    Oh in no way am I saying it's a bad thing at all! I love the car period. It looks killer.

    It was really something. I just don't have money to spend on bigger spacers. Plus tucking suits my car better anyways.

    That being said, I like the car about 5 times more now and I'm super excited like a little girl.

    It turned out okay. It's just what I had, the gold was from my weaves and the red is the same as my car so yeah. I think silver with red would look nice too.

    I know. I liked the squrtle drawing especially. There are other things that make up for the ignantless wheels...

    Its been a while, but dont worry I have been working on the e28... A ton.
    Test fitted these. Liked them, bought them.

    They were pretty nasty, like really nasty. Max's ignant fangers even drew on em.

    Pokemon 1st gen baby.
    So I attempted to strip them. I used aircraft stripper, and reapplied like 3 times and even used a pressurer washer. It helped. but these wheels had such thick paint on em, and the shooters where hard to get into with stripper, so I gave up and sent em to armadillo for some sandblasting.


    All sandblasted.

    Paint time... We painted the whole thing gold at first (same color as my 15in weaves), them masked the shooter part, which sucked.

    red...

    Then I did some goofin and test fit with Alex's huge 50mm spacers.


    Hello poke. I loved it but it would require a lot for fender shenanigans. Good thing my car was so high...
    I traded my homie brandon some headlights and grills for some 15mm and 20mm spacers.
    It was time for low

    Cut sleeves. Dont worry, made em look nicer.
    Then I cut my super stiff jdm spring yo. 2 coils off.

    Set the car on the ground with the coils all the way down, 20mm spacer rear, 15 front. Golly Gee this happened.

    I about passed out. Litterally perfect. So close to the fender, but didnt rub and never bottomed out.
    But. It was too low. It took forever to even get the car off the rack. I didnt realize how much lower the 16s with 205/40 would take me. My exhaust was on the ground, no joke. Scraped while driving. Needless to say I was bummed, but it looked so darn nice.

    I just need to get my exhaust fixed. Ive been putting it off for so long, it has so many holes, sounds bad and hangs like 1in+ lower than my frame rails. I shold be able to go back to this amazing hieght once I get the exhaust sorted. For now, though, I raised my coils, pretty much as high as they go, just wanted to drive ja know?
    New ride height...

    Thats all.
