    minor updates on my baby back in action

    After waiting about a week for repairs (tie rods, control arm, oil pan gasket) my baby finally arived yesterday. I had some parts I recieved that needed to go on. First I took off my old trim and put on my euro trim with no sidemarkers. Next, I did the smoked turn signals without the yellow shit in the back. Finally, I topped it off with the black center grille. My next update will be on a shadowline :o

    If you're interested I am selling my sidemarkers and american rear bumper trim. The sidemarkers do have working bulbs in them. The rear bumper trim is in tact. The front ones I cracked haha.

    Enjoy =)







    The ass with no sidemarkers :D

    Smoked ellipsoids.
    Remove that chrome BMW plate and get a plate delete piece.
    Drop.
    Wheels.
    Rear badge removal.
    Pinstripe removal.

    Drop coming first. Then that car will be hot as shit.
    Reminiscing...

      the bmw plate will be removed and replaced with a black one. I am getting smoked elipsoids and mhw smoked tails. Soon as I'm done with those I am dropping it. After the drop I'm adding the wheels, then the lip and sideskirts.

      BTW what did you mean by pinstrips :?:

          eh i thought bout it but it juss seems like a hassle because its not sticker strips. If you got any easy way of doing it without harming the paint I'll get around to it but it doesnt bother me that much especially at night or under the sun. Those pics were glooomy

              your car is fairly new so the pinstripes should come right off with a bit of heat. mine did at least I just peeled it off during the summer when the car was hot from sitting in the sun.

                I'm assuming the rear trim won't fit my driving boards, but how badly are the signals cracked? I can't see anything from the pictures.

                    Nooooo, drop it first, then new rims that aren't yuppie bling, and then get smoked lights.

                      nothing on my car is currently cracked. I cracked the american trim taking it off. I payed $120 for 2 front and 2 rear euro trims. How do I peel the pinstripes... it doesnt look like a sticker it looks painted on there. And no they won't fit on diving boards. The turn signals aren't cracked they are brand new. I have my old ones for sale if anyone wants those as well.

                      As for dropping it before the smoked stuff ehhh i dunno i wanna get the little things out of the way before I do the major things. Might change my mind later down the road but as for now thats the plan.

                        Looks great dude, I really need euro trim myself

                        I agree with TJ, drop it now, then do lighting.

                        Paint the wheels for now so they're not CHROME! :)

                          But armenians in glendale love chrome. Though, it doesn't look too bad on his car.

                              brand new from BMA. Juss get the part #'s off of realOEM and you're all set. I was thinking about painting them black but at this point I'm so broke after repairs I can't even buy enough cans to paint 4 wheels. If you wanna donate to the armen foundation for window trim and wheel paint you're more then welcome to :P
