you can't just use the screws that hold on the plate mount to hold on the trim? looks good regardless.

holes dont line up with any thing, but i got things figured out, im just gonna run the US plate and just use the screws at the bottom.

Glad to see this thing completed... ish. Looks great, that's one helluva maaco paint job and the price reflects it. Mine's getting resprayed later next year and I might have to check out a maaco.

BTW got new pics with the lip extensions on the car... took a good photoshoot today, will post pics tomorrow.

Kamorors needs a 5sp swap.

Why not get a BMW license filler plate?

uhh, i know its obvious, but you know that one side is supposed to slip under the other side to keep is nice and tidy, if you trimmed off the piece that goes under, that would be why yer having this issue.

Hey dude, I think your car's looking good in its new paint job. And that's the first time I've seen bottletop rims look good on anyone's car! Not fond of the splitter, but each to their own.
Oh, and I'd be a little pissed at them missing that 'ping' on the driver's door. I have them appear everytime I park somewhere; they drive me nuts!
A question, not being American I 'm puzzled by this Maaco paintjob. What the hell is Maaco?

P.S. Think your area looks cool. Reminds me of the old cowboy films.

thats how it is installed, i trimmed the top piece because it was about 1/2" too long it if you look at the pics you can see that they tuck right, they just dont stay down. i got the licence plate frame on yesterday and it looks like it used to. I was looking forward to no front plate but oh well now its normal.

That is no ping, i went and i couldn't find it, the shadow in that pic is from my dads jeep, and that is just one of the loops on the roof rack luckily.:)

ya man car is loooking really good.

Looks great - especially for a Maaco job. Not a bad price, either. You would have paid twice that anywhere else.

Go to your local hardware store and pickup some push-in black plastic fasteners if you want to ditch the front plate. They're available in dozens of shapes and sizes. If they don't have them, check with an auto glass shop or an upholstery shop.

suns not up yet, but i am.


at least my house is green

de-textured front valances look good.

i put hood seals around the grill so that top line of the euro grill goes on a little longer

i guess the car is done untill i get some more money, than its 5spd and wheels.

[bimmer_E30]

i love it man.

:P

The car is coming along nicely; like was said before, it makes bottlecaps look good for some reason. That red looks pretty good. What are your future plans in general with the car?
