Nice job, it really sets off the topaz color! When do you expect the volks to be done?

EDIT: Glad to see you finally got the 325 brakes off your M

[David A]

[The-Great-328ic]

I bought 3 spray cans of satin black from home depot, and end up only using 1 lol



When did you get the brakes?

about 2 months ago

[generic]

after photos need thicker black border

[M13]

Good job Jose. When are the Volks going to be finished?

[E36M34life]

Those look like they have years of brake dust on them, gloss would look tons better, and thats IF you can properly paint with gloss.

Oh, BTW, isn't 328 "ic" for a 328 convertible? Im not sure.

[BimmerDawg]

It's okay, they can still be burned.

[e34 life]

:clap

hell yes, very nice!

[RahgBag]

Correct.

He used to own one.

[SDKmann]

Thats not even fair, those look way too good for $100.

[jszy25]

I like.

[blackedM3]

Thats not even fair, those look way too good for $100.

No kidding lol, but there arent very many things that look bad on an estoril

[Krista M3]

Very nicee

[Bimmer14PA]

Good stuff sir!
-Chris

[llegos]

The first pic is clearly brakes from a 325

[seeyalaterrr]

Needs a hardtop, IMO.

[BeastinM3]

Wow those really do look good.
I wasnt sure the Topaz/black could be pulled off, nice work

[inkacola]

needs more doors

2 more to be exact, just 2 more.:D

[Bingo]

OH MY GOD YOU DID WHAT I SAID! <3333

Looks baller.

[toddman35]

The first pic is clearly brakes from a 325

That pic is clearly not of his car. :confused

Whats with this topaz business?

I'm just all sorts of confused. :(

[bennyfizzle]

if this photo was taken with a cam phone you'd all be saying some very different things right now, a good camera/pic does wonders :rofl

they're pretty hideous, but an AWESOME deal for $100 :drool:

[bennyfizzle]

side note:

good lord am i glad im not the only one whos corners/headlights/nose panel don't fit perfect. :D

[bennyfizzle]

That pic is clearly not of his car. :confused

Whats with this topaz business?

I'm just all sorts of confused. :(

first pic is clearly a rear brake

it's estoril whoever said topaz needs to be held under water

being confused is ok for short periods of time, being confused for long drawn out periods of time is a bad thing, hence ohnoes rep around here.

[bennyfizzle]

upon further review that IS a front brake in the first pic, so i too am confused, for the time being :shifty

[The-Great-328ic]

that is my old front brakes

one more but rears

[bennyfizzle]

so, is that an m3 or not :confused

[dynamik]

it's not an M3, this always comes up in EVERY thread he posts about, look at his user name

THE-GREAT-328IC

:shifty

[Bingo]

Didn't he used to have a 328IC though... I'm not doubting it's not an M3, just saying I thought that's where his handle comes from...

[daaaaainguyen]

[bennyfizzle]

[The-Great-328ic]

"loud" doesn't even describe the humongous noise coming from them :(

[SilverBeam]

what kind of tires could they be that they are so loud? offroad tires maybe?

[BimmerDawg]

what kind of tires could they be that they are so loud? offroad tires maybe?

Cheap-ass Hankooks + PO's alignment prolly being out = loud tires.

[Digitalwave]

They look pretty good. Are they real multipiece rims or did you just mask off the bolts when you painted them? Are the Volks getting refinished?

[The-Great-328ic]

they only loud when going from 10mph-30mph, pass that they are not as loud

the tires are cheap for sure

lol, no man. They're 1 pice. What I did was paint them all black at first, then spray paint silver paint over a cotton swab, and went over the fake bolts. Yeah the volks are getting refinished I just need to find a good place
