    Default Introducing My E34 - Update - Paint Pics Added

    Well, after owning my car for a bit over a month, Ive finally taken some time to snap some shots of the car in its stock form.

    Upgrades comming over the next few weeks (just waiting on shipping on a few things):
    Hella Smoked Tail Lights
    Hella Smoked Turn Signals
    Depo Projector34's + 5k Xenon
    Lamin-X Smoked Protection for Headlights
    Lamin-X Yellow Fog light protection
    Abrahms Motorsport Euro Trim
    EAT Chip

    More to come as the money comes in









    There are a few issues with the paint, this is after a brushless carwash and no handwax.... Next ones will be with a hand wax. Ill be posting some pics of the problems with the clearcoat on the roof and trunk. When I get the car color matched in the next month or two Ill have those fixed, but I do have some questions on what to do with the small scratches on the car and such... Ive heard of wet sanding and claybarring, but I dont know what they do..

    Mask the car out in Photoshop and add a light blur to the rest.

    I had read a faq on shock/spring combinations, but now I cant find it. My concern was that the Sachs kit would be a bit harsher than I was looking for in my daily ride. Ill have to figure out where I read it.
