      Thanks guys, the pictures are what I had uploaded directly to FB over the past year off my BlackBerry. I bought the car in August of 2010 and she was buttoned up in May 2011. I would have posted stuff up sooner but once I found out my wife was pregnant it became a race to finish the car without rushing the restoration. Now that things are getting back to normal I feel like I can finally start catching up my documentation.

      The color is Mystic Green Metallic and its actually a stock color for the 2011 Honda Accord. I wanted something different but classy and this color fit the bill perfectly.

      I will try to get better detailed pics when I pull her out of hibernation and clean her up for spring driving.

          I love that colour, it reminds me of the E21 I had for a bit. Is it an official colour, or a one off you had made up? Edit: Never mind, spotted the post with paint details.

          Also, that e30 badge. So much want.

            Beautiful work man, and I agree with what someone said, didn't really like those wheels when I saw them, but Mila makes them look real good!

            Props!

                Bravo Robert, Bravo!

                I was halfway into restoring my t-stars when Luis put those wheels up f/s . Let me know when/if you want to let those go.

                        Awesome job bro! I gotta do rust repair on my car over the summer... Any tips? I dont want to strip the interior but I do plan on taking off the fenders and what not to grind it off and weld in patch panels.

                        P.S. My cars name is Mika (after the blonde in Eurotrip)

                          Great work! I saw you mention the name of the green, but is it originally a BMW color?
