Yeah lol. This is probably the dirtiest it has been. Highs have been in the teens.. and lows about 0 for all of this week so far, and with snowfall & salt factored in there you can see how it goes. Not supposed to get warmer until sunday/monday here but I'm gonna try to sneak in a wash at work on Saturday.

Washed up the ZHP and the 330Cic Vert then headed out with the new Cannon T3i. Still not what I 'm looking for but better than my point & shoot. If anyone would like to share the best way to capture the bluest blue of the blue sky without PhotoShop enhancement, I'd be grateful. FYI; I was using the circular polarized filter but, I still not getting it when I upload them to the PC.

Why?
I know about the possibility for some fun drift action, but the salted roads! Ugh...
And not having a clean car for months while it's cold...

Cars can handle the salt completely fine. If they didn't they wouldn't put such a big warranty on corrosion....although all the warranty is up now..LOL. I haven't had a problem in 10 years of winters...not a sign of rust! I broke down and washed my car after just over a month of not cleaning it. Alexandre's car is still the nastiest I've seen an E46. I think he's going for the record. I reckon he not clean it until this July.

Today we were doing our usual weekend ventures and I decided to take an unexplored path home from our destination that was 40 minutes north. The way home led us into the back hills through Bell Buckle, and Wartrace, TN. On the way through Wartrace I found this cool retro Texaco station and stopped to take a few shots with the dirty ZHP. Once parked in front of the pump I got out of the car, camera in hand and ready to tack some pictures. Then I see this guy heading my way asking if I knew that Toby Kieth "the Red Solo Cup guy" owns the place. He also said that this is where he keeps the classic cars that he uses in his videos. Tennessee gets cooler by the day, what a great place to live.

Yesir! I think if I went 8x8.5, the steering would feel weird. With the 8 in the front, the steering definitely feels different. It feels like it "steers itself". The tires grab more road. Could be just the fact that they are brand new too and have not yet settled in.

The fronts look perfect. Back not too bad either but I think I may get some 10mm spacers for the back. Just boost the rear a little.

Yeah.....it was raining incredibly hard that I didn't see the extended curb at night as I pulled a right hand turn at about 20mph. Curb was higher than my side skirt so that hit first underneath and unclipped the skirt for pressure relief. The tire rolled up and slipped off the curb and 270 degrees of the wheel got it with a beautiful M3 like drift as the rear end destabilized with the help of DSC putting the car back into place. LOL

It should be illegal to have curbs higher than maybe 3 inches...
That's how I damaged one of my Style 71's last year. It was 04:30 in the morning, I was tired as hell, and was barely awake. SCCCRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPEEE....

Ouch. How's that alignment? I smacked a curb pretty hard several years ago and screwed up my alignment pretty good. I was racing around an empty curby parking lot and took curve to tight.

Be careful out there, screwing around or not.

Luckily the angle of attack was really easy on the chasis. It just sounded much worse than it was. The side skirt will need a bit of repair....nothing that a little black touchup paint and a feather can't fix to at least hide the scrapage:

Sanded everything down, repainted the bad spots, blended into the old paint and it's good as new with a few metal chunks taken out of the rim....LOL

The black splitters made a huge difference on my car. You should also think about tinted corners. This pic is old but you get the idea.

Thanks. I really like how it has turned out. I was actually missing a mirror cover at the time. But you could go CF or black if you wanted. If it were me, I would just plastidip my stock mirror covers so that I could just take it back off whenever I wanted. For the record, all of my corners and my splitters are plasti-dipped black. It matches the trim perfectly.

The lip? You mean the splitters? They were chipped carbon fiber splitters from MiniD. I think Khoalty and a bunch of other places sell them. I just plastidipped them black. Goes better with the car anyway since I don't have any other carbon fiber.

So I'm normally more of a fan of side or front quartering shots, but this rear quarter shot does it for me. Maybe the tease of the exhaust, angles in the wheels, the mystic blue took on a different hue in the clouds, I dunno but its something. Preston was just pointing the camera, no special set up.

Wait, what? You plasti-dipped your corners and they look good?!?!

I spent SOOOO much time getting the film just right on my tail's (and scratched them some in the process) and all I had to do was tape them off and use some plasti-dipp?

Yep. They look fantastic during the day. To be honest though, my fronts don't look as good with the lights on. But it is user error. It was only 40 degrees the day I did them, so the spay wasn't even. I will redo them soon once it warms up a little more. I only put one good coat on so light would be visible through it.

Yeah.....it was raining incredibly hard that I didn't see the extended curb at night as I pulled a right hand turn at about 20mph. Curb was higher than my side skirt so that hit first underneath and unclipped the skirt for pressure relief. The tire rolled up and slipped off the curb and 270 degrees of the wheel got it with a beautiful M3 like drift as the rear end destabilized with the help of DSC putting the car back into place. LOL
