One terrible issue with having (completely) repainted !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is that all original labels are removed. If you do it correct that is of course. So after painting it looked empty like this:

I did get some labels from a guy in Germany but recently I found some guy in Colombia that made 'm all, even the ones from third party-companies. Yesterday I got my order:

Man, where do I put 'm all. Luckily I've made pictures when Edwin did his 2002 Alpina Projekt so that's a start:

Now only thing that's missing is the VIN-plate. And what to do with that? The car is actually a 2000 touring but after the facelift the touring also went to be a 2002. And my car will look like a post-facelift with a tii-engine. So I probably will get one of these:

Not authentic but that's what my car won't be anyway. At least it looks authentic using this one...

I'm not a BMW guy. They don't really do anything for me.

That being said I am loving seeing this come together.

all I want in life is a car with in inka sticker on in the engine bay. Preferably an E3 3.0s with a 4 speed.

God: If you are listening I have been a good boy this year. And I will leave you cookies by the chimney, and help you hide easter eggs next year if you grant me my wish. PUH-leeeese

You need it. And deserved it! Not sure if God accepts cookies though, that's more a currency EL_ULY accepts.

See, the older the sticker, the more useful it is.

Rather than LICHT AUS! (Xenon HID voltage warning) or the "You must discard old aluminum bolts and replace with new aluminum bolts upon any disassembly" sticker.
