I meant that most would just rattlecan them and call it a day but you went the extra mile and let the pros handle it which is great. They look excellent on yoru car. I just recently refinished a single basketweave myself with Wurth spray cans and it's hard to get proper coverage in all the little nooks and crannies. So I decided the next set would be professionally stripped and painted or perhaps powercoated but I hear that if the rim gets curbed or damaged, it can't simply be repaired with paint but would have to be recoated. Not a big deal with rims with polished lips but kind of is with solid color wheels.Originally posted by nando View PostLast edited by reelizmpro; 11-17-2012, 04:05 PM."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Yeah, I.ve done that too. But good rattle cans aren't cheap, it's extremely time consuming, and not nearly as durable. Its not worth it in the end, and in 5 years these will still be like new.Comment

it's actually pretty dirty :p
here's a blurry, more settled suspension snapshot:
Not sure if/when I'll raise it up a bit. maybe when it actually starts to snow. right now if it were even 1mm lower I wouldn't be able to get a jack under the front subframe without driving onto ramps first. :pComment
