looking good Fred! Your paintjob really stands out in these pics and the yellow and green RD stickers match the whole car's theme.

Between you pulling this off and Bill's rear valence project this weekend, I gotta say ex-BEN'rs rawk!!!!

[Grant]

Those look good with that color. Nice work!

[Brew]

The wheels look awesome.

What size tires you running? es100s, right?

[formula driver]

Car looks amazing man. Rims are sick too... very rare. What color is that?

[BMW BMXER]

Dope, the green accents are cool

[E30-323ti]

LOOKS GREAT!!

The wheels really suit the E30, but, that rear bumper HAS TO GO!!!
Just plain nasty!!!

[Fred]

Hehe, I'm working on the rear bumper but that's #2 on the priority list now. #1 is the engine and I'm getting started on that next weekend. The entire car actually needs paint, (it looks better in photos than in person), but the way I figure all the body work should be done at one time. Knowing the way I work, it won't be done until the end of this summer, but if Eric and Bill want to fly out here and give me a hand I might be able to finish it sooner. ;)

Brew, yup, 215/40ZR17 ES100s. I was going to get a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE750s but the Yokohamas were on sale at the time. I kinda wish I got the Potenzas since they're not only stickier, but also slightly wider and protect the rim better. Meh.

formula driver, it's Arctic Blue Metallic.

Thanks guys! :up:

clean ride man love the wheels, who makes those side skirts?

Dope, the green accents are cool

That's the first time I've ever heard of brake pads refered to as a cosmetic element.

Fred, i've always liked your car....but have always had this thing about the way the front and the rear don't flow thanks to the bench on the back.

Other than that...I really like everything you've done to the car...kept it clean.

[DEV0 E30]

I love it.

Just curious... what is your estimate on hp/tq that your 2.8 Stoker will output?

[hamann318is]

So hot. :up:
