Hi - thanks, it's from my 9411/0 (you haven't been paying much attention have you!? ) I think it looks pretty sweet

Why have you put the others away? 1680 looks great, Bro

Karl, looks like you're going to need to find a super faded insert for your red so that you can put that insert back on the 9411/0.

Ha - no, I'm happy with the original black and faded FF inserts I already have for the 1680! Plus, I can always 'borrow' this one every once in a while from the 'Flake'

That poor wheel has been in 19 of my daily drivers over the yrs starting with my first 81' civic hatch back with no bumpers. It is currently in a 95' 325i that I have done a bit to. Its ugly but fun to drive on these mountain RSS.

Nice.
When I completely lost my mind I switched from German cars to English and Italian cars. I've never recovered.

(laughing) Don't fret, I can't afford them half the time either. The initial purchase price of the car is just the initiation fee. Once you pay that then the real expense (maintenance) starts.

Lucky me I used to build engines and have certs from several companies so i do all my own maintenance. It's the parts I have to worry about
