Those TSW's are fucking awesome! How old are they?

Ha, thanks. They're 15" x 7" TSW Ventura wheels. I actually found the receipt from the place that installed them back in November 1992, they retailed for $168 per wheel. I also found the actual TSW wheel model brochure with those Ventura wheels featured in there.

Here's my E30 last year with tucked and painted diving boards. The huge oil stains on the driveway are not from my car. :D

Dude the wavy bumper surrounds suck. I use to have that shit and it made me angry every time I looked at em. Or my eye could be deceiving me, I'm not sure.

It looks better sans W123 high beams.

I think tucking bumpers with air dams are awesome. Made my front look ver slick.

Here's mine.

my 86 eta, tucked and painted

I definately like the newer bumps, then I'd go euro, after that I'd say leave as is for safety reasons but I must say yours do look awesome.

Why doesnt someone get there thinking cap on and build a shock that would still be functional/provide the safety while at the same time tucking them in....is this possible?

Here's mine with untucked diving boards, maybe it will be of some inspiration... (looks interestingly like my sig....)

remove the bumpers, dont remember the brand of etching primer, any brand as long as its "self etching" will do, sand the bumpers very well i used 400 grit, you could go a bit more coarse if you wanted, clean the bumpers with rubbing alcohol, spray 2-3 coats of primer, and the 3-4 coats of paint, and voila!

[Joey Link]

oh and i used lots of self etching primer, this is important with alum.. and the krylon texured rattle can paint

What brand was the primer? Can you list the steps you took in order? Not sure if you're supposed to remove the bumper and paint them, paint them before you tuck them, etc. I appreciate the details; I want mine exactly like yours.

im telling you, FBIs gotta get on that.
