awesome^ prep it good.

Actually the only prep im doing is striping the parts off for paint. My trusted friends shop will be doing all the body work and prep. He owes my dad 300$, but he wants to paint my car instead. :) Free paint jobs FTW

sound cool, same color?

[E30_Pare]

yup. however instead of original single stage factory paint jobs there will be a clear coat added.

Delphins have clear coat from the factory. Other colors don't, but the metallics do.

I just got my delphin repainted. I paid a bit more than $300 though hah.
Your car is looking good and is making a much quicker transformation than mine ever did.

Oh really? Didn't know that about metallics. I thought they were all single stage paint jobs.

I love your car. I want to do euros, but I want to find a zender valence first to complete the look. It has been a good 7ish months since anything major has been done to the car, but I just got it running perfect so that is all i'm worried about now.

When my m10 dies an m30 or bigger will be taking its place. This car will be staying in the family much longer than expected. :) To think we almost got rid of it a few years back to goodwill....
