Going to paint my car with Hurculiner Bed Liner This Week

[Mulholland]

that's one way to make sure you never have to clay a car. I'm guessing at least 5 hp drop do to loss of aerodynamics...

aerodynamics don't affect your engines/drivetrain's horsepower output/transfer you stupid dick.

I'm guessing at least a 5 hp drop DUE to reading your post.


as far as the herculiner jobs, I think they are better once sanded and prettied up a bit than other matt looking finished attempted at home.

so for what it's worth, I think it came out pretty nice. Total sleeper now! Seriously... s52+herculiner = sexy beast hahahaha

Jordan is that you?

Relax, its not healthy to be this uptight.

I think it looks good, investing a lot of money on a paint job is worthless specialy on a car that has rust spots already on it. Sean it's Your car and do what You have to do to save money looks good.

yeah I'm mean for telling the OP it looks nice but for flaming the fucktard saying that the texture of the OP's paint job will likely cost him 5 horsepower...

I wouldn't be mean for telling a smart person they were smart, and I'm not mean for telling a retard they are retarded. I'm just honest, and blunt. I wasn't unfair though, his post was insanely stupid.


On a side note, anyone ever used any of that hammered metal texture paint? I think I may see what bottlecaps look like texture painted lol.

i wish i would have taken pics of the previous paint. it cosisted of bar metal thanks to a ton of tree sap. deep and light scratches all over thanks to a pine tree, normal rust here and there which i took care off before coating it a couple dents that i was able to pound out. the bottom of the back bumper has a large chunck missing due to god know what. your typical $1500 car. i really did not want to spend a ton of money on paint ect.. im going to sand it today and clean it up. im going to start working on the suspension next week.

loss of aerodynamics...

On an e30? :rofl:


I think the crappy old paint looked better, at least it didn't look like crap from far away like this does.

you know it might not actually look that bad with some sort of semi gloss clearcoat on it.

George Graves, you are my new hero. Thank you.

= sexy beast hahahaha

You shouldnt say that. Sounds gay.

[Mulholland]

You shouldnt say that. Sounds gay.

only if I were talking about a guy... since... you know... homosexual = guy on guy action, not carlust.

Besides which, you have Thor in your name... I don't think I need you telling me what is and is not gay sounding.

[rThor432]

^^Looks like you failed anyway.

Thor is the God of thunder. He's a viking with a bfh. That's pretty manly, if you ask me..

And it's also my last name..

And you got the ban.. Fool.

Wow am i the only one who thinks thats a badass looking E30? You guys are all abunch of haters! Id rather have liner than primer.

[BMW BMXER]
