Car is fucking clean as hell. Bumpers are the shit too.

So how did you come about owning this beauty?

Through a WTB ad. The owner found me. At the time I was looking for an iS or iX.

The paint definitely improved with the Porter Cable, but it is far from outstanding. There are some dents and chips that can not be seen in the photos.

You got the Porter Cable? I was going to buy one of those in spring to bring back my paint. How bad was yours and what products did you use to bring it back?

That's awesome, I bet that's about the last car you expected someone to call you up offering!

What did you pay for it, if you don't mind my asking?

Where do you find a front spoiler like that? I may be picking up a early model E30 soon. I want to euro-ize it and that spoiler is really nice.

It's an OEM euro piece.

Bottom one:

^yeah, I'm loving that euro look. I wouldn't change a thing.

Cat or not? Need your help on this one guys. Supposedly the car does not have one, but this sure looks like one to me. The car does need some exhaust work.

Other plans for the car are as follows:

T. Belt, W/P, Tensioner, new belts, exhaust with new mouting gear, M Tech II steering wheel, Euro Smilies, and a Zinno trunk lid spoiler.

Edit: I sent Patrick at BMA the same pic this monring and they are having difficulty coming up with an answer.

Needs more of a drop, take the spring pads out or get some Stg3s

**96 Cosmos** · 10-17-2006, 05:25 PM

My new favorite car on this forum.

Very Euro alright :D . Especailly to have no power windows but a power sunroof! Shorty after purchasing i had power windows retrofitted.
Your front spoiler looks great painted in body colour man.

I recommend Poorboy's SSR2.5 Then follow up with some EX and Natty's Blue. All from Poorboy's World products. :pimp:

Poorboys is good stuff, but the car is garage kept until the M3 comes home. Whenever that might be. This spring I will hit the Euro full force with some Poorboys

I can not imagine detailing w/o a PC.
