Well been looking into doing some small things to the car, and figured if i did it myself…i would save some money…and i finally got around to doing this with the amazing help from jesse (Muscle50)
So the project begins:
As you can see from the close up…I have the black kidney grill with chrome surrounding it, which you will see on most BMW’s.
Another thing that you might not see on all BMW’s is the Lower grille on the bumper painted the same color as the car. Didn’t really like that too much, since the grille is supposed to be black
amd here is the shot of both…
So jesse and i lift the car a bit…remove the lower grille and the kidney grill
I then removed the chrome pieces from the kidney grill
Once they were all off…we got a scuff pad and sand paper and started going towards the garage so we can start sanding all the pieces down. On the short walk towards the garage…i got side tracked…
QUACK!
After getting off course for a few minutes…the walk to the garage continued. We sanded all the pieces and grabbed the black primer and went to town…
After a few coats of primer…it sat for a while…then we sprayed the semi gloss paint. Afterwards it sat for about 2 hours or so…and once everything was nice and dry, we then walked back to the car…and put everything back on
The Finished Product:
All in all…it was an easy project, and it saved me a good chunk of change. A day well spent…and again…GIANT! :tup: to jesse for helping me out once again
muscle50 did something that involved a PARKED car ???
i call bullshit … he only leaves the house if theres a race set up j/k
looks good dude, is there supposed to something that fills the holes next to the foglights ? they look like they are missing something with the way the edge of the bumper is shaped there
they are actually supposed to be like that…kind of dumb, but oh well. They have pieces to fill them…but jesse and i were actually discussing this and we have something in mind to fill those up
I call april fools day on this one, the last time you tried doing something yourself, you neglected to mention that your battery terminals were switched and we almost burned your stang to the ground
