turbo M3 & gold style 5/e36 garage photoshoot

Sniz · 04-29-2009, 09:45 PM

Met up with my friend Mark who let me use his wheels for a few weeks and did a little photoshoot last night in Columbia, MD.

searched for a few locations and settled on this, we were tired and just wanted to get done.

Here you go....the 1st real good shots I've got of my car.

All shots taken on my D80 w my 50mm f1.4

Mark snapping away w his D100

Looking good. My 36 M3 had the worst lenses ever. I never changed them but it looks like you did. So much better looking. Keep it going!

E36 beauties! Matt, when I get my M3 can we schedule a photoshoot too? I'm thinking about maybe meeting at Adam's garage bone stock, installing all the cosmetic mods with you guys, then taking before/after shots. How's that sound?

Just finished production on Monday, so it's waiting to get on a boat over here. Should be at least a few more weeks.

I'm just going to get the usual for now. Vorsteiner front lip, rear diffuser (Type I or II...any thoughts as to which I should go with?), painted reflectors, and matte black grille and side grille. My buddy and I could probably install them all because they're easy, but more importantly I just want before/after shots and obviously there's no one better to go to than you

haha.....I have no idea, at all. It doesnt seem to be that bad though honestly. I'll have to calculate it one day. I'm not in boost all that often, car gets up in speed very very quick when you do and there tends to be a lot of traffic around here recently.

they were ok for a change on my car, but I much prefer the classic RCJ's that are on my car now.

I love red....so do cops

==================

shot these too yesterday in between rain storms here in the rain forest of Maryland

==================

After a week straight of rain and daily driving duties, the new hell in my life got a bath. It was so dirty I was disgusted. I look outside right now and its raining again.....damnit!

oh well, only the 3rd time I've washed this car, 1st time at my house.

figured I'd share.

anyone else on the east coast sick of this rain????

wax is still beading nicely :redspot

RCJ's are proving to be a bitch to clean, have to take them off to clean the barrels every time. I'll do it too.....I got problems.

I'm thinking a nice BBK will look awesome behind these wheels.....need to sell a few more homes ASAP. Anyone need one

lovin these seats :alright

Z4MCJJ · 05-07-2009, 10:21 AM
