Progress and photos (GTS Hood + HRE + more)

Gumby_F80 · 11-12-2018, 02:03 PM

A few months back I made the choice to put a little more into this car and turn it into what I had always imagined it could be. The photos below reflect the current state of the car. Hopefully there will be more to come in the future but I couldn't be happier with the way it sits now. I had help and advice from a lot of people from the start with this car and so I will list them below and say thank you to all of them individually in person.

Eric @ Supreme Power for being a good friend, a great businessman and his honesty. I always feel confident referring my friends and family to his business.

Jon Kohl @ HRE for all of his help with getting the refinish done so well and so quickly. I can't say enough about the whole process with them. It was extra special when they invited me down to the Open House and I got to see my wheels on the line almost complete.

Several members of the IND/ RKP team for making quality products and being professional all the time.

Justin @ AutoTalent for confirming many suspicions, answering lots of questions and also being a good guy

Britney and the guys @ bmwpartspros.com for helping source, secure and deliver in a timely and professional manner all the parts I've been searching for and continue to look for.

The team @ the dent shop here in my hometown of San Luis Obispo. These guys are my secret weapon. Their paint work is exceptional and if you ask them to do something a certain way... they do it and do it well. The hood was painted and matched perfectly to the rest of the car without any blending and additional layers of clear to ensure I could polish down to the exact finish I want. It was pain staking for them and they were all stars about the whole thing.

Now the pics

shay2nak · 12-05-2018, 03:37 AM

Looks amazing!

What are the specs of the wheels & tires?

That's the factory GTS hood?

FTP20 · 12-06-2018, 10:35 PM

That is one good looking F80 stacked with excellent parts! What widths and offsets are your HREs? I am guessing 9.5" front et18 and 11" rear et38.

itachi_d · 12-07-2018, 01:45 AM

stunning

M3SQRD · 12-08-2018, 04:24 PM
