The paint looks great, not a fan of the fenders and dont know about the wheels. Drop it first then get back to us.

not hating, but I dont really like the fenders all the much. But its your car so do what you like. The wheels are intresting. I like them though. Yeah you definetly need to drop her when you get money. The paint looks ten times better though

Nice job

thanks for the opinions guys. Personally I don't mind the fenders too much- the story behind them is that I got in a fender bender in downtown minneapolis, it was actually cheaper for two z3 fenders than one OEM fender..not to mention lighter, and made of fiberglass (wont rust). I gave it a shot, and I think it looks pretty decent. Thanks for your opinions though.

I'm planning on dropping it slightly. Eibach Pro-Kit/Koni Yellows or KYB AGX's.

Looks great!

Was two coats of Z5 enough to remove the swirls?

Once you are done putting layers of Z on, put a high quality carnauaba topper on it all for an even better shine/reflection. (Good ideas would be Souveran, Blitz, Pinnacle Paste Wax, P21S)

The fenders wouldn't be so bad if they fit right.

Nice job!

The fenders look like they are not lining up properly with the rest of the car though

I agree, they look like they need little bit of "tweaking".

yeah get rid of those fenders, it makes your car look like a shark, or actually a guppy since it is less intimidating

two coats got a lot of the swirls out.. it could always benifit from more coats. I'm planning on more Z2, and possibly some more z5. Thanks for the suggestion, but I've never heard of that before..you sure that works well?
