Damn, dude. You must party like a rock star if you still haven't made it home to resize your 18MP pictures yet.

Took 1.5 minutes and I have a 12Mbps down connection.

You should be proud of your car and everything, but it would be prudent to fix those pics. If you have trouble I can resize them for you and post them so you can edit your original post with smaller versions.

I never once claimed to be a "F***in' hotshot 'puter geek", plus i don't even have access to Photoshop, its my brother who takes the pictures of my car and I'm away at school. So relax and take it easy on the threats, its embarrassing that your talking to a 19 year old kid you don't even know like that. I'll fix my pictures when I'm home and able to.
Does anybody else foresee Mr. bimmerkid09's time here being relatively short and him leaving abruptly after going through a noob-pattern meltdown? I do, while hoping I'm wrong. :roll:

It's not the 19 year olds you have to look out for.. Its the 30 year olds that you have to watch out for.. We're smart enough to get ourselves into trouble, and half ass it out of trouble.

Car doesn't look too bad at all, ditch the wheels though.. Simple borbets don't look that great on these older bmw's.. Its all about the split spoke..

Also, If you do any of that stance work bullshit you are dead to me LOL..

Happy Modding.. :)

Thanks for taking care of the pics.

Now, I suggest getting the smoked side markers. I, like most here, prefer chrome kidneys. It is one of the symbols of the BMW from nearly the very beginning and I prefer mine to shine. Other than that, read the tech FAQ and make sure the rest of the car is as good mechanically as it looks and it will serve you well.
