The Official Show off your E36 thread!!! (Post pics)

Took some shots with my buddies Gr33ne36 and Jaws.

Went out for a drive and decided to shoot these. Didn't realize I have to adjust my castor or how bad the paint on my wheels was. I'll probably take care of that some time next week.

Ds2s are so easy to refinish. Mazda sunbeam silver duplicolour is an exact match. Car looks amazing. Clean estoril paint is timeless.

[LockDots]

Good to know. Thanks! Wonder how I'm going to take care of the curb rash. No gouges, but some scrapes. I want to get them refinished at a wheel shop but at the same time it's a nice chunk of change that could go towards new wheels.

Damn, I think Estoril might be the best blue BMW has ever made. Car is looking great and I LOVE the fishbowl look. Wurth silver wheel paint is the BMW factory silver. Even if you get new wheels, DSII's are great looking, I'd hang on to them and restore them.

[LockDots]

Thanks! I definitely don't want to get rid of them. May just redo them myself over winter.

Me and my wife refinished my ds2s. They are a winter setup, so there's some tape lines, but we took the wheels from a solid 1/10 to an 8/10. We used Jb weld to fill the curbage, sanded with 400, 800, 1500, taped, painted, and wet sand. Super easy.

[LockDots]

Not bad. And the jb weld held when changing tires?

[notMpowered]

Oh yeah. I mean, there really is no load on any of it when filling in curbage.
This wheel literally was curbed 100% of the wheel.

[LockDots]

That looks awesome. I was concerned mostly with the tire shops using a bar on the edge of the wheel to slip the new tire on as well as the hooked tip they use when spinning the wheel around to finish pushing the lip of the tire on/off the wheel.

[notMpowered]

JB weld is really strong. I don't think it would damage any easier than the wheel would itself if they were prying on them. I wouldn't let a place get away with the damage regardless.

I'll be sure to yell at my dad if he does then

I've used the JB Weld effectively for the same repairs. Also used Duplicolor Ford Silver Mist Metallic (341) from Autozone combined with VHT high temp clear coat. If you wet sand with 800, 1000, 1500 grit between color coats and 1500 over the clear it's an awfully close match to BMW silver wheel paint and more cost effective than Wurth. Agreed that the DS2s look great on an E36. Below is post repair using above technique.

You need a build thread on stanceworks if you want to be legit

My PO of my car actually did have a short build thread on Stanceworks. I'll try and find it today.

EDIT: Found it. Not very long but still cool: http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...DM-stanced-E36

Its funny, the original paint color seems like the exact opposite of your wrap color. One is very subtle/almost boring while the other is very bright and exciting. And I'm glad you went with arc 8s instead of those blitz wheels
