Took off the sunroof glass. Left the car outside for a couple days in 90 degree weather and the weatherstripping around the glass melted in one area. will be replacing it with a new one finally.... wax built up on the old one is an eye sore too. also took of the sunshade to inspect the clips and thank god they're all ok. Will also be doing the rear 1/4 glass weatherstripping too. these cars are just getting too old and all the plastic parts are starting to fall apart. mine has been garaged all day long in the past 6 years but I think super hot summers and ice cold winters are taking their toll. time to refresh a lot of these while OE parts are still available.

Swapped out the passenger door lock actuator. It wasn’t so bad but still sucked to do. Bought a new pressure washer to clean it, old one bit the dust.Comment

Refused to spend money on stamped steel parts that shouldn't cost almost $300 to replace:

Headlight lens refresh!
Previous owner installed some sketchy angel eyes which resulted in some infiltration on the driver side light where the gasket was worn quite badly. Fresh gaskets, lenses, and top trim pieces look so much better. Crossed this project off my list after 6 years!Attached FilesE46 M3 Coupe - 09/04 Production, 103k miles, Black/Black, 6MT swap, AS 0% kit, BBS RG-R + AS4’s, CSL flash, Karbonius airbox, Euro header + Section 1, Koni Yellow, Xtrons, SAP Delete, lockdowns completeComment

Received airbox and some other parts today. Have to find time to install. Wife wants toilet paper hanger fixed first so I guess I can’t stall on that any longer.Comment
