Finally mounted m-tech 1 wing

looks great, now I want an Mtech I car... ;)

I really dunno which looked better. I'd go for the Zender just because it is different and it looks good, but that one really completes the look. Clean car, by the way.

I really liked the way the zender looked, however there were certain angles that made it look too bolt-on and un-factory. It will take a while for the black lip to grow on me, but it definitely looks more complete and original.

We need to do a Bellingham E30 shoot this spring/summer with the Bham Crew.

Definitely! There are so many nice E30s up here, it'd be great to get them all together for a shoot.

more pics

Took some pics, but it was too cloudy outside to show up well and I don't have a tripod. They'll suffice for now ;)

You guys got a foot of rain over there? Wow. We had almost 12 inches of snow, but damn, that rain's got to be pleasant.

And the car looks great. I think mtech1>mtech2. Let's see some daytime, full car shots.

Fantastic, I'm loving the completed look, and alpineweiss is such a good color.

Lookin' good Reid. It wasn't that hard was it??

Not at all...The wing was literally new in box, so it came with detailed mounting instructions (including nice measurement visuals for the drilling points), and all the OEM mounting hardware (double-sided tape, screws for the painted piece, and plastic nuts and sealing washers for the black trim piece. I had to slightly widen the holes I drilled to get it seated exactly in the right place, but other that it was very straight forward.

Part of me misses the old Zender spoiler, as it was more unique, but it is nice to complete the m-tech kit nonetheless. I'm gonna go wash her up right now and take some better pics.

Nah, he is not a car guy at all, just my best friend since first grade and I'm going to visit again. I love Charleston (on the good side of King St. at least).

Sorry to muck it up, I'll take this to PM's.

you know what i found out? metal polish is AMAZING on plastic like tail lights

I got this little tube of MAAS from the cleaning aisle in super walmart

That and a little abrasive wool pads do wonders.

Where are you in Charleston? I'll be there for two weeks into next year...my friend lives on James island, next to the matress warehouse that burned down...
