S14.net withdrawals....

[valleymotorwerks]

No offense meant but I can't pallet AC stuff. Far too gaudy, especially for such a classy machine like an e30 in my opinion.

They also need to fire their marketing department. I think this is the worst ad execution I've seen, other than a NO AD sunscreen poster. However, it does reflect exactly how I feel about "anything AC Schnitzer" so I took this with a cell phone browsing through BMWcar mag.

To each his own.. if you knew the history behind Schnitzer and the German auto industry you might think differently. ACS doesn't need to build desire or brand recognition in their product and it is reflected in the ad. All the ad is doing is letting people know there are creative ways to finance the purchase of ACS products. It is simple and to the point the way an ad should be.

Also bear in mind that ad is for the UK market and is keeping in theme with my UK cycling magazines I read. It's about financing and getting expensive stuff into the hands of the overtaxed British publick. :)

IMO the wheels are definately not gaudy nor is any ACS part for that matter. They are period correct for the car...

Additonally all their stuff needs to meet TUV approval to be mounted on a German car. Here in the states we cend up with 24" wheels on an E46.. talk about gaudy.

Does anyone know if there is an ETA when the site will be back up? :(

Anyone want to do some withdrawal shopping? :P

Hmmm if your careful I bet it would be really close. You'd have to remove all the old coating. DO NOT PREP THE SURFACE beyond cleaning. If you spray and do not like it you can peel it off like a skin. It's similar to white glue on your fingers... You can get it at Lowes or Home Despot. I've used it to black out my Mini Cooper like this:



When it pits or chips I peel it off and respray
