Gave my car a quick wax:

Add black sticker decals to the BMW emblems and also covered the side reflector with black vinyl. I find using an inlay is better because I might have to remove it.

Decided to try a new look, the "hellasunk" look.

Woke up yesterday morning to a flat tire, swapped it out for my donut, which just happened to be flat as well :okay:

Then my friend came to the rescue and lent me a full size spare he had laying around :fullofwin:

PlastiDipped my wheels. It didn't take too long and I think it looks pretty good. Eventually I will get them powdercoated.

Just got a bunch of goodies in. ASR 32 mm rear swaybar, Hawk HP+ front and rear pads, new OEM style rotors, speed bleeders.
And my OEM bushings from Honda has been shipped and should be here this week so I can get them installed and then do an alignment and get the car ready for Packwood.

Murphy's law took effect while I was swapping my Blackvue from my beater to my new car. Got distracted while doing so and was playing around with the touch-up paint pen and proceeded to spill some of the paint on my shorts and passenger seat. Shorts I don't care about but my seat... sure they're stock seats but interior was nearly flawless until I fcked it up. Now there's a 1" wide red paint stain on it but strangely enough it looks like a heart. Made my gay car even gayer.. :okay:

firebird79_00 06-11-2012 03:37 PM

Painted the coolant hose, brace and shock caps. The red actually is quite a bit darker and has a metallic flake in it. Camera couldnt pic it up

2 turbos and a 4.4 v8 will respond pretty damn well to any mod lol

SumAznGuy 06-22-2012 10:43 PM

Installed HP+ pads on both F+R as well as flushed the brakes and installed speed bleeders.
Attempted to install my ASR rear swaybar but managed to GG'd one of the mounts so I will have to fix that when I have free time.
I also GG'd one of the tires, but lucky for me I was gonna swap tires in preparation for next weekend's autoX.

Harvey Specter 06-23-2012 05:51 PM

Picked up my car today, my buddy Mike L @ Autowest did the paint/install. Spoiler really transforms the awful front end of the 750i, I went with the Alpina lip because the m sport bumper didn't make money sense.
