    Some pics after polish/wax

    Thought I'd share some pics after spending about 7+ hours of polishing/waxing it with a rotary.

    Some things I've done since I last shared pics are...

    Installed a z3 shortshift and a M-knob, incredible feeling shifting now.
    Painted the spoiler, was looking grim before.
    New JL audio speakers installed in the front, the isolation between the speaker and the panel was still there, don't know how the previous owner could have missed taking that away.

    anyhoo here are the (many) pics:
























    Here's some trendwhore pics
















    Future plans are:

    Refurbish the wheels
    Spray beneath the sideskirts
    Tint
    Sportseats
    New exhaust (stock one is rusty)

    Haven't decided what to do with the engine just yet.

    My tires are 215/40, I'm thinking about getting 45s to fill the wheel arch instead of lowering it, is that a good idea?

    Very nice and exceptionally clean. I was about to say how detailed you were with all of the euro items on the car and then I read where you were from.

            Thanks, yea lucky for me I don't have to change bumpers and what not, but I dig alot of american e30s, they can achieve a unique style.

            Thanks, the night pics could have been better though, I should have toyed around more with the settings and lights

            Here's one sort of high res.

            PM me your email if you want the original raw pic.

                      Sex on wheels, trendy or not i still enjoy seeing light pics like that. They are all still different every time.
