    Removed several handfuls of broken glass from inside driver's door (prior break-in). Rinsed out inside of each door shell, cleared drains of debris, and then sprayed with HHS-K to prevent rust.

    Had to have that dreaded "seat twist" with new cable and added spacers instead of going with wider tires. 235/18 front with 12mm and 265/18 rear with 15mm, but on body shop widened
    rear fenders.

    Yes, I pick up my 540i on Mon. and will take a pic. It looks stock, but beefier. I know some go with wider tires but I went with the tire shop's recommendation (Diamond Tire-San Rafael).

    Vibrant 1141 resonator and a eBay DTM style muffler. 2.5" from pre o2 sensor back. Only 2k drone is when accelerating over half throttle. It has a lot of bass down low though

    electric fan wasn't coming on, so I check wire continuity to the relay box. It was fine. And the fan was replaced a couple years ago. Turns out the ground pin on the fan plug wasn't making good contact. Fiddled with it and was able to get a reliable connection. Feel much better about the upcoming road trip to the Dallas area.
    Refilled washer bottle, and replaced a burned out marker light.
    Good day! Happy 4th America!

    Gave her a nice wash inside and out... Have Broadway Static coilovers on the way so work like my rr window regulator and a couple bulbs will have to wait until I'm done putting on my stance pants.

    Broadway static has coils for the e34 ^? I know their e28 & e36 coils are amazing but expensive. Let us know about them for the e34 platform pleeease!

    Went for a job at Sytner and then blocked the exit on the way out as my car was about to overheat. Good times!

    ^^ Looks great! Even though mine looks like the Gaza strip right meow, I do love the look of a clean bay.

    I started the 540 for the first time in a month. Fired right up! After the last round of work on it, it has no leaks or CELs, and temp needle stays where it should. Love it

    Changed the valve cover gasket and new dogbones which cured the annoying clunking noise in the rear. Previous was karlyn brand and lasted only 2 yrs. This time lem was used.
