Two tools I've always wanted, but never pulled the trigger. With your skill set, I'm looking forward to what you do with them.
I’ve wanted them for a while and decided to save up to get them. I knew it would be the difference in looking homemade and professional. As well as being able to stiffen thinner/lighter material.

Slowly but surely I’m getting there. Got the frame painted with 1 coat etching primer, 2 coats filler, 2 coats gloss black. All rustoleum rattlecans, we will see how it holds up. Has a few drips but overall looks decent. Since I got the bead roller and dimple dies I have been remaking some things that I made a while back and wasn’t happy with. I’m working on a new battery tray today.

Finally finished fall semester so I have plenty of time over the next month to work on the truck. I picked up a continental ABS unit and yaw sensor. I will see about installing a steering angle sensor as well to maintain DSC function. The unit will run standalone and is very programmable. I have bmw programming software as well as an m3 “tune” to start with. I was originally planning on not running abs but after some research I ended up with this unit which is far superior to any gm ABS unit.

What's it from? I hate the factory ABS on these trucks. It's utterly worthless.

Wikipedia says 2006-2011 3-series. My race team kept the ABS on our '95 BMW and it makes a significant difference in stopping capability. It's been very reliable, the brakes bleed without special tools, and the only problem we've had was a self-induced wiring issue.
