  • my mtech2 bmw e30

    i'll just rob the posts off another forum

    painted my mirrors as they were corroded and the paint was badly flaking. Used water based paint.



    sanded down







    ecth primed then whited primed







    basecoat







    lacquered and on the car, that's the finish from the gun







    no wonder my car is always scraping and it burst the sump! wait till i can get some 16's!







    startin on the rusty wing and front and back bumpers on monday.

    ok got my back bumper off and a slight crease filled







    and primed





    and a brand spankin new genuine bmw wing...







    also happy with how solid behind the bumper is





    ok bit of an update, got the wing sprayed. boss man sprayed it one evening cos he was goin away for a week so i wouldn't get a chance to spray it myself. needs to be done again to blend it into the door but it'll do for now. didn't bother doin the bumper as we said we'd do the lot at the same time, i'm preppin the front bumper now myself at home for the week.

    basecoat


    wing off


    and on



    well the cars finished. i didn't spray it myself as the shop owner was in a rush to get it out cos he was busy and i didn't wanna chance messin it up after all the prep work i did!

    anyway here's a load of pics, i'm very happy with the car now. just want different wheels. and a better engine.






















    ok tried on my non spoiler bootlid, i like it, nicer flow to the car!



    just want proper wheels for it now and a proper engine. thinkin wide 16s and a 3.0 m3 or a dirty datsun!!

      So fresh, so clean.

      White E30s are hot as hell especially when freshly painted! Did you forget to paint that boser!?

      Wide 16s will look great, but you could easily go with some wide 17s. Take a look at the Showroom section, there was a white E30 fitting 8,5 and 10x17s properly!

                    I love the style wheels on it. Get the Style 32's and smaller tires then slam it... Done

                          It's always nice to have a paint shop when doing that sort of work...
