3. Get the brakes where I want them - 335i brakes on all 4 corners.
4. Modest power bump - 3 stage intake and 130i tune.
5. Fix bumper scrapes, teach myself how to blend paint.
6. Seats! The base E82 seats leave much to be desired, especially coming from E46 M3 seats.
7. Minor annoyances... repair worn interior trim, retrofit Homelink mirror, etc.
8. 3.73 diff swap + finned E60 diff cover
9. Rear subframe bushings, diff bushings and retrofit rear sway bar (while I'm in there...)
+ whatever else comes up
*EDIT* plus headlights... see, there's already stuff to do that I am forgetting. The halogens on this car are about as bright the ones on my old '88 Celica.

Super interesting list I'll be excited to watch where this goes
The headlights is the biggest thing in my option that's makes this car just a touch scary lol.
I don't know how we survived without projectors! XD
