it's about time if you ask me. they're not the best, and the car's really dirty and a work in progress, but you get the picture.

I think your car is cool!
The only thing isn't nice...front bumper.
Also interesting that front steel panel(above bumper) has six holes. In Europe,only 524 Td has this front.(Maybe air goes to the oil cooler)

I think all US cars had these holes in the valance. All the one's i've seen had them (although i could be mistaken)

Not only Td all M30`s have these holes and even some old M20`s.

BTW Great car 8) I like the front spoiler... with the Euro bumpers it`s gonna be a killer ! :evil: hehe

Well, it's not that dirty (the engine, I mean). It's very difficult to keep an engine clean, especially if it's outside a lot. Looks good to me.

I have the same wrinkle finished and highlighted valve cover, too.

(Is your cruise control inoperative?)

yes my cruise is not hooked up. it's sad really, but i don't often take this car on alot of road trips, so it's not all that bad. thanks for the compliments!! i love the valve cover. i have a fresh intake mani for it thats been ported and honed... and wrinkle painted. can't wait to put that one on :|
