    "The Girlfriend's Car" Project

    Girlfriend's dad sold the car at a hilarious loss. This is basically an "in memoriam" thread now.

    All that work for absolutely nothing.

    My girlfriend's dad and I have been working tirelessly on my girlfriend's 325i. We got the car for a song and the project's been shaping up nicely since.

    Before and after!

      We're going to work some paint out soon. We're thinking of totally murdering out the car.

                    I've never seen injector testing done quite like this. Is it spray pattern you are detecting with mouth?



                    Wow, head looks clean enough to eat out of. Did you do something?


                    Pretty young lady. GF, I presume. Does she have sisters?

                              Sweet. I actually just picked up a late model for my GF, it will go under the knife in about 2 weeks. Keep up the good work
