    My 325is project...

    Hey, picked up this alpine 1989 325is not to long ago as a DD, i havent decided exactly what my plans are for it yet other than suspension and eventually some wheels i will probably be doing a lot of small mods at first until i can get some funds. Im also open to suggestions. Hopefully i will be updating as much as possible with lots of pics enjoy!:p

            You should consider properly hitting those tails with clearcoat so they come out nice and shiny, instead of hazy.

            There is a good DIY with solid directions on how to properly perform the job.

              yeah, i did use clear coat but probably not enough and in the picture it is still a little wet.
              all see how it turns out tomorrow and if it needs some more coats then all then all add them.

                            I don't know what this tape is, but I'd like to try it before paint I do believe.....looks like the car is going in the right direction!

                              Seems like it would last better then paint. P.O. painted them on my car and it looking like shit. Looking into this tape for sure.
