Guest Spargo Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Countless write-ups on R3v, it's fairly involved, but fairly easy. Have you tried $tealer? They might have some old stock... You could just steal it, but for a 4dr, i dunno where... perhaps next time tim is in town? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Napier_E36 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2004 yeah it would do - i like the sound of that! black spray paint would be the "back yard ruffin it" method!!! haha but that sounds sweet! :mosh: (esp with tinted windows....) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MYSTRO 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2004 ive done a few e30s at work and found that using vinyl works well, as in signwriting vinyl it looks alot nicer than paint i used flat black insteed of gloss black it goes well with the window rubbers etc and looks tidy and proper...
