Well, after dealing with rain for a week or so its finally nice again! I decided to snap a couple pics of my e34 before I have to take the wheels off to get them refinished for the second time this month (long story). Excuse the poor pictures, they're from my droid. They actually turned out better than the ones I took w/ my p&s..

When I finally get everything situated again in a week and half I should have some 15/25 mm spacers F/R on and the car will be about an inch lower in the front . I also just got a great quote for a paint job so that will be next on my list. The body is going to stay original alpine white II and the matte black roof will be redone in bmw jet black to match the mirrors.

on to the pictars! the view you're seein is long beach and the port of los angeles. on a really clear day you can see all the way down to newport and laguna beach from my front yard.





And the wheel damage that has me really pissed off:



I got these m-parallels back from the auto-body shop about a week ago, they've been on my car driving around for a grand total of ~3 days before starting to flake. I'm dropping all 4 wheels off on monday to be re-done and I'm debating whether or not I want to have them sprayed silver again.. If anyone could w/ photoshop has some time I'd like to see the wheels in black and gunmetal.

Enjoy your snow guys, hope you're all keepin warm.

Car looks good but you're giving it more rake?

Clarify, please.

Archer

right now it sits just a tad higher in the front than in the rear. i'd like it to have a bit of rake, rather than the reverse rake i'm rockin right now. lol

Naptime

it looks like it sits even. The rear fender well is lower than the front and it makes it look lower in the rear.

I see. Sorry to hear about the wheels, though.

With new paint, suspension tweaking and the redone wheels, you'll have yourself a damn clean wagon. I like it.

akalei

Ooooo I really like that car.

I was hoping you'd be asking to photochop the top of the car white instead of black.

I am disappoint.

Archer

Sorry, I kind of like the two tone look.. I think it will be tons better when the roof is gloss black.

thanks.
