Well, since SSC is hitting it off and is starting to have day to day traffic, we have decided to start a daily journal of things we are doing at the shop. So, let the pics begin.

Today we had some E46 M3 action

Painted the stock wheels black

we will polish lips, wheels will be too expensive and you'll probably won't want to pay for it.

lookin good guys!

Just a note on the sol... be super careful on the A pillar with the seals.. right at the "point" of the triangle window on the front of the doors is a little "inflated" spot on the seals.. that spot LOVES to freak out when the seals are removed and replaced, and by freak out I mean deflate and let water flow freely in. It's a Sol specific glitch, it's a PITA...

Work looks OUTSTANDING! Can't wait to get my car done so I can bring you guys some detail stuff (like that damn trunklid I mentioned to you, Bucky)

^Justin you didnt want them to paint the trunk...and engine bay...?

well the trunk was dirty as ballz and its pretty involved cause that trunk is pretty complex, all the brackets and framework plus im gonna spray bomb it one day, but it'll take a good weekend to clean it and sand it and spray a bunch of coats. and engine bay is waaaaaaayyyy oooover the top to do... no engine pulling quite yet

Thanx for posting the pics. I like the idea of daily postings. I was going to start a shop blog. I tried posting pics of a few of the upgrades we were doing at our shop. Seemed like most IAers thought it was inappropriate to post customer cars. Looks like they like yours better. I'll keep checking for your updates. I have a little 1974 2002 that I want to do some pinstripping on. You all do that stuff too? Wanted to paint it silver and run the BMW blue, ble, red colors in a instrip along the body line.
