Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
are you planning on keeping the exhaust tip totally hidden? so are those pics with it clamped as high as it will go? if so I would knock mine off in a heartbeat on ANY speedbump...

Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
yeah - i think i am - i like the way the rear-end looks so nice and clean without a muffler sticking out form under the bumper - i dont like it on any car really - because car designers rarely fit the exhaust into the design of a vehicle and it just sticks out like a sore thumb, unless of course its a ferrari, lambo, etc.
in order to make it unhidden - you will need 2 more bends in the exhaust tubing.
as far as the height goes - i need another clamp to raise it up more..i will be finishing all of that tomorrow and post more pics...

Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
for my next work log - i'll be doing my Fuel Pressure Regulator - which i'm waiting on a bracket to get here in the next couple of days
Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
i think you're supposed to have ONE work log and within that ONE you can create different steps and "sub" work logs.
not bashin or anything, just sayin...i dont want any of this good info being delted or going to waste!

Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
YAY! for whatever reason - my digital camera that hasnt worked in over 6 months,decided to start working again - i guess it got mad that i was going to buy another one today...lol. so with that being said, i've been able to move away from the crappy camera phone and take some real pictures of my car and i must say - it makes a HUGE difference. here are the latest:
i'll be taking some more pictures tonight when it gets dark - so i can hopefully capture the ambiance of the blue interior

Is it just me or is the gap between your hood and your bumper a little big?

Re: zzzoomx3's mx3
yeah - there's a gap - thanks to a fender bender - i'm not going to worry about it since i'm getting a bodykit...soon
yeah the paint is really good except for some spots where the clear coat has lifted - dont complain too much - the texas heat isnt that great for paint either - it will practically melt it right off
