Well I woke the supie up after a small hibernation, figured I'd snap some better pics of the car with the new whale-tail.

Shaeff:
Thanks a lot dude! No sweat on the pics, the one you posted is good enough. I just wanted an idea of how they looked straight on, I have an idea cooking;) but that probably won't play out for a while :(

Kyle:
Thanks man!

SupraN/Asty:
I made them, on page 30 starting on post# 291 it shows some of the process.

Holy hell... I've been missing a lot!
1: Steering wheel looks absolutely hot mounted up!
2: That whale-tail looks great! I'm debating whether to run that, or go wingless... I've got bigger fish to fry before that though ;)
3: Good choice on the seats. I'm thinking about picking up a set of Recaro's that are just like that for my car, but again... bigger fish to fry yet.
4: Gimme your E30. I <3 it.

oh and PS: You may want to include which post # your intake mani process is on in addition to what page, because I changed the number of posts/page in my settings, and we're currently on page 8 according to me... lol

Thanks Kurt!
I personally don't care for the wingless look on these cars, kinda like that "mentally challenged" hair-cut look:biglaugh: But I have seen a few it looked ok on, (talking about the wingless cars not slow kid hair cuts).

Sorry, the E30 stays with me:biglaugh:

And thanks, I edited to include the post # ;)

lmao @ the "hair cut" reference! For real, I laughed out loud.... omg it's so true....
I figured it wouldn't look bad if i ended up doing a widebody...

damn about the E30. I do love those wheels...

Thanks, I'm going to repaint it the same silver that is on there now.

I did a little photo-chop to get an idea of how it will look with the bumper painted to match, not that great of a job on the chop, but it's good enough;)

Thanks, the moldings will stay black, I painted them and put a new rubber strip on them before I installed them. I like the look of the moldings blacked out (like on my bmw ;) )
