Glad you went through with it. Shine FTW

That is a pretty drastic color change. Did you do the trunk, door jambs etc?

Also, get the door moldings when you can.

Last but not least, I am trying to get together a Shine/SC group photoshoot soon

look goods!!!!!

Was the car originally graphite metallic??? I also bought my 93 5speed sc 3 months ago same color. I wanted white to at first but couldnt find a 5speed

You beat me though!

I got a shine kit, coilovers, wheels, exhaust, but Im waiting on the body shop to take my car in.

These kits are selling like crazy, makito is working on a Sc in his shop as we speak. I should be next up.

Usually the fact that everybody and their mothers has a autocouture / shine kit would deter me. But it is one of the nicest looking kits out for our cars.

What specs are on those wheels? They look really good with the car. And, are you riding that low on the regular??? I tried driving that low but it was a battle getting up and down driveways. Let me know.

Yeah how difficult and expensive was that color change?

I did the complete color change. I was going to paint it pearl white but I though there are too many pearl white sc's around so I painted it the BMW M3 Alpine White 3. Just to be a little different.
