  1. 4-1 for bikes, becasue space is a big factor to consider and also low end power is for girls
  2. also just noticed the area you highlighted for mounting to the firewall is the access panel to the heater fan. so theres not really anything structural there to bolt it too, id just go traditional and over the top of the engine and hammer bonnet to suit
  3. getting towers tied into the cage not an option?
  4. edit, just watched that clip, this is not the same spray chrome i was using seems it has been improved to be idiot proof now
  5. re: spray on chrome, it does look the biz/kinda like the shiny side of tinfoil but is so impossibly hard to get it to spray properly most people wont bother (i did it and it looks like glossy brushed aluminium because i suck) re: stick on chrome(the good shit) looks awesome but bumpers will need to be painted silver first as its transparent so you cant go be to carbon if you change your mind
  6. buffing a matt paint makes it look yuck
  7. its a very low grade paint made for garden furniture, with a whole list of reasons not to use it under your car. you can brush on any paint it just might not flow out as well as others. just head on into RJP and buy some cheap etch primer and some laquer black and brush to your hearts content
  8. kill rust is terrible stuff avoid if possible
  9. in my comment i was not taking into account the fact that anybody ever considered running an open diff in a bmw. that's just plain stupid weld it and yee shall have no problems
  10. can handle 200hp and daily clutch kicking for several years without failure
  11. i have a spare diff i shall check its ratios. and also the one in my car. also stumbled upon an wrecked e46 on the tard, has a picture of some lower arms for sale
  12. just skid rims, i actually have 2 sets so ill dig out 3 that still hold air
  13. england is your friend for parts half shafts are about $300 for genuine bmw items
  14. its german, used to be shit but has come aloooong way very quickly
  15. once its cured you can overcoat with any primer you want, wouldn't bother adding more coats after working unless you plan on leaving it for a while before starting paint stuff tbh id go for mipa filler/high build primer. cheap enough and nice to work with
  16. yes, water tight. free sanding just means its not an arse to prep for recoating
  17. you pretty much have to wire it backwards to instinct rather than do another painting i found a nice tidy picture on google to suit 2 pin set up for bike
  18. will you be using a 2 or 3 pin flasher?
  19. also pretty ken for yellow/amber window tints
  20. from the side the t2 kit finishes the car (i feel) from the front it does need something but with amber fog lights std flashers (not those ghey smoked ones) i think my toaster will be smoking (it already gets popped every time i see it)
  21. resene durepox 2k tough, flexible and comes in satin black
  22. then i shall get one i want white bumpers and side moldings and i know that the factory ones just don't look right in white some pink wheels will set of off im sure
