Fresh piccies...

[JerseySi]

Been getting busy with the car the last couple of days, thought i'd share them with ya all
(Because it's always good to see pics of e34's, right?! That, and it gets my post count up!)



First off - I know it still looks rough - the white patchy bits are primer, not paint - hence the colour not matching (although for standard white primer, it's pretty close!)
There's still a lot of 'bits n pieces' left to do to the bodywork, lots of 'patches' on edges of bodywork where it's obviously been hit too hard with a buffing machine & compund, so it will need a total respray yet - but it's also my daily (& only) driver, and I dont have much 'spare' cash to throw at it, hence work's being done as & when & it gets driven around looking patchy for now..

next up clear tail lights, shadowline, and 20% window tint . rock on.

[Evan]

how about some 40% tint!

[JerseySi]

Have thought about clear tail-lights, and to be honest - I'd do it - if i could find some all-clear ones, but with the lights in the right place (if ya know what i mean - ie, not the new style "crystal" one or owt, just std but clear all over )
Shadowline being the chrome trim round the windows yea? I did it a while ago, but only with black tape - which is starting to peel off... Gonna spray them black next i think!
Tint? Will go for a 30% "light grey smoke" style - more than 30% and our local police will pull me & tell me to take it off (they're pretty strict over here)
