For those that have not seen the past postings?I bought a 2006 530I with 8002 miles on it. The repairs continue to move on at a decent pace. I have bought all of the needed parts and figure a week or so and the car will be done. Until then I will continue to lurk and plan the mods.

It's coming along nicely. The major parts are one and the trim work is being completed. The bodyshop is verrry slow. But, there prices make it worth the wait. I'll post a photo of the car when it's complete.
pics during the project would be great!
