Hola. Me llamo Chris.

[Ch40t1c]

What's good fellas!

Many of you may know me from Bimmerforums, or some other forum I troll around on. For those of you whom I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet, my name is Chris. I'm 19, a Junior at the University of Washington, and somewhat new to the car 'scene', but have been loving every minute of it. I picked up my E46 (non-ZHP ), early in 2010, after my S40 was hit on the freeway and totaled after less than 100 miles put on by me ; but it was for the best it seems. Being new to the 'scene', my mechanical knowledge is between not, and very little - however I have been dabbling in aesthetics since before I even had my driver's license. I have been detailing for a few years now, and have had the honor to do other enthusiasts cars, and I can tell you the feeling you get after a customer leaves satisfied is pretty spectacular; definitely the icing on the cake. I'm passionate about car care and detailing specifically - so if you have any questions or would just like to chat about it, don't hesitate to send me a PM; I'll talk your ear off. Maintenance wise, everything is done and out of the way, save the VANOS, and leaking crescent points by the VCG. These will be tackled shortly during this summer; and so with that, without further adieu - my E46.

Familiar car, and a nice one at that! Nice to see you over here.

[Johnmadd]

Welcome, that lawnmowers stance is nasty.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Chris, welcome to the site.

Nice stance on the mower. May result in some premature plastic wear but oh well. It's all about the look on that beast. Nicely done.

[Newjack]

Welcome to the forum! I'm loving your car. I hope to get my black ZHP in the same condition as yours someday!

[Hornung418]

Welcome!

Welcome. Great car. Love the matte black grills on the Jet Black, wouldn't sure if I would like that look or not. Was thinking gloss would be better, now it's a tough decision. Can we get some pics of the interior mods?
