I want to make you guys a part of it. You've been here since I got here and I'm taking influences from all corners. Please feel free to contribute any ideas.

Random ideas...
  • Get the list of all 318ti.org members and inscribe them onto the car in some sort of pattern. Perhaps zebra or leopard print would be nice. :-)
  • Allow 318ti.org members to decorate a small area (e.g. 4"x4") in any manner they wish, then you arrange those panels onto the car.
  • Same as previous, but charge various amounts of money for space on the car. The price could depend on how prominent that spot is.
  • Paint the exterior so that it looks like what's directly inside of it. I.e., the hood would be painted with a top-down view of the motor, the drivers door would be the drivers seat, etc. Or maybe just do that for random small sections, with the edges of the "hole" made to look like rust so the effect is that a hole has rusted all the way through the door.
  • Stripes composed of the pages of the owners manual

some new photos I took, enjoy guys. Credit for the wheels goes to John (Johvela). He did a rocking job on them from scratch to finish, I couldn't be more happy. Thanks John!

Thank man. I've got so many compliments on them, none I can take responsibility for. I'll have to get back out there before the snow falls.

And those millpoints are irreplaceable

no wonder I couldn't find it, I'm searching the wrong forum so they're just subwoofer port tubes? seems easy enough, I might give it a try sometime in the future
