It's a cheaper alternative. That and you can find black plasti-dip next to the other rattle can colors at the same store. :)

This all assumes you may want to remove the color you paint them. With the rattle can over the top of the Plasti-Dip it comes back off like the regular stuff.

Man, that's a great idea. This way you can paint it any color you want and it is still reversible because black plastidip is the base. But now I gotta be more careful not to get it on anything I don't want it on. ^.^

removed AC compressor from the E21, next step is the blower and hoses so I can put the non-AC center console and my Alpine in

Oil change, Pentosin 5w40. Free :) Another 10k miles of no oil changes :grooving

I've found my VCG is leaking less with Pentosin 5w40. Just masking the problem, but kind of nice to have to fill up only maybe once or twice between oil changes until I change it out.

Got new wiper arms to change out my worn ones on the ///M...

My son said my car got Instagram'd over on another e46 site, I don't know what that means or how to even go find it, I'm admittedly IT illiterate.

He even said some girls recognized it & our backyard, told him they saw HIS car on instagram, he had to admit its his old mans, LOL, one for us geezers!

Wait... girls recognized your backyard?

He's a very sociable young man, probably other parts of my house & yard they recognize that I don't need to know about.

The girls message he sent me, even after he told her it was his old man's car, said, and I quote, "still sexy, what's e46 mean?" lmfao!!!

If you do wheels, the easy way is to use 3x5 cards all the way around the lip. That should give ya enough room. Also, when doing emblems and such, just tape a square. Then spray and peel from the area you don't want it.

Classic! :rofl

Got my new front midbass speakers in... definitely a noticeable improvement, but nothing earthshateringly spectacular.
