    Very nice!

    Would look better if you change the heart color to LSB.

    Do you still have the Atlas 4 door?
    I was thinking of the white coupe with shaved VR6 bay. Looks like that might be the same car?! Such a transformation! Just always remember your mk2s being proper and great attention to detail.

    I don't have the atlas GLI anymore. Sold it to get my e36. I sold it to a friend, but its been through a few owners since. Makes me not want to sell any of my cars in the future.

    more pics of the girl in the boots

    the wheels dont look that great in pics, but its the effect that they give off in person that makes them dope. i can imagine they prob look pretty cool when the car is in motion. only thing wrong is the cars color.

    Thanks! I think car of the year is quite a stretch, but thanks nonetheless.

    No worries!

    It's a nice car. I like the finish on the wheels - unique and it looks good. Would rather see the effort go in to something a bit more supportive of the automotive aftermarket though.
    Haha, well Mike; JDM inspired wheels, air ride (or even anything over a 1" drop for that matter), shiny gold, carbon fiber for cosmetic instead of weight reduction, excessive negative camber, stretched tires yada yada yada. At least, that's what BMW guys keep bitching to me about.

    And thanks - what exactly are you wanting to see? It might already be part of what I have planned for the next stage this spring

    I wouldnt have done it to an m3 though, it must handle like ass compared to standard
    Thanks guys. It actually handles better than my H&R coils.. no lie. The Airrex system is a threaded shock all the way so it allows me to have a ton of adjustment for placing of the bag, and they are also 12-way dampening adjustable. It's all about knowing what air pressure to run in the bags too for optimal performance. I was pretty surprised at how they handle, to say the least.

    Thanks! Yep, just vinyl, it doesn't look super great but it accomplished the look I was going for

    I remember seeing this for sale when I was buying my car, i remember how clean the paint is!
    Haha, do it Yep, I decided to keep it and dump another 8K into it instead. I'm glad I didn't sell it.

    Love the fitment, not sold on the wheels. I'd love them to bits if they were all white, or if they were all gold. It's excellently executed though
    Thanks! I have had gold centers on a previous set of wheels, as well as all white, but I wasn't sold on either.. This current look did it for me

    Yeah, I actually thought people would be a little more harsh haha

    looks good to me. i like the front lip a lot. whats the story with the suspension? Im curious as to how she looks when you turn the wheel. or is this on air..
    Thanks man. I'm on Airrex bags and V2 management. But, this is where I sat before air when I was on H&R coils (different tire & camber specs back then):

    I like the wheel choice but I am not a fan of the stickers, I think that they would look cool with just the gold bolts.
    No worries, that would look pretty cool actually.
