My E92 Story

[Sspower]

Taking shape nicely

I think it would look cool to see the white part of the dishes on the wheels with the splash theme..
but non the less it looks really good so far

Howsit?

I thought about it but wasnt too sure it would look nice thou, scared if its crappy then i have to get new paint to re-do them, thanks il giv it some thought my good sir

I absolutely like the look and the work being done on the car.
shows dedication and perseverance goes a long way.

If i can offer some help on the respray, there is guy in Vereeniging called Orlando, runs a company called Redline.
I cannot begin to tell you the work he does, look him up on Facebook also, his work is some of the best ive seen, and i hear his prices are really good,

I have seen his uploads and he literally has taken a smash and totalled car back to new. give him a call.

its been a while since i updated as i have been busy, last weekend i went to get my front Windscreen replaced and i have to say i am happy with the results and service i received from BSG in downtown joburg

My Friend Mike(who hooked me up with a lockset earlier this year) sold me his DCT Paddleshift steering wheel from a E89, iv been begging him for months to sell it to me and he finally gave it for next to nothing, iv always been fascinated by paddleshifts and couldnt resist the temptation of plugging them in

old steering vs new

i will need to do a separate thread on how to connect these to your car if one needs assistance, its almost similar retrofit as normal paddles just some wires are different, i did a little video of the paddles after getting it wired right.
