maxed out the front coils, waiting on the springs to settle a bit more
more low they said, it'll be fun they said
too much poke, shredding tire at every turn and every slight road imperfection
alignment needed badly

Bought front brake pads. Going to change it tommorow morning in the street like a true broke ass would. I've never changed my brakes before but I've tried twice and gave up after stripping the nuts. But today I'm seriously determined to do it right this time. The shimming is driving me crazy!

Struggled with my weapon R PS reservoir for like 4 hours. Eventually I gave up, painted the OEM one black and called it a day.

Will have to fabricate a bracket and partially modify the Weapon R before I attempt again.

Good luck! Just be careful eh, I had my car raised on the curb finishing an oil change and my neighbour almost ran over my leg

Replaced all the bulbs in my gauge cluster. What a fucking hassle. I should have taken my steering wheel off, but managed without. Although not without some hand cramps.
Took out my sunfaded parcel shelf and resprayed it black with duplicolour black fabric spray.

After

Installed. Holy fuck what a hassle again haha. Had to remove C pillar trim, side panels and seat bolsters.

I recall taking out my gauge cluster on the E36 M3 to replace some bulbs as well.

Yes, it was a pain in the ass and felt that it would have been easier to take off the steering wheel. But after a second and third time, it was much easier. Practice makes perfect.
