Sending car into shop... again...
Ok, so im redoing my exterior, yet again, everything but my fenders are here (buying the z3's from sovreign). Anyway, it'll be anywhere fmo next week to three weeks before a spot in the body shop i use opens up, b/c of their projects they have going. All in all, i think i'll be satisfied with everything (will be primed only till my rims get here, so we can match a color up to the anodized black). anyway, here's what all is going on:
Ground Designs 2000 Black Widow front
ViS Octane Skirts and rear
Steel Z3's
once they get done, i'll be adding the 04 tails, and hopefully by that time, i'll have acquired a set of uncleared headlights so i can put them on. now, what i need from you folks is a little input. Being as this will be show majorily, i was wanting input on color opinions. should i have all pearls and stuff taken out of the black, and going with a black and clear coat, or should i do something else? i kind of like the red to blue pearl, but don't know if it'll work. also, i have another idea, and was wondering if it'd all be feasible for my car, not all at once, but it's something i eventually want to do. 1. drop in k20 2. convert to right hand drive 3. convert to all wheel drive. i know the k20 will be a definite, but how do you think that the right hand drive and all-wheel drive conversion will look. i might just do k20 and right hand drive, and possibly convert to rear wheel drive, but figured i'd ask about the awd anyway. thanks for all your input

It would be tight if you could do # 1,2, and 3!! But good luck with #2 and 3. You 're looking at MAJOR modification and MAJOR $$$$$. But if you have the money more power to you!!!
Its a celebration bitches!
