Ask and ye shall receive

[AC Nico]

yeah where are the updates? :mrgreen:

[Rich@GTBPerformance]

Whoa holy cow we are back.

Car is almost done painting, going to have some pictures for you guys soon!

[Rich@GTBPerformance]

Updates?

Sorry I've been out of town for a few days, plus the holidays have made things a little hectic.

Unfortunately when the body kit arrived we found out it was a fake. A fiberglass reproduction. I have attempted to contact the seller but he is not getting back to me.

Quite disappointing to say the least...

Oh well, the search continues.

News update.

Body kit was just picked up from England and is on it's way over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rich@GTBPerformance]

Oh and for shits and giggles, here is one of my old cars

[Rich@GTBPerformance]

So the car's been stripped and is half naked in the paint booth.

Here are some of the shots from the booth with the rust cut out and repaired.






A fair bit of crud collected in that window crevasse.. gotta get that out of there!

And finally, body kit will be here next week after much arguing with my shipping company.

TNT International. I run a business for late model BMW parts and i use them for all my international shipping. It just so happens they pick up :)

Anyhoo, it got delayed. Should be being picked up this friday.

Well, there you have it. I guess being in a business where international shipping is something you deal with regularly, you'd have the resources to make something like that happen. Pretty awesome that something that size in the UK can be in the States over a weekend! Waiting for the updates...:)

So I have to ask... how does one get a full body kit from England to New Jersey, over a weekend? Seems that the only way I can think of would be a piggyback ride on a military flight... which is totally acceptable. Just stuck out in my head, after I read it... seemed pretty incredible!

Body kit is being picked up in England tomorrow morning. It will be at Guten by Monday!

Hopefully paint will be done by the end of the week!

Get your car detailed. I smell a photo shoot coming up very soon. Let's see if we can't land ourselves in Roundel or Eurotuner/European Automobile.

That would be pretty cool! Both the M techs in one place, both done up by Guten.
