Cant go wrong with zinc plating.. will look great against the BrilliantRot also

Thank you for your opinion. I should be done with this year on running. If you want to test drive my e30? Let me know. I have only a handful of bmw hard core enthusiast I will let them drive my red e30.
I moved the red e30 away from my old tree. I have so much of time and money in the red e30. About four years ago a big branch broke off. Lucky the was no car underneath.

Looking good Luis!

Thanks Simon.
I would like your opinion on my zink platting?
I was able to see a liter zink plating on a Porsche 911 for a shop here in Fallbrook. They do restoration on old 911’s.

I was able to wire my side markers. I still need to wire my city lights.

I was able to wet sand front fender. It came out very good. I started to polish the side skirt. I realized the passaged skirt was never wet sanded. I also wet sanded it. I bought a Big kid block’s sanding blocks to get straight panels.
I was going back to silver e30 to prep Hartge wing. It has a lot small cracks on it.

I been still working on my red Barron. I’m trying to finish on paint. I had to redo my front passenger fender to paint. On the edge of fender when I was wet sanding went through to primer.

Today I was glad to finish intake. I need a new Hartge badge. I will install maybe Tuesday.. Once I finish engine bay. Put the e30 back together. While I was waiting on pain to dry. I was working on the silver e30 to sand on body.

While I was waiting on paint and primer to dry. I went on silver car to sanding.

On Friday I took off the intake to repaint. I bought a can to help remove the old paint. I still had to use wire brush on my drill.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I pulled the valve cover off to sand to polish and paint. It came out fine for me. I also pulled the intake off to paint.
I was able to polish Hartge strut bar. I hope this Saturday I can take my parts to get cad plating and get my OZ bolt chromed.

On my e30 hood I want to cad plate the rear bracket .I paint them the bracket it will scratch the paint. At least the cad plating will last longer. I found a place not to far from me in Oceanside.
I might starting to remove s38 valve cover to paint and polish fins and also intake this week

These are the parts I want to cad plate and hard ware.

I started to fit the front end. I’m waiting on hardware to get things bolted up. I missed placed the original hardware.

I got to do painting in engine bay. It did not come how I wanted. It looks better in my opinion. I want to cad plate some parts and bolts in yellow zinc.

[e30m3s54turbo]

I wish I knew how paint years ago. I would have liked to paint the engine bay before I installed the s38. It was a pain in the ass to install with tranny bolted to it. I did it all by self. Now I’m trying to paint engine bay. I will be welding e30 vert braces to strut towers.

While I’m waiting on red Barron to dry and wet sand. I started in silver e30 project. I took pics of dents with blue tape marking area for reference.
