So you total spent $4K to fix it right. Good project and Good investment.
$15400 only 45K miles is really a good deal and the car had no frame damage or mechanical damage. The only down side is reselling with Salvage title. As long you keep the pix of before and after, you should find someone to buy it.

Very nice Carbon Black M3. Have you got your young one a new ride?

Fast Cars!
Nice work... I too could have fixed that car for under 5k. As long as you source the parts out correctly and buy decent used parts, then it is not hard, If you were buying all brand new parts then forget it.
