Here's a few photos I had some time to edit in the last few months:

Beautiful car. A suggestion maybe, stove paint the muffler so it won't show as badly in side shots. Do you tuck front and rear?

Definately on my list of things to do. Thing that bugs me the most is it's not centered to the tip when you look at it from the back either.

Kevin got a shot of the R on 32nd St.

Thanks dude. I'm really happy with how the brakes fit up inside the wheels. I really want to get a solid caliper, but I can't/don't want to go bigger. I need to find something that matches with the same rotor size and that takes up similar space.



Didn't see you down there...

What were you riding around in?

I was in my recently put together E36, tried catching up to you on the strip a few times. Looked hard on the 19s

That brake fitment is so perfect.

The only thing I would change is finding a fixed brake caliper that would retain that fitment.

I'm siked to see this on the strip again

Oh and these ones are from a show at Castle In The Clouds in NH:

Headed down to OC, MD on Wednesday night. Leaving NH at midnight to get into town sometime around 9:30am. Really looking forward to seeing out of town friends and watching kids make dumb decisions.

Few photos from the last month or so:
