    Jamie's not the only one with a detailer for a friend! ;)

    My friend works full time for a dealership, as a detailer. He "owed me one" and is now definately even. Anyone who had seen the seperation of paint color between the front and rear know my car was almost red/pink. But now it looks all red, except the rear bumper and mirrors. But awesome.




    DURING. Trunk was buffed some, side was not. Notice?

    You can see where he missed some, between the letters, and some other portions.











    The difference is really surprising, and I am very thankful. I do plan to respray the undercoating, and even have the spray can.

    Oh, and I'm going off to school, and my car isn't coming with me, so no more pic whorin'. :P

          Looks nice, is it original paint?

            Jidging by the front of the car and the rear being different colors, I would say the rear portion of the car is original but the front portion has been resprayed.

              hey man, thanks for posting your new 3, it inspired us to take action on my paint.

              The rear 1/2, roof is original paint. The front, hood, doors were repainted after a PO accident. (yeah, what he said.....while I was typing this)

              I let him drive it as part of thanks, and he definately wants an E30 eventually. Also, I noticed a lot more people checking it out on the roads now that it is cleaned up/waxed up.

                  :stupid: Come on Rob, fix that damn thing. And don't give us that "dents give it character" speech.

                        I have to talk to Jamie's friend ASAP. My car is basically like yours was.

                        Amazing. It'll make good with all of the other cosmetic mods I've done and give me a reason to pic whore. :P
                        The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

                            I dunno really. Some wax, some buffing, some claybar I think.

                            That Suzuki is one of our friend's. (Fucking spolied brat :P )

                              Ah, I see...

                              Rob, you haven't by chance been at any of the USGPs have you?

                              Thought I saw your car maybe once at the Hoosier CCA shindig they have at the F1 race there...maybe not though.
