The color or quality of the paint on an 02 is unimportant.

S14's are cool in 2002s.  

 

Back in 1995 when I did this swap BMW CCA had a "valuation advisor" for determining insurance rates.  When I called and told him I had swapped in an S14, he was so appalled he practically screamed "jesus, why don't you just put in a Buick engine!".

13" tires and wheels are so old fashioned

 

Riviera and Atlantic are very similar colors

 

"UPS" Brown, Goldbraun, and tobacco are all the same

 

6 fuses are better than 12

 

original steering wheels - or nothing else

My preference is the all silver grills, don't really like the partially or all blacked out grills.

No they didn't, I read it on the internet so I know that's not true

02's dont need AC. That's what the holes in the floor are for..

 

My car was equipped with holes in the Bulkhead, I figured the only way to plug them was to add A/C hoses, since I was there I also added the rest of the A/C bits since it looked stupid driving around with the hoses dangling around

It says Automatic on the back. So why is it a manual???

Why would you spend $20k+ to rebuild a tired old matching numbers engine when you can just buy one on eBay for under $2k that was rebuilt 20 years ago and only has 2 miles on it?!?!

Digital Audio Player? Are you on crack? The only music I listen to is the sweet sound of that M10 howling at the moon as I push down, down, down on the accelerator pedal.

Scrapper??? I just met her!!!
