I also forgot to add I did my taillight mod yesterday while test fitting the H26 front bumper. Many of you don't know how tiny those little E28 tail light running lights actually are. I'm always afraid people are going to rearend me. It doesn't help being as low as I am. So I decided to go ahead and make my running lights just a hair bigger, and brighter.. I'll post a picture of it once it gets dark tonight!

In for pics! this sounds interesting and I'd like to see it. Cool valance too, if I had an early E30 I would be all over it

^Yeah, I'm sure you could make it fit your late model!
Just kidding. It's already setup for the E28, so I'm gunna try to rock it for a few days, see how I feel about it.The tail light mod is one mod alot of E28 owners wanna do, but never end up doing it? I don't know why they don't. My mod took roughly... 5 minutes... And it's significantly more noticeable.

Run a front bumper and it would look great!

Tuck a bumper and throw it on above that valence. How do you think it looks?
Gunna attempt to kill 2 birds with one reply.
I don't have a front bumper. Nor do I think I'll ever run one. Not a US one atleast. I sold my pushed in US bumper to Zak the night it started snowing really bad. So until then. I will rock bumperless!

So, I decided to go back to my home town area, hang out with 2 of my best friends from my childhood. Ironically, we all own BMW's. Too bad we don't have E39's or this photo would fit perfectly.
(Takedown and Keepersofchaos)
This is basically my friends and I. Only we roll in E28's, E32's and E36's.
Anyways, enough about how I miss having friends. Onto photoshoot stuff. One of our friends we went to highschool with is becoming a relatively decent photogtrapher. She does some decent work, Made us drive on dirt (terrible idea, I cleaned my car, and got my car dirty fast. yay rallying)
Disregard my passengers side bumper sagging, in the process of driving to the shoots location, I managed to bottom out the bumper in a parking lot and lost a mounting bolt.
Anyways, here's a few photos!
Leon's Ice Cream, ftw!
RX-8's got an agency power exhaust, shoots massive flames. And is for sale, or trade for an FD RX-7.
Typical gas station shot.
My rust spot, showing like a champ. And a shout out to Jeremy Cliff and Brad Sillars!
Only shot that really shows how low I am.. I burn grass pulling onto a freshly mowed lawn.
And the last 2 are when the E36 broke it's shift linkage. So I got to utilize my 535I's massive torque specs to tow his ass all the way home!
He wasn't upset about it, because he's got an E30 325IS at home to drive to work till he gets a new shift linkage.
And here's the honda being parked on campus, my friend uses the excuse, "it's to cold to walk to the pub from the parking lot, so I drove" Haha

I enjoyed the pics! That Trike/E39 picture is amazingly cool too
That's basically me and my friend with the E36, and my friend with the E32 that's not pictured currently. We all were really good friends in grade school, the one moved away, and KeepersofChaos and I have been pretty damn good friends since, and Takedown has come back into our lives as well.
