    iS Okay?

    Shitty cell pics, but I'm too ecstatic over the results not to share.





    Fresh paint. Fresh iS stuff. Front fenders worked. Chrome kidneys waiting for me to put them on.

    Action pics of the car getting all slidey and such coming 3/27. :D

    Looks great man. I'd paint all that stuff below your rockers black, to hide it from common observation. Other than that, with a set of chrome grills, i'd say you're set!

                            I think there are some really, really awesome BMW colors out there besides their silvers/blacks, but thanks for the compliment!

                            I couldn't put into words how much I do enjoy it. It rides like hell, but I don't care. I want to feel every little ant I crush on the road. It's fucking worth it.

                            I really can't, the little spaces you see are the black clips to hold the iS skirts on, I didn't think about painting them silver when I put them on, but there is no way I am taking those fuckers off. Thank you for the compliment!!

                            GC with Short bodied Koni's. A bit chopped off of the strut tube, got another 2 turns down to go if I wanted. The wheels are cheap ass XXR 521s. They make me happy. Especially with the 90mm Vorshlag studs.

                            Enough that I'm missing about half my manhood. :| But they did a LOT of work.
