Detailed my engine bay BMW m3.

The pics kinda suck, the camera makes my paint look orange

What do you think?

This engine is so much easyer to clean then my hatch

Of course it's easier, those types of cars always have those plastic covers all over everything. I bet if you took those covers off it would be covered in dirt.

Re: Detailed my engine bay BMW m3. (Tetsuwan Atomu)

Nice car, but just a few suggestions :

1. Smoke out the clear lights just slightly

2. Stop-Tech big brake upgrade in the front with red calipers,

3. a nice 4-6 point roll cage

4. and some more aggresive wheels

I dunno why i just listed all that but oh well !

sweet ride

Re: Detailed my engine bay BMW m3. (mantic6t9)

nice.i used to have a red E36 325i back in the days and ur engine bay looks like mine.....I used to armor all all the plastic every weekend to keep that shine on it..after a while, i even took out that padding on the underside of the hood so that i could vacuum it...ur car is very baddass......you have the older racing dynamics wheels that goes so well with that bodystyle...mine looked just like yours but was a 4dr, dropped on BBS RX's and a Racing Dynamics V12 3 series bumper.
