Thanx Alpine... took some work though! When I got it, it was covered in a film of dust from standing for so long! Anyway, to get it looking good, I had to wash it down, give it a burnish (burnishing compound) and then a good polish. The paint is still well stained, though. I have absolutely no idea how to get the stains off... but she runs... oh how she runs!!!

Been sitting for a long time? Make sure to change ALL the fluids! Hmmm the paint is stained? Maybe look into getting it is professionally Detailed(should run around 100-300 depending on the place) and the car should be like new

Oh and BTW i love the Hub caps keep them

cool ride....any plans for modding?

Unfortunately, modding ANYTHING here in Sunny SA isnt exactly cheap. Fogs were priced at at steep R1200 set! A service at BMW ... OMG! Anyway, I have to replace the brake fluid this wkend. Besides that, it runs like a real [female dog]

The only thing Ive done is replace the stock head with a Sony and all speakers with identicals. I have an Xplod 12" in the boot running off a starsound amp. Basic, but sufficient. Oh, and I dropped in a Shurlok Level 4 alarm system to complement the BMW one. They work in tandem

I would _like_ to get the car on a dyno and get it tuned properly, but Ive got to save up for that.
Thanks for the props, people. Appreciate it!!
