        Just read through this. Awesome build. Great attention to detail.

        So you put all this work getting it spotless and pristine and then you're going to turn it into a track rat? Gonna be the freshest car on the track!!

          Thanks man and I believe so; I'm horrible with names but if i remember correctly Omar right? You did a bang up job on his shirts btw. He was telling me about your build but didn't have any photos on hand.

          Very glad that it inspires people; that truly means a lot to me. From my friends to acquaintances to strangers.

          To me it's not perfect, I still spot little details that bother me that of course no one else notices. Ultimately (paint wise) I wanted a 10 footer car if anything; which I've been told (that's been more than humbling) that its a 5 ft car if anything. I personally don't hold expectations so that I let myself or others down in case I mess up. After all this is my first true build and since day one I've always figured... If someone's gonna fuck up working on my car I'd rather it be me..

            ^ YEA thats me.

            when i first opened the thread something seemed familiar about the car, but it was so far from what it is now that it was hard to believe, full on compliment*

            also, really happy those shirts were well received!

                Makes me want to do a full respray on my Cirrus vert. Paint turned out great. Flake seems to flow as it should . I cant notice any of the "imperfections" you speak of , but I know how it is. We all fixate on those small blemishes.

                At anything less than 5 mph nobody will ever be able to notice them. :)

                    Actually a prototype but something along those lines yes.

                    You should! Totally agree though I'm super OCD so I notice a lot of things many just don't.

                      Had a bit of free time yesterday while waiting for the oil to drain out my other car. Snapped a few golden hour flicks..

                        Pretty much joined r3v to comment on your car. Best looking e30 on the site IMO. I don't know many people that have the patience/skill to pull this all together.

                          Major props. Obviously lots of time and money has gone into this car. Well worth it! There aren't many nice cirrus cars out there but it is a prime example. Definitely my favorite e30 color.

                            Seriously that's the best compliment I've ever received. Brought such a huge smile to my face reading this. I deeply appreciate that and hope that it inspires people to challenge themselves in the same fashion. If you want something bad enough, nothing will stand in your way.

                            Thank you for that sir!

                            Thank you Miss Ray! Subscribed to your build btw, really admire the work your doing with it and love the steering wheel work your bf has done. Appreciate the kind words :D:D:D
