I almost got reallly excited with that last picture thinking it might of been done.

Still pretty awesome to look forward to the finished product.

I cleaned the sunroof tracking on Saturday (no pictures of that as my phone died before I finished) and removed the side pieces from the sunroof to replace them.


I also cleaned the underside of the sunroof and noticed the edge of the vinyl sheet is peeling up. I'm not quite sure what would be the best thing to adhere it back to the sunroof. I had though about replacing it but I don't see it listed as a part in the diagrams on realoem.com

Worked on cleaning the headliner, sunroof motor cover, and sun roof shuttle last night so I can drop them off at the upholsterer.

Removing the old foam and adhesive from the sunroof shuttle was an absolute nightmare and I still need to clean it with soap and water to be finished

I picked up the headliner bits and drivers seat from the upholsterer yesterday. He did a phenomenal job. I will get some decent pics today while it is light out as it was late when I got home with them. I will also attempt to install the headliner today if someone is home to give me a hand.

Other than that I finally got a set of rear bumper shocks and a passenger window. The window should be going in today and I am just cleaning up the bumper shocks before installing them.

I've also been working on a little side project for the car that I want to keep under wraps until it is completed. It should be pretty neat once done

Accomplished a handful of things this weekend.

Picked up some parts:


Friday I got the headliner trimmed and installed:



Saturday I finished getting it fitting correctly and I installed a new gas cap hanger and stop buffer on my gas door:



I then glued down the separating vinyl on the sunroof and threw on the new side covers:



Once dried it holds strong now:



I also finished cleaning my sunroof tracks and threw in the new fabric shuttle rails:





Yesterday I installed my new to me passenger window, replaced the sliders on the drivers window that I neglected when I installed it, and installed the fabric shuttle:



I would have put in the sunroof as well but I couldn't find the white lithium grease to lubricate the tracks first. I will pick some up today and get that done

Seats! They kind of remind me of the "rain" type cloth interior that is so rare for the e36 m3's.

x2

But we do have to say the attention to detail for every little screw and bolt and surface in the car is pretty awesome, and worth the wait IMO.

They are looping 2 out of a special High Sport package compact. Less than 100 sets made, 1997 only, and only in Dakar yellow. Kitty and I happened across them and couldn't say no=)
