  1. Its more for other road users. When you pull up next to another car at an intersection, hes going right your going left, you look through his cars windows to help watch for a space and he looks through your windows etc. When in a passenger car and you pull up next to a van/truck/4x4 you are lower then their windows and so there is no visibility, so putting signage on this type of commercial vehicles windows is not going to change visibility for other road users, it only hinders reversing and blind spots for the driver. Weird though.


  2. Shelly. I looked at your auction. You should space out or use “325i†in your auction as a lot of searches will skip M325i. Also take a picture from the front and use it as the main shot, seems they get more attention that way. Good luck with the sale, I have only had encouragement that these cars are worth a fair amount of money to some people so dont discount it.

    Can you tell I dont want to sell it, lol. At least having it on trademe makes it look like Im trying to get my own 4x4 so it doesnt look like im going to use my dads forever hahaha. Stops him from getting too annoyed.


  3. I bought something off sella, the seller never contacted me, not even to give out their contact info/bank number. I was pissed because I couldn't find that particular item anywhere else. Sella didnt have a help service. Its very blazze'


  4. Hey all,

    looking at buying this.. Link was woundering if anyone has gone and seen it or know of its condition.. im in auckland so will be buying it sight unseen..

    cheers for any help..

    Ben

    What's your budget for a pre-facelift M325i?


  5. I'm surprised you use water when wrapping. Is that 7725 or 900series? Got to love those paint protection film squeegees but cant say I've used them when wrapping a car though, is that why you use water?

    How long did it take you to wrap your grill? Tedious work that is :)


  6. ^ Cheers man, WOF this Friday, then I will put some decent pics up after a decent cut and polish.

    Dedication, more like perfectionist :blink:

    Don't polish before striping. And don't cut after striping. Use a tooth brush to get the polish out from the edge of the striping if you polish after ward.


  7. ^ Haha thanks Shelley, don't have much to lose. Maybe I should try finding something slightly fatter, thanks for the tips though.

    How hard can it be? :P

    Unfortunately fatter will make the bends harder. There's no easy way about it mate. lol!


  8. Good luck dude, not even I would attempt to replicate those stripes from a 6mm pinstripe roll! Get your ruler out and start marking off points to follow. I would also be drinking a couple of bottles first, combat the shaky hand syndrome.

    Biggest tip when playing with such thin pin striping is to put very little pressure on the tape as you will stretch it and it will not go back to 6mm once stretched, which will mean you will have to remove the whole stripe and start again, unless you want an ugly join in the tape.

    If all fails you know where I am with nice computer cut, application taped one piece graphics :P
