you using...?

Lots of Octoberfest...

Simple green, tide detergent and some 409 all purpose cleaner. A soft scratch pad, if it is new then use it lightly and don't apply it to a polished area unless you know how to polish the scratches back out... finished up the polished areas with a couple applications of Mothers alum polish topped off with a couple of application with Wolfgang seal to the entire wheel.

I believe the springs are Eibachs.

I plan to knock out the rear wheels, brake calipers, and fender wells tomorrow. Thursday will most likely be the day I start on the paint.

Allen, the springs/coilover setup in your is the "JIC" system.

Great job on the clean up btw; when I get time...I plan to hook up with you and Boochok and the gang for a cruise; my time is strapped right now due to rigerous hours of overtime and messing with my kids.

Thanks Val! I know they are JICs but the owner had mentioned the springs wee Eibachs. I had surfed earlier really quick to see about the colors but didn't find anything. What I should have done is check the number on the springs.

Speaking of cuises, I am looking foward to one soon.

Cheers,
Allen

Your probably right, there probably custom spring rates by Eibach; I know Eibach does this alot with there Koni & GC setups.

Over all condition of the paint is fantastic for a 7 year old car.

That said and my plan...

Orange pad with SIP in a few small places
White with 106
Gray with 85rd
Red or Blue with WfGng Seal at low speed just to get it on the paint… will do the crevices by hand though.

Yup, that will get you some great results. I'm heading out to Bristow here in a little to meet a customer dropping off his 91 M5. If your home, I'll swing by and check out the ride
