    Technically, only 3 of them were yours. The front left is not yours. :D

      Looks awesome :up:

      Jordan, I was wondering, since you're so good at bodywork, why haven't you tried your hand at painting? Just curious...

        I see a flaw!

        Your M-Tech II rear spoiler doesn't sit as flush on the left compared to the right.

        Amazing work. When's that Carbon Fiber hood coming in?
        Reminiscing...

                  No, I assume you are talking about that black mark. It is where I sanded through the primer on the final 600grit sand.

                  I have painted cars in the past, and I can (although I no longer have a gun) Simply put I don't have the facilities to properly paint a car. Painting a car outside wont yield good dust free results.

                  This is true, I noticed it when it got back from the bodyshop over a year ago. I need to loosen the wing, and move it. Thats all.

                  VIS Carbon Fiber hood will be added to the car soon. Hoping for this saturday, but more likely monday.

                      I don't like the lines of that on the E30, however, that is a masterful job of fitting it on there. Its definitely not some chopped on yoo-roh body kit with wavy fitments!

                      Looks topnotch. Congrats.

                          I second the pics. 8)

                          Also - I don't remember what you finally settled on. Were you keeping it the CarbonFiber look, or having it painted body color?

                            sorry, should have said window trim. Are you going to shadowline it or paint it body color?

                              I would guess CF, if you want a light, body colored hood, then get a FG one :P

                              I've never seen body-color window trim. I can imagine it would be ugly though :P
                              Jordan's car is shadowlined... except the passenger door?

                                None of the shadowline is off the car... pointless to put it back on, onto to take it back off.
