                          As I said I cleaned the inside, it was mostly removing old anti rust product and rests of sound isolation, although I like cleaning this was a shitty job because I used thinner for removing it and and the anti rust product was persistent.

                          Some pictures:



















                          When you see the car would you say that there is not a lot of rust in it, but that becomes another story when its stripped. There's a lot of rust in it!
                          And here is an overview of all rust, holes, defects that need to be repaired:

                          Front, engine bay, front arches:






















                          Front window, including beehive:





                          Jacking points and inside:






                          Rear, rear arches, trunk:












                          (this must be planarized)

                          (I'm going to omit the 520-logo and welding the holes)

                          Doors:







                          Panel under the front bumper, front fenders:








                          (because the car had a towbar they mounted directionlights on the fender because that's the law here in Belgium, I'm gonna remove those ugly things)

                          As you can see I got a lot of work on the body, this is the first time I'm gonna do this so if you got advice on the works you just can say it .
                          Started with removing things for a cleaner look.

                          Sound isolation in the engine bay:







                          Ugly silicon:




                          Also removed the tow in the rear:






                          Then started with the serious work, removed front panel:



                          Tomorrow visit BMW to order panels.

                          Hopefully you do not mind that I post a lot of photos!
