    Pleasantly surprised man. However, please debadge the M emblems it's tacky. I love the color, and those wheels are awesome. Specs and brand?

    Overall I think it's more than decent for a $1,300 paint job. I got an estimate for $1200 to paint my 7series fender with a small dent lol so you didn't come out half bad. Sure the prep could have been better, but as long as your happy with it, that's what counts.

    And I hate to say it, but IMO the moldings and trim in black would look much better.

      Looks like a decent paint job. But why the "M emblem?

            Imo, the trim needs to be black, ya need 10-15mm spacers, and come down a bit. As long as you like it, enjoy it.
            Yup im lowering it ASAP!

              My 325i badge broke so for now i just threw on the M emblem. I dont know the exact specs on the wheels. They are Racing harts, i think c4's . 17 inch. Yes it could have been prepped better but hey, it turned out great. For some reason i like the trim in blue. Im going to post more PROFESSIONAL pictures asap.

                  So unoriginal. I couldn't place it until I looked at the latest pics...




                  Looks just like Suspense's old car. I mean exactly, well, exactly with two more doors.

                        Unoriginal? Do you think that guy has the only blue e30 in the world? why do black, silver, red, white paint job. when every other e30 is that color. I like the blue and think its sick. plus those rims are wack.

                            Did he at least take off the door moldings to paint?
                            It looks good for what you shouldn't of paid.
                            Your wheel well is blue lol.

                                Oh yeah of course he did take them off. Lol i think its what i should have paid for... For a ton of body work, painted engine bay, door jams, trunk, the whole car.... well worth my money.
