Moving along at the paint shop.
Just went to drop off a set of new tires to be mounted on the refreshed Hamann rims.
As can be seen the repair of the Vorsteiner hood was a success - was tricky to do. No sign of the cracks.
Also got a new expansion tank for the radiator - the old one was getting yellow. Engine bay will of course be refreshed also....
And finally got the drivers seat from the upholsterer, he did a super job of fixing a tear and reconditioning the leather.
So it´s getting closer although I´m not rushing the guys at the shop at all. Told them to take their time and do it properly.....

E39 M5's will never get old. The hood looks great.

Sick! Love the intercooler setup.
Better not take any chances that heavy hood will close by itself

Very nice! I had that front and rear BBK on my E39 touring and loved it!
A much as I like Hamann wheels (and I use to own PPG2's) maybe time to get some lighter wheels? Just saying.

Slowest respray in history continues
Need to source another trunk lip spoiler, the one I purchased didn´t fit properly. Also need to have the new license plates remade - cannot handle the letters not being centered!
