I really like the look of the Roiform for the price.  Call me crazy but I like the BLQ from them as well.  Hit me up when you're ready and I can get some prices for you!

I was told it looks cool

Only if I get to yell "Hey Guys!"

Perfect ride height!

H&R sport springs installed. I think the car rides very similar to stock, very happy with the way it came out.
Window tint is up next.

Looks killer!

You guys are experts. I want to throw my car away after visiting this thread

Learning is fun

Thanks to Speedy Metals I got some 1.5" x 2.5" x .188" wall rectangular tubing, which just so happened to be the perfect size for spacing my motor mounts back up after having lowered the subframe!
I set it in place, guessed a location for the motor mount stud, drilled a hole for that, installed it back in the chassis and marked for the lower hole. Put a bolt through the tubing then tightened both things up. 
 
 

I did take them back out and paint them, but they look like someone just threw rectangular tubing in as a spacer. 

With the motor back on its own feet I installed the new injectors. 
The BMW manual said to torque them to ~30 ft lbs but that didn't seem like anywhere near enough. Consulted a VW friend who has a diesel with similar injection setup and their manual says 50 ft lbs, which is much more comfortable. So those are in.

I also got to pick this beauty up yesterday! 

I'm hoping to have enough time this Friday to get that installed and see if I cant get the motor running once again! 

Gotta play the content game if you want to succeed. You have to give someone a reason to click if you want them to even think about watching your video. With how many people are in the YouTube realm now and with how much content there is out there, you have to do what you have do. Pretty much all content creator driven channels do it, even the big ones. With only one platform with that has the user base (YouTube), you have to play the game and the cards that are given to you. If you make good content, everything else falls by the wayside as you grow a following, including clickbait titles.

the best thing about this is the rubber liner around the hood cut out

Boy oh boy does this feel good to say! 

I ordered a fuel pump! 

I called the local shop to ask about the part number difference and was told it is just an updated number, they are updated parts, and the testing specs are the same. 
The new pump delivers 1cc fuel less than the old one in stock config, but when you're looking at 40cc injection there is a tiny percentage difference there. 

The new pump is already rebuilt and ready to go! 

Knew this was gonna be a clean example as soon as I saw the location.
Love the steering wheel.

Took advantage of the good weather today.
Bumper reflectors installed (that wheel gap loooool)

Rear debadged. Not pictured, replaced license plate frame with solid black one

Spacers and extended lugs installed. 12mm front 17mm rear. Ordered 12 and 15mm spacers, company tells me they actually don't have 15 but can send 17's. I ask them to cancel the order, they say they can't because they've already shipped the order...with the size that I didn't order. They told me they would pay return shipping if they didn't fit, still just a shady practice. I guess that's what you get with some eBay sellers. They fit fine though.

After: 
 
Picked up the harbor freight aluminum low profile jack and an impact wrench today.
Can not wait to get the springs installed, think its really going to pull the car together by getting rid of some that heinous wheel gap.
Trying to find a time to have the windows tinted as well.

Glad to see this has caught on

Damn, that's how you write an ad.

Washed the car for the first time, drove it home in snow/ice storm so I haven't seen it clean since buying it. Forgot how good this color looks when its clean.
Spacers and extended lugs ordered.
Smoked bumper reflectors also ordered.
Gonna start shopping around for getting the windows tinted.

 

New to the Wisconsin forum, looking forward to taking her out of storage at the end of the month.
