            I would only wrap a car if it was a beater you just wanted to look nice

            you don't wrap an E30 M3.. May as well wrap a 250 california

                  Is that a new type of cold air intake? Looks like dead weight! I thought cold air intakes are supposed to be inside your fender?? I'm confused!!

                      Hey all, thanks for the responses.

                      I'm thinking of wrapping to protect the paint and just have the fun of a different color while doing so. Just kid of for fun.

                      I wish I could get all the cars together for a shot, but I'm building a new garage so everything is scattered around right now and sole in shops. I will soon though. Waiting for that one shot of the lineup of rears.

                      The car really doesn't "need" anything ( i.e. Spacers) but I just can't help but tinker with it.

                      One of the more interesting aspects of the build is the vi-pec system. Having that tuning software on a laptop at all times is a new experience for me. Should prove to be a great waste of time.

                            The Benz would get destroyed! haha At best they make ~350. If the M3 was NA that would be a decent comparison

                                Ya... Grey could be nice. Also, wraps have become so cheap that it's almost just worth it for paint protection. A local shop with great reviews has quoted $1,600.
                                Where? I would totally do mine if that's the price range. To like a deep blue. Thanks in advance. Sick M3 btw.
