Dj's 1999 M3 Project

[D_Eclipse9916]

I am driving the 7th.

And yeah Scotty I hvaent put in my oil pressure gauge and temp gauge in yet, trying to figure out a clean mouinting solution for them first. It smokes a bit after startup and smells awful for about three days but after that you never smell it again.

Time for another update! Finally got around to swapping trunk lids with another White m3. I tried pulling off the stock spoiler off of mine but the glue they used was really strong so after some weak ass attempts with dental floss+heat, nylon wire + heat I gave up. I simply didnt want to mess up the wing too bad or the trunk.
So then I swapped trunks for a bare trunk. I was going to charge the guy for the wing, but we found a good bit of rust underneath the roundel so I just gave him a straight trade for his non-rusty trunk. (strange theres no rust anywhere else on the car, guess water got caught under the roundel).

Then it was time for big-tastic wing time. I wanted something interim that had low drag while high downforce, the OEM Hi-wing has lots of drag with its downfore and a little research about the PTG wing revealed it produced more downforce, less drag, and was higher up in cleaner air (side bonus its so high you just see under it). So at long last, here is the wing on. And yes Justin, wing pong will be in order at some point.





I also installed my Bimmerworld Race Intake and finishing up fabrication of the headlight duct (its just mocked up in this picture, not bolted, just laying there so fitment will be better).
