    Funny you ask, the only part on the car that is not "my" original paint is the hood. I actually swapped it from a friends cabbie the night before the show and then fully detailed the car.

    However, the best part about my "not so good hood" is it was the only part on the car that was previously repainted in about ~'93 when the PO decided he wanted to play with a deer.

    So in short, car is all original paint minus the hood which started to oxidize and flake clear coat(go figure since the rest of the car has none). It also can look this good because this car was extremely well taken care of prior to me buying it in 2004. It sat in a garage for seven years prior as a "backup" car so it also explains my crack free dash.

        Can't wait to see it with the Ix skirts and flares. I'm thinking of doing the same thing to mine.

        When will they be on?

              I really dig the smoked hella's and the yellow high's and lows. Looks so good on your car.

                        Yes and no.

                        Headlights are Euro Bosch ellips which I smoked originally the correct way with crosshairs etc.. Then I lamin-xed all of the lights but used clear on the lows and yellow on the highs and fogs.

                          I have no idea why, but the first time I saw this, I didn't look closely at the pic and thought you were giving advice on how to get the ends to not splay out like they do.

                          Second time around.... cause I totally agree.

                            Nice rides , was it just the 3 e30's? I cant wait until I get mine back on the road. You guys have it nice & clean. Mine needs a respray. I still need the front M Tech bumper & valence. I also just picked up a 91 white M Tech. I hope to have that sold in 2 weeks
