I bought my 8 a little over a year ago.
I've got a handful of pictures from past projects.
I started replacing parts back in June of 2016, somewhere around 75,000 miles. Some replacements, some minor upgrades.

The first venture into the car was replacing the old radiator.

Second, new Koni Yellows and lowing springs.

On to my first attempt at removing the old, yellow sun damaged clear coat from the headlights.

Thought that was a fairly good for a first attempt.


Then rotors and pads.

I even got to experience breaking a philips impact bit off into the screw that attaches rotor to hub.

I think that was you pulling out of the lot at Woodward as I was pulling in with my 8. Like that color it looks good in the sunlight.
