    Having the colors out of wack prevents a cease and desist order from BMW's corporate lawyers.

      from the picture on your website, it looks like your logo designer in Cali also painted the wall in your garage incorectly.. oops

          I got the early model full rubber one to be correct with the car

          As far as the colors if anyone wants to come and repaint the office and pay for another run of cards they are more than welcome, but I'm not too worried about it.

            Dude, I had no problem, I've just done a lot of reading and owned a couple turbo cars. Y-ing the exhaust that close to the turbo isn't "optimal". I gave you kudos and one little piece of constructive criticism, stop getting your panties in a bunch.

            and yeah, attention to detail, but the M colors are backwards = epic fail for people browsing your site who are true enthusiasts.

              Hey, I'll paint the shop in exchange for some work... Looks like my car is going to be there for a bit this spring...
              Maybe that'll make some folks around here feel better about life.

                  No worries, sorry I was a bit ornery this morning. Trust me when it comes to the work and the cars details are not overlooked, ok so maybe we were a bit colorblind, actually just checked the cards and they are correct.

                  As far as painting the shop thanks for the offer but we are fine with it and it still looks new. PM me if you need work done in the spring.

                      Lol. Hey, it was worth a shot, right? I guess I'll PM you when I get back home from this shithole that is Southport, NC.

                              Really cool, man. I used to work at Excelerate in Branford. Now I run the dyno at Swift in Norwich since the old tuner/owner left. I'll have to stop in and check your shop out sometime.
