My trunk lid has always stayed up only in the full-up position. Once when all of the tools were in it, the lid wanted to close quite fast unless it was in that full-up position.
What did you do to your E9 today?

@Drew Gregg, That sound awful!
When I pop open my trunk, it lifts a few inches then settles back to a little more than an inch. There's not enough torsion spring tension to open it partially & have it stay. It's either closed, open inch or fully opened.

Same here
last year I had the same incident, the lid came back and cut my right temple (bloody hell).
I remember, there is something which can be adjusted, I think it is the final open position. I adjusted it so, that it is more open (more upright) and this way it holds the end position better.

looks great! Limited slip? Are you replacing the clutch packs?

It´s not an LS...
Would love to see pics of the surgery
I removed my fingerprints.
Yep I sanded off my own finger prints.
I spent hours sanding down the paint in the rain trough below the windscreen by hand .
I thought my fingers felt a bit tingly towards the end alright.
I was stripping the engine bay to get it ready for a few coats of etch primer.
After finishing up for the evening I noticed that my fingers were very very smooth.
Then I could not get into my phone …, It couldn’t recognise my print , I’d sanded it flat .

Is that an early Euro e24 in front of your coupe?
Omess, yes it is an E24, US specification 1987. A “practice” restoration before the 3.0cs.
I have no love for the E24. It is for sale, find a buyer! Lots of photographs available.
Many polished nuts like the 3.0 cs.I’d love to see it go to a good owner.

Pictures of the surgery are in the "heartbreak" thread: https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/heartbreak-broken-rear-shock-mount.18208/post-376731
Fingerprints are good when you're unlocking your phone, bad when committing burglaries. I say look on the bright side and go on a crime spree! Who among us hasn't dreamt of being a safe cracker or a cat burglar?I removed my fingerprints.

P.S. I hope they grow back soon. (Is that how it even works?)

I’d let you park in one of those charging station spots at the grocery store.
