My car has been MURDERED! :evil2



I know guys.. it's a little overdue.. but here are some quick pics. I need to actually clean the car and take some better pics. Plus, I think I'm gonna put some spacers on the back to fill the gaps completely.

Enjoy! (or not)

Early this morning.

NICE! You need all black roundels for wheels, hood, and trunk like I have now *not the ones in my sig*

I'm in, although I will only be modestly murdered.......so I guess that's "left for dying".

Dangerous looking, like soviet secret police!

I'd get some window tint and do your fog lights, thank Redfive for that trick. Also nightshade or something on your clears and paint your headlight rings. Looking good so far.

Well, besides the things I've painted black that have yet to go back in the engine bay, I have a blackout kidney set on the way, and my headlight rings are off and I'm cleaning/prepping them for paint at the moment. So...I'm getting there, considering that my car isn't running yet. :stickoutt

Yea... I need to get some black decals to cover the blue parts.. I couldn't find the 58mm roundels in black anywhere. The MK centers are silver, so I didn't think that would look right.

Yea.. MK1s. One of my favorite wheels of all time


nice man, specs?

Thanks.

Nice.. I like that idea. I may have to do that this weekend while I'm installing the spacers. Me and Jeff have been trying to hook up for a while now.. but he's down south.. someday hopefully.

The fronts are 235/40 and the rears are 265/35. I may try running 275's in the rear when it comes to changing them out. But we'll see how it fits after I put the spacers.

A few suggestions:
M5 plate filler (I'd like to see this painted gloss black if you wish)
Paint front lowers
Paint brake calipers black
Chrome exhaust tips (factory BMW part)

I know.. I've just been extremely busy with my new job and all.... That's why you guys don't see me on here much anymore. No computer access during the day. You know I'm down for a shoot.

A few suggestions:
M5 plate filler (I'd like to see this painted gloss black if you wish)
Paint front lowers
Paint brake calipers black
Chrome exhaust tips (factory BMW part)

I'm not to big on getting a filler plate, basically cuz it's black already. But if I can score one pretty cheap, I'm sure I can convince myself to get one. :stickoutt. I have something planned for the front bumper, but basically, yes, it will be painted. I have some 750il brakes awaiting install that I will PC gloss black when it's time to replace the brakes (probably after summer or so). And the exhaust is gonna get overhauled soon too.

random idea....paint exhaust w/ black rustoleum


yea.. I think I'll do that for now so it doesn't look too horrible.

Man i'd be scared to pull next to that car... don't want to get shot at.

It was worth the wait. It turned out as expected aside from few touch up.

Looking good! Take some black spray paint and coat your fender-wells.


I agree ^. But instead of regular spray paint, use the actual underbody paint you can purchase at local Orchards (dunno if Home Depot carry them) or auto part stores. I forgot the brand but they are spray paint that leaves a rubbery and textured finish. Simple touch up like this makes a huge difference in appearance, plus it'll help fill in the gaps.

Out of curiosity, how thick spacers will you be using?

Well, better get used to getting pulled over for no reason.

car looks gr8 though, get a nice exhaust tip and ull be set, maybe the corners need tinting but its good the way it is. r u gonna keep the wheels flat black or ur gonna add clear ? i think theyll be easier to clean with some clear coat

Use high temp bbq paint for the tips. For the roundels i would do what i did and order the smoked laminX from Umnitza. Get the 4x8 run off that he sells, it's enough for both emblems. Just put it on the roundel and run a razor around the edge. I'll post a pic tommorrow.

haha.. I don't. Thanks. The corners are already smoked. I'm gonna keep the wheels as is. They are powder coated flat black, so they'll clean off just fine.

The outer ones you can just use your fingers to pull them off, just slip your finders behind the ring and pull outward. The inner ones are a bit harder to get, use a small screwdriver to gently pry them out if you need to.

While I am not a ususal proponent of Angel Eyes, I would love to see a murdered e34 with some red ones. I can just imagine how evil that thing would look at dusk. If I saw it at a gas station I would expect SATAN himself to get out and make me deal.:devillook
