I'll try to take as many pics as we go. We're taking the following off the trailer wrecker:

M3 control arms
H&R Springs
Bilstein shocks
header and full exhaust
M3 tranny
M3 motor
radiator
ecu

We already sold the Recaro seats and roll cage that was in the car. The sound system is being parted out too, which consists of TV, CD/DVD head unit/changer, 6 JVS speaker system

His car is bone stock down to the tape deck. The car is pure mint, showroom quality. Even the trunk is mint. Glove box has all original manuals. The engine and auto tranny are coming out and the new M3 eninge, tranny, and suspension components are going in. We're not touching the cosmetics of the car except a small decal on the drivers rear door window, Respect Your Elders with the BMW logo . The engine puts down about 350 to the wheels and is aggressively cammed. Sounds like a beater at idle but will make the car the ultimate sleeper.

i love the sight of lobster pot bouys in the summer when running to the canyons make for a fun quick stop for mahi mahi!

Quick question do you like getting in and out of the truck without running boards better? i want to take mine off but dont want to ruin my leather sliding in and out.
