Hard pass.

That might be a coupe thing too. Since the compact has framed windows I've never had an issue removing the guide and reinstalling without marking anything. 
That is one big thing people do not seem to know when they do the handles. That's soley what that hole in the door is for haha

Luckily they're super easy to change in compacts/sedans versus coupes/verts. You have to remove the window and rear window guide and you'll have all the room you could need. Removing and reattaching the linkage to the door latch is worst part about it. If you pull the handle and it either gets hung up or doesn't pop the door at all, your handle snapped and needs to be fully replaced. The other thing that sucks is that they did not use the same style for handles throughout e36 production. I've encountered three different ones so you will want to remove yours to at least see exactly what you have before going and searching for a replacement. There are plenty of part outs for a used one to be had=)

🤣 texted you

Didnt you kill an n54 already? 

FYI those reading in future these ended up selling (at just below my asking price to account for fix).  It was full disclosure buyer knew everything and needed the set for their project.  They needed it when I was selling, right place right time right price everybody’s happy

MOMster truck is sold!! The buyer reposted it the same day trying to part it out. LOL

Bumper is all trimmed up where it needs to be and mounted nicely. Not a whole lot of progress lately, slowly but surely.

In case you have all forgotten the Brewers played at a stadium that did not have a beer name for 30 years... County Stadium anyone?  From what I've heard MillerCoors didn't want another long term deal so AmFam stepped up.  I don't understand the hate though, AmFam is a Wisconsin based company that's looking to build more offices in Milwaukee and invests heavily back into Wisconsin communities along with being the 17th largest employer in the state.  MillerCoors moved headquarters out of Wisconsin, isn't even a top 100 employer in Wisconsin, cut jobs in 2018 and has shifted community focus outside of Wisconsin. 
Nostalgia is a dangerous emotion if not kept in check with facts so someone please let me know if I've said anything incorrect.
 

I've seen that car in person. Knew right away something happened in the rear because the back bumper just doesn't look right

Minor updates and improvements for daily life!
There was no place to keep a pair of sunglasses, so I added a euro-market glasses holder that replaces the oh sh!t handle on the driver's side

 
Added some front and rear OEM rubber floor mats to keep the salt out of the carpets

 
And I also realized it was missing some fairly critical badging so I got that sorted too

 

I was talking with some friends about that last night. I think that will forever stay a shell and be a collectors item which really isn't a bad thing. It's really neat

Im not going to tell you that @rampelsauce was your secret santa. Instead, I want to wish you a happy new year!

No package waiting for me when I arrived home from Florida. I believe my secret Santa may have stated in here that there may be a delay

Looks like I have an answer. Tj also has a spare tank in his parts car that I am going to grab when i get the sub frame. As much as I wanted to mount a tank on the roof, I value that space for parts that fall off, extra wheels, and eventually a couch for @Earl to sit on while I do a burnout.

i've been driving e30s for over a decade and when I drive mine I still grin like a fricken teenager who's just touched his first pair of boobs.
i wish my second car could also be an e30.
if you could snort e30s, I would.
long live e30s.
