    Default almost finished my car

    ok guys, about a month ago i had a little fender bender, so i decided to change the entire image of my E34
    the car was oxford green metallic and it got kinda boring to me, so this was the perfect opportunity for a makeover
    i got an M5 front bumper, clear corners, clear side repeaters,( still have to buy the clear tails).
    I got a set of 17" AC Schnitzer typeII rims (was going for 18's but here in trinidad theres 10% smooth roads and 90% potholes lol)
    i had 3 choices of color that would match the interior (pargament leather) red, white or black, guess what? i opted for black, the car was painted today and was baking when i went to see it.
    hmmmmm 3 coats of clear really does make the black look deeeeeepppp lol
    hoping to have it back by this weekend so i could take some pics if anyone is interested

    It is good to have friends with talents. A new paint job is a big investment and you want it to turn out right. We are all looking forward to seeing the pics and we are all jealous already.
