Yes! I think quality of paint job or lack of quality of paint job may add some style points in the competition, in my eyes it could go either way, I could see a full councourse level pink wheel restore as helping but then again I can see a full alley job pink wheels with pink tires helping...we'll have to leave this up to the distinguished panel of judges.

Deagle,

somedays it seems you may actually know a thing or two about cars but from your latest posts I'm guessing your not too well versed in Aristotles poetics. Here's a quick lesson. The basis of drama is conflict. Through out the ages people have sought out good stories as a form of entertainment and enlightenment. Therefore people seek out conflict and the resolution of conflict.

In creating this conflict it is important to realize the audience you are telling the story to, here at R3V your audience is gear heads that like to read and see pictures of wrenching.

Story one.

A man with an orange M3 paints bottle cap's pink, jacks up car and installs 5 lug bottle caps, lowers car and drives off.

Story two

A man with a orange M3 paints bottle cap's pink, puts car on jackstands and struggles to do the first R3V documented 5 lug to 4 lug swap, he spends multiple hours trying to get it to work...Can he pull it off???

Everyone has their preferences, but I'm guessing in the end the four lug swap would win the story contest, It's not about convenience, it's about pulling your audience in.

Is it just me or are there no MODS in this thread? Could this be too much for them to watch over.

Have the official rules, guidelines, and participants been posted yet?

PLEASE use some masking tape... fuck cut a hole in some newspaper or something but please dont just grab a can and start spraying.....call me old fashioned but if anything is worth doing its worth doing RIGHT even pink bcaps

plus it looks funnier if its done that way bc that way people know it was INTENTIONALLY done otherwise it looks like some pranksters painted your wheels pink while you were at work or some shit.

[Mike325]

Haha, oh man. These are looking good. I will pick up some pink paint tomorrow and throw the b-caps on. Hahahaha. This is going to be an interesting week.

I think pink on black would be a great color combo. Expecially with my 90mm stud kit.

[kellie]

not like that, im married so he knows im not gay

That doesn't mean a thing. ;)

I think rainbow colored roundel centercaps would look cute.

[BDSax]

not like that, im married so he knows im not gay, but other people may......... if thats that case, ill just blow them a kiss.

[kellie]

hahaha, man i got so many looks today. My dad was the funniest when he opened the garage door to leave for work, "WHAT THE HELL?!?" (hes old school)

I just LOLed. I wonder what went through his mind when he first saw your wheels. I bet he was extremely concerned.

[FredK]

Hahah BD!

oh, sorry, I didn't use Watermelon.. I used some pink flourescent paint...

[FredK]

Um, wow. Hey, Watermelon is a pretty good shade after all!

Yes, you have until Monday-ish to get your wheels painted. It's not too late to enter! Just let me know that you're actually in the contest though.

BTW is the red car in the garage a 535is ldsbeaker? Can't say I've ever seen one of those in that color in the US... Looks pretty hawt.

Yes, it is an "is". It was repainted by the prior owner in October '06.. Fire engine red. It used to be diamond schwarz... :( I guess that was more important than all of the botched maintenance that he did, or the maintenance he didn't do.. (sigh) Almost done, should be off the jackstands in about 2 weeks.

[JamesE30]

Done, Sir, Done!!

Wow. I just have to say, that has to be the nicest paint job i have ever seen!
How did you achieve such perfect masking??
I take my hat off to you good sir, and hope that maybe one day, i too will be able to create such a master piece!

Have an excellent time for the next week.
That is a truly awful AWFUL colour combination.
I salute you.

[gearheadE30]

Haha thats amazing. If I had bottles I would join, but alas, I don't....
