* Car has Belgian papers now
* Homologation was done yesterday
* Technical inspection today. Belgium has another stupid rule... A car can only go to the plates of the last registration (which are still in Holland), or on dealer plates. So I had to ask someone else to go to the inspection for me.
* Brakes are here, ready to be installed when the technical inspection is done. I won't be able to outbrake Fart, but it will give me plenty more stopping power than stock.
* Mirrors are already sprayed in white. We'll start with the small parts, like mirrors, bumpers... I have these parts from the other E36, so they can be sprayed, and in the meantime, I can still drive the M3.
I will be back at the ring soon. I'm going to put on my stock exhaust and leave it on until I take my car back to the states. In the mean time, I have an appointment to make in Sweden this weekend.

2008 BMW Z4M Coupe
2007 BMW M6 Coupe--SOLD!
2004 VW Passat W8 4Motion
1993 BMW 318i
2010 335d--on order
Installed the AP 4 piston kit
Installed front and rear strut brace
Installed KW V2 coilovers
All the paper stuff is done. If I call the insurance company tomorrow morning, I can drive. The rear license plate (only the rear one is official in Belgium. The front plate is required, but you can get it wherever you like) is already on.
Next things to do:
* FIND DECENT 17 INCH WHEELS that clear the brakes, and don't hit the coilovers, if possible staggered, and not too expensive.
* remove the cats, and install the SS straight line instead, and replace the rear muffler.
* install steal brake lines for the rear brakes
* spray the car white (some small parts are already sprayed)
* get it stickered
I'll be at the Ring this Sunday, probably the last time in the M5.
