where the hell is the roundel?
Alusil, Dinan DME | ITG Air Filter | Eibach/Bilstein HD | 26/20 Swaybars | Iridium plugs | Depo/ProLumen HID | Optima batt. | no AC | Stoptech brake lines, Frozen rotors, brass bushings, Superblue
You shaved the roundel! :| Somehow, it makes the car look like a wrecker now
wrecker?
sounds kinda cool, but im guessn its a bad thing...
Wrecker.. you know.. those cars that nobody really wants and is just waiting to be scrapped or parted out?
The only reason I say that is because the back is just a blob of black. A roundel... a badge.. or even chrome exhaust tips would be good Again, that's just me. The smoke job IS very nice
Nice smoke job... now get the M5 plate surround, and get your roundell back, and loose the sticker
just my $0.02
now that looks really awesome. i thought about doing that, i'm glad to see somebody else experiemented, turned out great. i work at a plastics factory and have access to heaters, benders and plastic, but i can't get the original factory lens off, the glue is impossible to get out. anybody have any idea how to get the factory lens off? some sort of adhesive remover? i could make clear taillights/turnlight/parking lights and sell them for super cheap if i could just figure out how to get the old lenses off without cutting them out.
