Brook-e30 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Quick update. I "smoked" the tails and indicators today using tamiya model paint, but ran out doing the tailights therefore arent as dark as was intending. I reckon it looks a hole lot better. What do you think? Tints are to come soon... Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazyarab 6 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Loving the wagon man, to be perfectly honest though I think you would be better off with the full red tail light look. My 2c. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brook-e30 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) I have done very little to the touring since i have owned it, other than maintenance. Am very interested at painting the centre of wheels, Decided to give them a tape up today (since im hopeless on photoshop) to give me a general idea to what it would look like. Would love to hear your opinions!? Any further Ideas?? Do you think it's better? Worse? Cheers Edited October 10, 2010 by Brook-e30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucan 196 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 IMO Paint the side skirts white before you do anything to the wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brook-e30 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2010 Over past week or so car has had a bit of a birthday. Which Means NEW engine! M20 2.5l Managed to score a wrecked 325i, for a good price, so salvaged the engine, did some maintanence while it was out, involving, Cambelt, oil filter, Thermostat, spark plugs, water pump and a few other things. Put engine in this weekend, and am noticing a big difference in Power . All though fuel consumption is killing me... Car also got some tints, 35% And a Fibreglass iS lip. Paint side skirts, and front lip tommorow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
