    "testarossa"

    With Bimmerstock around the corner, I couldn't help but look at the e30 and see that she isn't ready. Paint looked good from about 20 feet away but that's about it. Swirl marks in the paint, some body panels a bit faded and not the awesome bright red it should be. So I got to work. claybarred, polished and then waxed her. My god this turned the car from a regular old red car to an amazing head turner. I kick myself in the pants everytime I see her thinking to myself how stupid I was not to have done this earlier. I don't have any before pics as the battery in my camera died. But here are some shots after in the driveway and then a quick photoshoot.






    I then decided to drive down to Great Kills park and take a few photos near the Marina.













    Thanks for viewing, hope to see some of you at Bimmerstock!

                          Clean car braaah. You should repspray your whole grill since it makes the kidneys stand out alot, and it will make the front look alot cleaner. ;)

                                                  Do not reapray any trim!
                                                  People who do are retarded!

                                                  Use peanut oil! Poor some on a micro fiber cloth and run onto the trim, it lasts long an seriously brings back black plastic trim.

                                                  Same idea as back to black, except peanut oil costs way less and actually works
