you can raise the engine mounts for 5-6 cm, i'd do it on your ride height.

I'm liking what Will has done so far. It's going to great having an engine bay that's as sweet as the rest of the car. 8)

I've got a few photos but as it's not my car I think it would be wrong to share them. What I will say though, is that it doesn't disappoint. :D

Trying to get my head round starting my next write up but don't know where to start lol !

So as you all know there was two massive shows this weekend which I had planed to get the car ready for,didnt think it would happen but it all came good in the end, was touch & go for a minute even picking the car up from John's (Bespoke Leathering) at 10pm Friday night.

One from Players on Saturday. 8)

Image

And one from DC13 on Sunday. 8)

Image

Full write up will be added in the next week to 10 days but for now here are the two main highlights.

Full engine bay smooth,clean & paint by Rally Prep.

Image

Full interior retrim in cord & vinyl by Bespoke Leathering.

Image

Even though I wasn't sure about doing two shows in one weekend & covering nearly around 550 miles in the e21 in its first real outing it was worth it in the end.

Came in the top 25 on Saturday & 2nd place yesterday in the other Bmw section.

Image

Thanks to everyone that I spoke over the weekend for all your positive comments. :D

What a great weekend to start off the show season. :thumbsup

Interior looks class. Not keen on wooden steering wheels but works well with the cloth inserts.

Very nice man. :smoke
