        Looking good Chris. Fresh DSchwarz is a beautiful thing.

        What's this about an E28?

              Looks beautiful. The only thing I don't like is the splitter on the front lip, how it comes out on the sides. Looks strange.

                Looks like it may be a tad more functional than the poseur one that most people are rocking on their iS lips . . .

                    Stop talking out of your ass Dave, we all know the iS lip plastic clips can hold like 90 lbs of t3h d0wNf0rC3Z afforded by thermoformed ABS sheet. :roll:

                        Which isn't what I said. I just don't really like the way it looks.

                          And if Langsten would drive this car as God intended and not just to tea parties at the Club, then we'd know that its there not so much for looks . . . 8)

                              "Jordan tucked tire in the front at over 90mph with his RyanG splitter on an iS lip!!!!"

                              Thanks for the compliments everyone.

                              Josh, the splitter is actually quite functional, we tested them on track cars, and when properly matched with an evolution rear wing it provides a noticeable difference. I couldn't justify springing $1200+ for an OEM Evolution adjustable wing at the time the car was painted... perhaps sometime in the future. It also helps protect the lip from dings/scrapes/scratches. It's a powdercoated Aluminum piece... so any little animal will be sliced in half before my car gets damaged. ;) *knock on wood*

                              Plumpt,
                              I have rainbow stickers in the engine bay... right next to a reserved spot for BlunTek logos.

                              The car will see the track before years end. I don't know where I'll be able to buy enough blue painters tape though??? ;)

                              Next up is installing the new center section/muffler.

                              Pasha-ding-dong - I tried to find some curvy mountain road where I could take pictures that are grainy with bad lighting, but it just wasn't happening... sorry man. ;)
