fingers crossed I stick with it. doubt I will, but I'm pretty set on the grey black Porsche RS color. .... looks good on this E90



Thats a long ways away though.

overexposed to make the black pop.


The outer kidney is piano black (wet gloss) inside is flat black and the grills are matte 3k finish.

I wish I had the time too haha. I'm often in the garage drinking coffee late at night trying to do it all.

I'm still grinding and welding the back. Trying to keep from dropping welds on the new tires

Hey man not sure where you are from but the shop next to mine runs a business restoring, building, and tracking old BMW's just like this. They are called Sports Car Restorations or SCR. I am not sure if they have a website but deffinitly check them out, they do some crazy work. From simple restores to full builds. With parts to build 50 of these BMW's in these shop. Just thought that maybe if you needed help finding parts of whatnot they can prolly help you out
