I played this video for my daught and her boyfriend yesterday night. It was fun to see Hoovie rag on BMW (un)reliability. We've been working on her car more than we have been driving it! Ha!

The body kit extends down about 1 inch at the corners of the front bumper and along the rocker panels vs. without.
That's good looking! I always found it hard to shape well. I'm digging the AluPoly I have now.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
