trunk finished...ez liner...sunroof

few random pics...



Here I started experimenting with vinyl&fabric paint on one of the front speaker grill


Also did 1 backseat floor pan with EZliner you can see the difference this will give it a nice strong surface to finish it off took 1 full can.


I finished the trunk and changed the lock (using my old trunk lock from rusty now RIP) cleaned the inside of the rubber weatherstrip and re-installed.







The sunroof was broken so I removed it as it was rusted solid lucky for me the E30's roof was not



LOTS and LOTS more work ahead hope to be done next summer...

Rear bumper removal..

off


The floors and trunk are fully cure after a few days the paint is hard as nails with a high build Zinc primer as a base to the Enamel paint (Tremclad Rust paint) it should hold off moisture and rust for a few years...

Now I'm attacking the bumpers....finished removing the pain in the Ass rear bumper shocks


now I just need to remove the paint reprime and install the plastic bumpers so I can then mount the rear Reiger bumper



then the front bumper removal so I can install the plastic bumper to compliment the very rare "IS" front valence




Today I also found the rims am going to buy ESM basquet weavers 16x7.5 fronts and 16x9 rears




But before I have to attack the wheel wells rust removal and install my new Cadium coated cross drilled brakes and new pads on all 4 wheels
