    My "New" M-Tech II 325iS: Part II (Actually Finished)

    Part 1 (at the bodyshop still): http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=169335

    Well, I just picked it up today. It's been 13 months, but it finally looks great. All the bodykit is new, genuine Mtec2 (except the replica spoiler, and the sidepods are used). Almost all the exterior trim is new. I also had the grilles refinished in a very nice gloss black. The paint is DuPont's premier product (Lachsilber Metallic). I've got a German plate to go on the front (courtesy of europlates) and also I should be getting a new exhaust with chrome tips. Otherwise, I think the exterior is finished.
    Does everyone like the chrome window trim? I know most like shadowline, but I think my car can pull it off...



    The guys at Car Classics in Port Richey FL. Great job guys!













    Yea, that sticker is like $10. What you get for owning old cars I guess...

    I think the spoiler is one of my favourite things... I like the way it makes the rear window look not so big...

        Oh yeah, what I need opinions on right now: the guy forgot to add the "325iS" badge... do most prefer debadged, or with it? I personally like the badge, just because it's an iS and because probably no-one would know what it was otherwise...

                Why thanks... personally I really like yours, I guess they're fairly similar now :-)

                  Great.
                  You need to re-attach the "M-Technic" sticker ;)

                  not feelin' the smoked turnsignals or the xenon, though. But all over it's a real beauty!

                  planning wheels? :)

                  Edit: and yeah, this:

                    Lol, yea, the guy was talking with me on the phone when applying the sticker, whatevs... I'm sure I'll need a new one in 6 months with Florida UV levels ;-)
                    I'm considering just grey turn signal covers, the black worked better with the old black trim...

                    As for wheels, those are only three years old... if you want to buy me a set of 17" BBS RS-GTs though, I'm taking donations :-D

                          Looks great! I wouldn't change a thing except aligning the sticker. Don't shadow line IMAO, your E30 pulls it off just fine!

                            i say you leave the badge off, shadowline it, get a genuine mtech spoiler to go with your kit, other than that the thing is a work of art.

                              Plate filler, shadowline, and genuine spoiler. That is all...
