The leak you had in your drivers side footwell, did you manage to find where it was coming from?

No not yet the windows arnt back in yet, as soon as they are I'm gonna get the hose on the car and see if I can find it. I haven't put the carpets back in yet

iv got the same problem, iv got a leak on both sides, a small trickle of water comes through the speakers and under the dash, but only when it rains hard. I posted a thread about on here and the solution seemed to be that the dash had to be taken out. So before you fit your dash back in i suggest you get that leak sorted. And when you find it let me know

I'll have a look into it I think my leak is from the rear window and it puddle was in the rear footwell

What's the law on no wing mirrors,and is it hard to drive? Haha nice progress

I'm not sure, but that little round one looks criminal.

I think it's too old a style for an e21. I've got one on my 02 though. (just my opinion obviously)

Hi James,

Looking good - did you reattach the front mud flaps? If not and you still have them & what will you take for them?

Ta, Simon.

Hi everyone it's been a very long time! It's just about all back together. I had to stop the build for various reasons.
I'm putting the mud flaps back on, sorry mate.

I'm looking for a rear exhaust mouth if anyone is selling one.
