        That's just damn sexy, Ryan.

        I may have to convince you to come spend a raucous weekend in SD to help me paint my Tii. It still isn't painted!

              Totally agree. I think those LM copies even look better on the E28 then the E30!

                I was trying to figure out why he posted that orange!
                For 500 bucks who really cares if there is orange peel, paint looks great other than that!

                    Awesome job. I'd be very interested in seeing how you did this; it's something I'd like to try.

                      wow looks great!

                      In the picture, the final result defenetly does not look like a ghetto homejob :) I'm sure it looks great in person too.
                      And those wheels look a lot better on the E28.

                      Oh and I want your garage :evil:

                          I am impressed with your do-it-yourself-ability. That is a very enviable job you have done. Truly impressed. :up:

                              Wow, thanks guys!! Those were some great comments, keep em comming!
                              I wish there was less orange peel, but at the end of the day, I painted it MYSELF in a garage with a cheap gun and a compressor that couldn't keep-up with the flow.
                              For $500 at earl shieb, you will not get something looking as good as this does.

                                Wow, very nice. I may end up painting one or both of my 2002s (depending if one turns into 'parts' or not) myself, inside and out as it will be a shell before I'm done with it :) Just if I had a useable garage though...mine is crammed full of crap.
