That car has a lot more Potenzal than most people realise... hohoho...

I think I prefered it as white though rather than yellow, does it still have the awesome custom paint on the bonnet?

Are the BBS wheels originally from an E21 3 series Bimmer?

Love your car made a tread for it over on www.retro-rides.org in the UK.

paint the bonnet matt black.
and yes markbognor its off a e21
but i have to warn people who are going to do it, the centre bore of the wheel is too small and require longer stud aswell.

I know you've been here for a while, but it's good to see you on here with dodgy's old car :) Seems to be more semi-regular posters from melbourne people over the past couple of months, which is cool. Maybe i'll get around to organising a meet in the future.

eeden: Love the X-reg plates :) Bumper looks friggin awesome. How does the rear look?

You gonna come down to the hillclimb next weekend? At this stage it looks like I might be participating with one of my cars on the day ;) The details about it are in here. Would be cool if you could make it.

Funny you should mention, I'm in Sydney right now (and will be until next tuesday night). Would love to take a visit up but with the way work + weekend life is lately I'm lucky to get a weekend to myself, haha!

On topic: I think I like yellow more than I like white on K11's now.. whoa.
