    We just finished a build up of a 03 BMW SMG M3 for one of the big guys at Valvoline. The car was picked up this morning and is heading to Vegas to sit in the Ro_Ja wheels booth.
    Heres a pic and more can be found on my blog- www.performancepartszone.com

    A quick list of whats been done to the car-
    Carbon Fiber Hood, Trunk, and Front Bumper
    Carbon Fiber Roof- Not an overlay, we had to cut the factory one out
    Supercharged w/ alcohol injection
    Intercooled
    Sparco Milano Racing seats
    Brembo Big Brake Kit
    RoJa 19" wheels
    H&R coils
    Carbon Fiber interior trim- replacements, not overlays.
    and ugly stickers as required by sponsors

    Theres more, but we were working on the car until well after midnight last night then in here early to finish and load it on the trailer, my brain is shot.

    Let me hear what you think, but keep in mind, this is the first time we've torn into any european car.

    It was supposed to have a small SEMA Preview Pic in Euro Tuner and Modified Luxury and Exotic, but if it is, it would have been with out the graphics.


    I hate the stickers and stripes on it, but thats what the sponsors wanted, and they paid for all of the parts and labor. Of course, the stickers went on last night, will be seen in Vegas, then in 2 weeks, all the stickers come off and the car gets driven daily again.

    Nice!! I like it when they put decals like that on cars, near the bottom and all in a "ghost white" color, so they're there, but not really bright and intrusive. Looks good to me.

    well, we just decided, when we get to Vegas, we are going to pull the long stripes off the side of the car and just leave the ones at the bottom

    That's good. Thank goodness that those decals are coming off, no need in bring in the wrong attention when it isn't necessary. Overall, it looks good!

    The car is going to be in the RO_JA booth so those were the wheels they gave us to use.
    If you want to see a prime example about how much control a manufacturer has depending on their level of sponsorship, you should see the Fuzion STi we just rebuilt (the first job was done by some hacks, so we had to essentially rebuild the entire car).
    Ill post some pics on my blog of it later today so you can see what im talking about.
