    im running the b34 with the b35 cam and motronic 1.3 upgrade. aside from having a bit less power its great and i have all the robostness and compression for boosting that the b34 is know for!
    I'm going to have to look in to this. Do you have a write up on the motronic upgrade?

      Front valance was bought off craig's list just to clean up the front. It's a fiberglass knock off of something. Craig's list guy epoxied the mesh stuff in really good. Not sure if I'm going to paint it or dremel it out. I got all winter to decide. I also need to address the raised rubber portion on the bumper.

        As for the chicken coop fencing fogs, they've gotta go...
        Last I checked, chicken coop fencing is not banned at any of the tracks I'll be attending.

          For $100, that paint looks amazing. The Nova needs a paint job and I'd drive cross country to get a sick flat black paint job (69 Nova + E46 M3 wheels + flat black paint = friggin SEX).

          EDIT: And I kinda like the mesh. It contrasts beautifully with the paint. :)

              That RD valance looks gangster as fuck! :hitler:

              Buy some euro bumpers down the road and a rear valence to make the car look better. :pimp:

              As far as the chicken wire, shoot it with black and it'll look way better. ;)

                    I'd leave the mesh, it gives contrast...matches the headlights...only paint mesh black if you smoke the headlights...

                          the paint came out really well from what the pics show. i wouldn't mind having a $100 paint job if it turned out the way yours did.

                          great job!!

                            Nope, stock steering rack.

                                looks great! I started to paint my last car with the JD Blitz Black, but it reacted really strangely to my plastic bumpers and fiberglass hood. I ended up just going with schwarzII
