Nice looking trailer. I'm excited to see that bimmer!
What do you think of getting the bilstein 5100s instead of a spacer?

Yeah if I had to do it over again I'd get the Bilsteins instead. At the time I didn't want to deal with bringing the struts to the shop to have them use their spring press.

I was already jealous of the truck and now I'm gonna be jealous of the bimmer. I picked up a 93 e36 last week and can't wait to get it going but I'm looking to get it back to stock. No chance I could afford the me swap. Post pics of that too man.

Meant to ask you what did you do with your Rockstar Rim Hubcaps? Did you not like the appearance of them, or was it simply you were serious about the murdered out look?

I got the tow mirrors from Tasca on the forum's vendor section. Can't find a better price.

I took the center caps of my wheels because I was sick of the Star and it would chip offroading (painted black). I like the better now...just need to undercoat the hubs so they match the wheels

Side note, with the AALs and 2" front level, the truck sat perfectly level with the car on the trailer. I would have liked to have it sit a tad further back on the trailer but when it's midnight and you're loading a car that doesn't really steer, I was happy to get her on there period. That trailer aint light either, it's built heavy underneath with pretty thick steel boxing.
