So you think they will see me hit the cone, or will it be camouflaged?

New paint job is sweet!

that's a mighty metal looking convertible.

From the looks of the tailpipes it's a Z4M Coupe.

Just like that Porsche, you need black wheels.

Maybe also black around the windshield and black mirrors. Maybe?

But I like it a lot. Original FTW.

Did you paint the underside of the hood/trunk/doorjams too? How much was the paint job?

samnavy 10-24-2007 08:33 AM

Aren't they going to sell that with the 335i TT engine here shortly? I've got a buddy with a 335i coupe and he's looking into some mods. I haven't done the research, but a reflash for some extra boost and fuel +WI seems like the ticket on that thing.

seriously. I dig the orange with black wheels. Every time I see that color gt3rs, which is every time I go to MSR, it makes me cry.

Its no show paint job. I seriously going to auto-x this car and mess up the paint.
I did toss the idea of black wheels, like them. any idea what black powercoating would cost?

it's better to just buy new rims in black than to powdercoat your stockers-i paid like 75-80 a wheel for my SVT's rims, :td:

hustler 10-25-2007 11:25 PM

I payed $$$ to powdercoat wheels a few years ago. Then I started spraypainting them. My bronze wheels look fine with 2 years on them. I'll never pay $$$ again to change wheel color.
