E55 fuel cell and trunk tank almost done

Well I have been working on my car again finally. Had a custom fuel cell/trunk tank made that is 99% complete. So if everything goes right I will be installing it next week. Figured I would share a few pics since I haven't posted up in a while.

Holy krap. Nice. Was wondering what happened to your build just the other day. Excited to see what you built!

What exactly is the intent of the fuel cell jw are you ditching the original or..? Never really seen that done except for the CL55 that drove across the country in record time.

After all that work you are using the plastic sender units? I'd figure you would somehow change over to a different non leaking pump system.

This place is a joke.
A hard rear end collision will not turn out well. There are multiple power wires just forward or below your fuel cell location.

He could put in an inertia power kill switch from a late model Ford.
