    Awesome! This will be super helpful. Btw, I see you’re in the Bay Area as well, would you know anyone who’d be willing to let me scan their CSL airbox? Have someone willing to let me scan it if I can bring it over to them. I do have someone willing to let me scan their box already, but I’m not sure when that would be.

      For everyone else, I’ve been working on a mirror switch block off trim piece, need to work out some fit issues, will upload once I’ve gotten it to fit

        Lol looks like we both had the same idea!

          Sway bar reinforcement brackets for use with bigger sway bars or if your mounts are deforming. These are designed to be bonded and riveted in place to prevent corrosion or stress cracking from welding.

          Purchasable via this link at sendcutsend: https://cart.sendcutsend.com/li65gku0oex1 or by taking the DXF or STL attached to your favorite metal shop.

            This little oil cooler clip is broken on most e46s and is never replaced because *each side* is $30. Well, we weren't having any of that so I CADed and printed some FRP (ABS-GF in my case) ones. Here they are, mated to a factory plastic one and mated to themselves. I also included CAD for a beefier version, which I haven't printed yet but it may be less likely to fail, particularly if you're not using fiber reinforced plastic. This should cost you <$1 instead of $30.

                Thanks, I printed these out of some PET-CF I had and they came out great.
