normally im not a fan of "odd" colored wheels but your car pulls it off nicely!
GJ!


as for the discussion on the rear bumper, leave it be or wait til a cheap mtech one pops up... not a fan of the mockpaint diffuser myself.
Would be interesting to see how a 2dr/4dr diffuser would fit with our bumper though!

The rims don't look that bad. You should paint the car the same color as the rims.
College students can't make up their minds nowadays. I switched majors for the 2nd time too, so I should know like most students do. What major are you switching to for the 3rd time? I switched from graphic design to computer networking.

@lazoh: Haha nice. I remember having that job at high school. It sucks. Glad I left that **** hole.

@EuroJDMHB: Was the test hard? Because I just got done taking my A+ Hardware and this summer I am also taking A+ Software among other classes. I am actually going back to fix my major to CET Cisco and my minor to CET Microsoft.

Lol nice. I plan to keep my books so that I can use that to study. Too bad you're not into that anymore but it's nice to be in the medical field. Lord knows how many more we need them everyday. Where in the medical field do you wanna get into?

That's cool. I just had a coworker graduate from Keiser University who is in the same field. I bet there is a lot more studying than CET.

I am not really of fan of this, but this looks like it could be made very easily. If I was more of a track rat, I would do this and put in a full cage. But thats not realistic on a daily driven.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-E...ht_1998wt_1167


This diffuser is 50$, plus 20$ for shipping.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/92-98...item5192693db7

I think this would be a simple instal. Cut out the outline of this, make some sort of mounting bracket behind the cover. Then with fiberglass, or bondo, you can fill in the space around it, or round of the edges making it look clean. You can have your bumper professionally painted, as well as having this painted in the black of your choice, and still be way under the 500$+ price of a ti sport bumper.

And Philly, these cars have been in around for 15 years now, I think they would have made a cheap version by now. I doubt we will see anything in the near future. If some cheap chinese knockoff company tried to make a cheap replica version it would be of poor quality. There is even a lesser chance that a high quality company would make something nice and still for a decent price.
