So good to see it finally taking shape. The attention to detail on this car is very impressive. Bet you can't wait to see the finished thing...

The paint is geeting closer to finished as you can see.
Here's some from the last few weeks at SRC.
The rear brace has returned from the polisher.
Shane says it way better then in the pics.

I added some pics of an M3 that's on the DPE web sie that has an interior the same as I'll do the ute in.
The seats will be in all red....not sure of the harness colour if I'll do matching red or contrasting black.
I the door inserts will also be in red like the pics.
The dash in black alcantera and maybe the top of the doors as well.

A,
Are you going to do the Alcantara dash like in the M3...

Project is shaping up! Great progress...

Are the door jambs inside still blue?

Looking good...

BTW, this doesn't look like an M3 with the RPM meter ending at...7K RPM. It must be a diesel or gas E46. The black instrument cluster is another give-away.
