I haven't posted on Acurazine for awhile since I gave my CL-S to my youngest brother as a graduation present from college. I posted pics of my old modded 330Ci and I got great feedback. I've since sold that car (i've got pics of it still if you guys want to see it), and I have an 06 E55 AMG and an 04 M3 as my current project. I'm posting up some pics of my M3 to see what you guys think.

I JUST got the car out of the paintshop, someone keyed it up in a parking lot and wrote a bunch of profanity deep into the paint. I have a CSL trunklid and a carbon fiber front lip that aren't installed yet (this weekend!). Also, don't make fun of the 4x4 look too much, I have JRZ coilovers and a Supersprint catback exhaust still to install -and next month a HPF turbo kit

It's a custom blue from House of Kolors with a blue pearl ice in the paint. You can't see the pearl ice since it wasn't bright enough and i'm not good at using this new Olympus E500 digital SLR camera. (pearl ice, for those of you who don't know is finely crushed glass..a dust, thats blended into the clear).

7 layers of paint and 5 layers of clear went on the car. You can really see the pearl ice in action between the light and shade...the car really changes color!

Well, here ya go, what you guys think so far.

When I first bought the car: (Beater M3)



After the paintwork, 95% finished, still needs another wetsand and a few things to be installed

Nice M3, but this belongs in car talk under the off topic section. Please repost it there.
