    I'd have to agree with this guy also, contrast in this car will be key.

    Its looks soooooo amazing already! That has always been a color that I wish to have in the future...Startec's look great, contrast looks good on that car.

      It would have the same contrast as any other M3 out there. Its not like he's asking to paint bumper trim. It came painted, I say it should be painted. It would look uber tacky if not.

        Paint one and have another that contrasts. Switch it up till you like one better.

            so, here are the updates from yesterday. I now am rockin 5 lugs front and rear!!!- at the same time, I cleaned up the oversparay under the car, and did a few other smaller things. Only had a few hours, It was a beautiful day, So I had to do the BBQ thing.


            So here we were, had the front end of the 4 lug dropped out. Damn it is so nice having a shop like this to work out of. An absolute dream!




            here is ME doing the fine little touch-ups in the engine bay. It is really to get to the hard to reach spots this way!




            here is the crappy little 4 cyl. waiting to go back in. Decided to keep away from the FIAT 1.1 Ltr. swap-- too much torque for me.




            Almost there. just a little lower, and its in. MMMMMMMMMMMMM yummy Becks is the Beer!

              Rainer rubbed a little bit of dirt on himself, and made me take a picture of him- just so it looks like he worked on it too!!



              here it is on all 4s soaking in some of them sun rays!!! looking mean already!
              NOTICE, THE TIRES are back on in the right direction.




              The other side, without the sunlight. It looks so high right now, but I am sure it will sink back to its correct ride height.



              here it is as it sits right now. the hood is just layed on there, wanted to se if there was any difference in the shade of color, but there isnt.... YEAH!





              Here is The owner of the shops van(Stephan's van, Mariano). Thought I would post a pic of it since its sitting infront of my house- a few too many beers last night, so he walked home. Its a camper with all the camping stuff in it. def. a different style.
              just thought I would post a pic of it for the VW dorks(j/k)
              BTW, its ALL PAINT on the van, no stickers!!!
              Gotta love the smoked hella e30 smileys in it!!!!

                  I love the look of it! I cannot wait to see all the molding/bumpers/lamps in. Plus it is making me really thirsty right now!!!
