    best 1000 dollars ever spent

    i spent all morning detailing my car and took a few snapshots. i kno shes just a lowly 4dr eta, but i don't care. i love her. i was inspired to take the time to clean her today because not too long ago, i got into a lil fender bender which knocked my grill out of place. well a few days ago i finally got the clips to attach them and resprayed it flat black. ill let the pics do the talkin now.









    dad's e39 and my car




    that's all folks. i know shes begging to be lowered and i've got that covered. a set of IE stage 3 springs on order, koni yellows in my garage and m3 bushings on its way.

        yeah, totally Ryan, there's no way in hell I'd make it in/out of your driveway
        Car looks great, what was the 1000 spent on? Did I miss something? And your hood looks a tiny bit bent on the driver's side.

                        You need to smoke your parking lights and turn signals. It looks WAY better than the clear, and blends really well with the black bumper surround. Also, take some shoe polish to your front bumper strip.

                            does the shoe polish take away the hazy look on the black? whould it also work on e36 plastic molding?
