		Interior roof and pillar trim
		
		So I need some advise. I need to do the vinyl roof trim and the A pillar trim in the car. If I had been thinking, I would have done this while it was on the rotisserie, but I wasn't! I did the headliner this way. I don't know why I didn't do the rest then... So which order do the pieces go in? Sides first, then windshield header? Any pictures of how the ends are folded or detailed? What is the best way to go about it? Foam onto the vinyl first or foam on the car first? Glue applied to the vinyl or onto the car? Spray glue or yellow contact cement? I have been procrastinating on this but it's time to get it done. Thanks for any help C

		This will be unfortunate news if windshields are the new NLA! That will make installation that much more stressful

		I found two different forums with similar pictures. Some interesting thoughts in these threads https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2384311-Need-Advice-on-Damaged-Piston https://motoredbikes.com/threads/detonation.42539/ Detonations seems to appears as finer pock marks almost bubbly looking

		The marks don't really look like a foreign object in the cylinder. You would expect them to be evenly distributed and they're not. I think Zed might be right. Too much timing advance?

		I would keep all 4. They have different ID's. Im hopeful at some point, someone will start making these using the original washers as a core @nix240z

		That's a grungy booster!!! I think I would rebuild that... I had the same velour seats in my first 240z. The were in the car when I bought it in about 86'. I believe they were original to the car
