its not my style at all

1) Rims that open require a substantial brake setup to look good

2) painting drum brakes yellow just draws attention to them, which is the last thing you want to do to stock drum brakes

3) the yellow octopuss under the hood is way over kill imo

i really think that even if you want it on the "wild" side you can pick soem stuff that flows together more.. good luck with the project..

It kinda looks like you went the cheap way to make your car look different. All the yellow has got to go. Rims are not my style. Colored drums is something makes the car stand out. Not in a good way.

umm.. im not feeling the whole green and yellow combo you got going so get rid of that.. def.. dont ever paint drums a real bright color i.e. Yellow .... the rims are ok but not my style.. get a type r grill and a simple lip kit with a drop and some smaller rims it would look nice.. and whats up with the fenders?

about the fenders....they were both carbon fiber z3 fenders but the previous owner slid on some ice and hit a stop sign so one of them got replaced with flat black and then he hit the front bumper so that was replace with stock black as well. so now i have a flat black fender and bumper with one cf z3 fender...i am fixing that ASAP.

Ya, yellow...Bye bye. But the care looks clean as hell. doesnt look like it has any dents so its a good base to start with. Have fun with it.
