some pics..

[bmwrp8]

I just had my car repainted for a little less than $300. I just wanted to share some pics., sorry for the crappy photo quality though i'm using a camera phone. My digicam died last week when i accidentally dropped it in water in the beach:(
I ordered the ac schnitzer decal kit and will arrive next week:D i'll shoot some more photo's when it's done.. i'll use my brothers digicam this time.

what are the little holes for in the bumpers? Did they do a clear coat over the white? 300 wont even get you the paint here let alone the clear.

the bumpers are ac schnitzers and I left the acs imbeds black. Yes, they sprayed clear coat also:)

That about £700 per month? You can get a house for that in the UK provided you dont need to eat

I got mine soo dirt cheap because the shop owner is my neighbor and he was asking for help that if i could give him some customers from bmw club. But usually washover paint here goes around $400-$700. all with clear top coat.sanded and wheeled

My wife and I just spent two weeks there. Half in Manila and half in the province. Its true that labor and housing is cheap but gas and food is about the same.

I wonder if you could help me bring a couple of E34s into the country? A container to RP is not too expensive but I am afraid the amount to pay off someone to make cars legal is more than I can afford. Is it doable?

yup, i emailed you but i guess it was late already:) Yes i can help you bring it here but honestly i don't recommend bec. sometimes taxes cost more than the car itself..thats why even if labor is cheap here cars are expensive.. an 1989 525i is around $6500-$7000. But email me the details and i'll call some customs people.

buy used already there, import not feasible in the common sense.

yes but taxes for cars are 200%
