My dad made some progress while I was out of town this weekend. We got the front bumper on the car.

After that he installed one of the over riders. But it had an issue.

When he tightened the over rider down, it pulled the bolt head through the metal (the one on the right.) So he added a washer and tried that, the bolt an washer pulled through this time. (on left.) We were told these were OEM BMW when we bought them but they were likely knock offs. We got our money back and ordered some from a trusted source, they should be in today.

They looked much nicer than they actually were.

Since we are waiting on those, he went ahead and installed the rear bumper and license plate lights.

Any finally put a coat of paint on the exhaust tip. We have a chrome cover for it on the way and I need to play with the hangers to get it leveled out a little.

Not a ton left to do before we can start shaking it down. Just some little trim bits and some random seals. We should have a license plate for it this week. More to come.
