I stumbled upon this site while researching wood trim finishes. No affiliation, but I found it an inspiring read.

Wow, talk about a car that's been around the block.

Those trispokes are the best E34 wheels
I own mostly junk. Except the Porsche, that's kind of cool.
All the motorcycles are trash which you can read about at

Derrick is a great guy, met him and the car at Vintage 2019 and bought an E34 spoiler from him. The car sounds amazing in person, and the lighting work is to die for. We should all strive to have a car that well put together.

Damn, will have to take some time and go through that with a couple of cups of coffee. Good on that dude.

That's unfortunate. Though I must note the irony (hypocrisy) of Facebook banning somebody for any kind of dishonesty or misrepresentation. The fake sad posts thing in 2014 is just the biggest of many nails in the coffin of why I boycott FB.

Well said - deleted mine in 2013 a(in my early 20's) and don't ever plan on going back.Originally Posted by moroza

to be honest the fb page are where all the good parts are migrating to. serveral m5 bumpers, S3.15 LSDS, and all rare parts are popping up there. here on the classifieds is been looking bone dry for some time. thats why i stay on there

That's a shame - I feel enthusiasts should stick to the forums - but that's just my opinion. I live in the U.K. now so Euro/sport parts tend to be a bit less inflated in price over here.

I feel the same, and we do as a company @ Angry Ass. We are giving up sales on that platform because we neglect it, but fundamentally I do not like how much has transitioned to that shell of a platform. There has gotta be a better way to organize and communicate! I'm worried forums are past their heyday, for some reason. Maybe they just didn't adapt to mobile well enough.
The builder in this thread still has an IG and web presence, btw.
