 You're wintering it after a new paint job? I don't think I'd let my car see rain if I got a new (proper) paint job.

Looks good, put on some clear bra if you want to keep it somewhat chip free

If you've got rust there then you have to be sure you get it all.
Get a sand blaster kit from Crappytire, I don't think its enough to
just grind it out. The rust on mine was pretty nasty, so I cut back
and tacked in some metal. I had a pretty good guide looking over
my shoulder so I'm not going to take all the credit.

There are lots of opinions on sandblasting vs treating vs coating.
I am going with rust bullet (coating) Car is never going to see winter.

Ya I'm not going to baby it, I built it with a 5 year plan in mind. It'll be a daily driver and occasional track toy until I build an e21 group 5 replica for the track and get a new low key daily, at that point i'll kill it.
As per the M bits question... I got every thing from Tom at bimmer auto in Camebridge.
