    Too bad it's about 12 degrees F here today.. 'cause these pictures make me want to go out and work on my paint to get it shining like this. I've already got everything I need.. have had it for over a year.. but just need the time to do it. My daughter was born last April, so free time has been "unobtainium" - Here's the stuff I've got ready to go:
    Did you get all that stuff at one time, if so where? I've been meaning to get a Porter Cable for some time now, I think Lowes has the best price, but the pads you need to get elsewhere...it would be nice to get a whole package at one time.

    Considered painting the bumper mouldings etc on mine (alpineweiss), but after photochopping a pic, it just looked wrong...
    There's a silver E36 overe here with the mouldings painted, that looks wrong too...

    Yours however, actually looks alright! Fair play!
    There's only 2 tings I'd consider doing to yours now, 1 is to paint the door handles red too, the other would be to red-tint the rear indicators..
    ok, the second's not strictly legal, but I've never been pulled for mine yet in over a year (in the UK too - indicators must be orange)

    Overall - good job fair play!

    yeah i noticed that too, it's most likely not a perfect paint match but the light is also affecting it, shots i took from the other side that day look better.. i've resprayed the front lip since then, it doesn't hold up well to stone chips!

    anyway here's a 1400x1050 pic for rreimund
