My '73 Roundie Revival [BMW 2002]

[seven-57]

None whatsoever, I'm learning everything as I go, which is probably why it's taking me so long.

That definitely makes me feel better. I've been thinking about doing separate fenders for my e30. Where did you find the mk1 fenders? Awesome read btw. It's builds like these that will make me never subscribe to magazines haha

lol it doesnt look bad, just bag it primer it call it a day lol until you can do a proper paint job

Nah I'm gonna do it right the first time and give it real paint before I call it a day haha I have too much work into it to just settle on anything less.

The primer is just rattle can, it looks like shit because I already started sanding some of it towards the rear of the fender.

Made some more progress on the fender. After hours and hours of hammering, filling and sanding, I primed it up and am happy to say that it's getting there. haha. It still needs quite a bit of work, but it's progress and I'll take anything at this point.

Are you going DS on the 02 paint as well? Great idea using the other car as practice.

I haven't decided 100% on what color the 02 is going to be. Right now my top choice is VW's toffee brown which I've seen on some mkvi jettas and the new beetles.

this '02 is sweet. I can't wait to see this finished. I am going to own a modified '02 in my life.

[CubbyChowder]

I am thinking about building them up. 7.5j rear and 7j up front. Are you still looking for a set?

I would be interested in a set but I could only offer trades at this time. I would trade you my 16x9.5 3pc Epsilons if you were willing to put some cash on top. They're 4x100 correct? PM me if you're interested in making a deal.

Nice work, the fenders are turning out really nice.

If you haven't thought about it yet, I'd really recommend picking up a 'shrinking disc' along with the hammer and dollies. It should help to fix the area's the hammer can't.

Thanks I'll look into that!

i am jealous of your patience, and your 02, and your steelies lol good job sir.

Haha thanks dude

Its my twin! you even have the I lip...lol

Should have an IS lip :rofl:

Haha I know I was a little bummed it didnt have the IS lip, but I'll be getting one before I repaint the car so I can color match it
