This is my DD

Also a little update. I got the correct mirror glass in and install them, also got the correct PDC sensors, but of course they dont fit the stock PDC wire harness. So I ordered the new harness from Tischer. Well long story short it came in yesterday and they sent me the wrong harness, so I just sucked it up and went into the local dealer and paid a little more so I could get the correct one here quicker. I should have it on Monday and put the car back together on Monday night. :fingerscrossed:

Can't wait to see it all put together!

I'm sure yours is daily drivable! My wagon is also my DD and it gets about 3500 miles per month, including at least two trips from LA to SF on I-5 = Bug splatter hell. I don't mind doing it to my basically stock wagon which is parked outside and only gets washed at the $6 drive throughs, but I would never do that to yours. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time to provide proper TLC for my DD.

Well its back together



Now it needs a bath, and then I need to take it in to BMW to have the air bag light reset as the body shop turned the car on when the door panels where off, and I need them to program the car so it stops giving me fog light warnings.
