Default steal of the century

there is a bicycle and automotive speed shop near me. Over the years the automotive part has gotten more and more ricey.. well I was in there yesterday to purchase a new bag for my bike and found they are going strictly bicycles and are liquidating their automotive section.

For two years now.. there has been an E36 Sedan C/F hood by VIS. Somebody ordered it, put a downpayment on it, and never came back. Brand new, I got it for $250.

Now to cut some holes in it to make a vorstiener replica out of it!

going to be a shame to paint it.. the pictures do not do a thing for how deep the weave looks.

VIS anre known for poor quality molds but for the price you are absolutely right. Excellant steal. You might want to do a lighter version of the paint on your car so the color shows thru to a degree.
