E28 Alpina Build - by Pedi

6 minute(s) of a 417 minute read

Sorry for not updating lately, I have been busy lately - so I have not done too much with the E28 due to me attending a new job.

Thank you guys for the kind words!

anyway, I needed a new cover for my Iphone - and found this on Ebay






I have used a special foam to ensure that water stays in the door, and to silence the door even more...







Mounted on one door...







Looking better?







Left rear door






Damn, I cannot find all pieces. The only one I did find, was broken. But new ones are placed in order...





New front window, green with a green shade. Bronze front windshield are out of stock, this is the only reason I have gone for the green window solution instead og bronze.





Yeah...





Too short in both ends, I have to take the list out again, warm it and try to stretch it alittle...






Endclips rear...






Ready for assembly...





This list was waaay to short (I did not remember that from disassembly), so I have placed a order for a new one.





All windows are in, just moonroof left now - and the car is "waterproof"

Rear window:






Not much of an update, but all small steps are one step closer to finish-line, right?

Here is the E28 as we speak:

I have been busy in my new job, but got a couple of hours yesterday. That was nice, since I have some small things to do:

First out was to put final layer of paint to brackets.





Coated, ready for some Tectyl before assembly.








While I was waiting for the parts to dry, I figured that I should put together the rear bumper





All pieces new, dipped in Tectyl before and after assembly





Result





Completed rear bumper, just missing the brackets...





Front bumper missed left and center rubberpieces:





Hopefully I will get the center from BMW germany next week.





Better and better..





I think it looks nice though...





Some small parts I needed...






So that allowed me to complete left rear door.





A-pillars looks sad without cover





Much better...





And a final pic...


I just had to take a pic like this. Not too often I have the pleaseure of having 2 original brand new, fresh painted bumpers with all accessories new ass swell mounted on a car. Me likey...
