    Is There an Update on Hood Shocks?

    Thank you for posting the link, Bo. I don't recall but now it's here. Once the car is running I will revisit the hood supports. It only came up as I was discussing torsion bars with Bob and saw this post. Allen, thanks for sharing the picture. I trust my explanation for posting, i.e., in case...

    Is There an Update on Hood Shocks?

    Hi Allen, if Bob made a selection and/or if someone else listed recommended sizes and vendors, it's just easier for future queries. Thank you for stating size (19") and posting your image of a passenger side mount. Similarly, to Scott's point, if Doug or someone else has detailed pictures (both...

    Is There an Update on Hood Shocks?

    Bob, which hood support did you decide on or will you back OEM with the torsion bar? We had discussed/cautioned but I went to take another look at orientation and fitment in case you opted to return to OEM (and for ease of search for future persons, the embedded link). I noticed a mark on my...

    Is There an Update on Hood Shocks?

    Do a search on the o2FAQ for "torsion bar." They have many posts on installing, tightening, etc. I referred to these posts when I reinstalled mine but also had an extra set of hands. This link speaks to positioning, i.e., identifying top/bottom, left/right. Hope this is helpful...

    Harper's Bazaar January 2020

    Thank you, Ajay. There are many really nice e9s in the NY tri state area, some of the owners are active on this forum. Sidebar, I chuckled at the video when I saw the metal shining in the door frame as bright as the North Star and wondered how long it would take for someone to point it out...

    Harper's Bazaar January 2020

    Thank you guys. @Markos agreed re number of shots that made it to "print." Nice exposure for our e9s. The photographer was digging the car and the style editor felt it complemented most of the ensembles they selected so it became central to the shoot. It doesn't hurt that they were shooting for...

    Harper's Bazaar January 2020

    I posted in the summer of 2019 that my polaris e9 was used in a fashion shoot with Georgia Fowler in Brooklyn, NY. It was published for Jan. 2020 in Harper's Bazaar Turkey. My o2 was used a month later for Madewell with another prominent Kiwi. Unfortunately, no images are available. Both...

    Console side vent covers (2002 related)

    Thank you, @aearch for reaching out and sharing the file. George (@nyccsi) the e3 vent is shorter and would probably work better. Thank you for the recommendation and assist.

    Console side vent covers (2002 related)

    Good day all. If anyone (@Markos) has the file for the console vent covers available and can email it to me, please PM. Went through all the postings and I see that it's no longer publicly available due to BMWs cease and desist action. It's cold in the Northeast and I'm tied to a chair for the...

    FS: Repro (Metal) Sun Visor Pivot Mounts

    Thank you for making this happen. I am interested in one set in brass. However, if the group goes with aluminum, I'm in for that.

    Sheet Metal Floor Plugs & CV Joint Boots for Rebuild

    Yes, please add me to the list @sfdon. I will confirm via PM if it's two or four needed. Are both the front and rear the same size? Thank you.

    M30B34 FI harness question...

    Life called and after months of no significant attention to the FI harness I've returned to it. Unfortunately, I've read one to many B35 conversion posts on this forum and am now confused despite past assistance from @sfdon and @HB Chris specifically on this concern. Although this swap is not...

    Share your ....inspiring interiors

    Love the matte finish of your wood. I wanted the same treatment but Madera advised on a gloss finish to better show the grain of the woodwork. Here are mine. The grey interior was completed in 2005/6 but interior still not installed as car is not finished and still in and out of cabin doing...

    LS mirror is loose

    Be careful when tightening that screw. The lock/cage with nut behind it could fail and/or the metal on the door skin could get compromised. It was either on this forum or the o2FAQ where someone posted that they drilled two holes into and put a band of sheet metal (e.g., 1/2" x 5") on the...

    What did you do to your E9 today?

    Thank you, Ajay. I tried not to interfere but at one point I asked if the picture wouldn't look better with symmetry, i.e., all four windows open vs three. They shrugged it off; I'm guessing because a lot of interior shots were taken and the model had to rest her head. They didn't want it to...

    What did you do to your E9 today?

    Let the car out for a photo shoot for Harper's Bazaar and managed to get a few decent shots with the Manhattan skyline in the background.
