I think the spoiler says I need to drill some holes in the hatch. When the painting is done, my motivation level may peak again. The only way this stuff is going on soon, is in my brothers warm garage. | maybe you want to see what it's like after you put the lip on before you put in the lowering caps just to see whether you for sure want to lower it. just a thought. yeah, i hear ya on the warm garage. luckily it still gets to the 50s/60s here in denver. i have a lot of work to do yet. gotta get all these new parts installed. need to get another helicoil kit and some more parts too. think i may redo much of the power steering system along with all the other stuff i'm doing. hopefully steven can find a suitable articles tool so i can start putting some up. i'd be interested to here your impressions on the 24-bit/192kHz upgrade (along with power supply and balanced outputs if you're getting those) to the DA-10. i'll probably still go for something like the meridian G08 cd-player but it would be interesting to hear the gains you get from the mods. right now, i'm looking at a tuner for the gf (she wants to listen to some radio shows). she wants a cheap one, but i just can't do that to my audio system, if you know what i mean. i wish she didn't care about am, there's a nice fanfare F1 on audiogon. oh well ... __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles
