Likewise! Weirdly enough the entire time I was there, I never ran into Brian or Doug.

Some of my favs:

Hubba hubbaaaaa

Anybody know info on this car?

Plate made me laugh.

Feel free to post more pics

Those Z8's are cool I was one of the Only Z8 certified techs at the BMW dealer for a while. Got to work on every one of those that came through the door.

Great Pics Martin!

IRL-MN · 04-05-2010, 07:57 PM

I don't know how Martin and I missed Doug and Brian in such a small place! Anyway, here are some of my favorites - apologies for the piece of crap that was stuck on the lens, I didn't notice till afterwards...

dfries · 04-05-2010, 08:33 PM

Yeah I'm not sure how we missed each other. I got there around 10 and was there for about 40 min. When I was pulling up Brain was pulling out of the complex so we chatted quick in the street. A lot of nice cars there for sure!

ajvee · 04-05-2010, 10:12 PM

I am not seeing the piece of crap (I hope you're not talking about the Aston

). Damn! you guys take some sweet pictures man.

Awesome pics! I can't believe we didn't see each other too! I apologize for getting there late

Anvar---How's the GIAC??????

Showsol2211 · 04-06-2010, 02:35 PM

I wish I could have made it out there! I was working on some things for work and couldn't make it. I hope to make the spring meet though!!

BSME90 · 04-07-2010, 12:27 AM

Someone else made a collage of videos of the cars leaving the lot.

The most hilarious part I think is when the Lambo leaves and someone yells out, "I WANNA MARRY YOU!!" It's around the 1:12 time area.

No, it just came primered. Hopefully I'll have it installed by next wednesday! *crosses fingers*

BrianMN · 04-07-2010, 10:51 PM

I'm really tempted by that front bumper, so I can't wait to see how yours turns out!

I noticed you got rid of your front splitters for a Hamaan Lip...(?). Why the switch?

BrianMN · 04-07-2010, 11:31 PM

I just thought the Mtech front splitters were a little to ricey or too 'stick-on' looking.

On other color cars they look OK, but for some reason they look weird on mine. I really like the Hamann though!

Yea, I like that lip too! As for the m3 rep front bumper, I'll post pics as soon as I get it installed!!

Oh yea, a couple days ago, I saw this 2002. Looked pretty clean.

IRL-MN · 04-08-2010, 08:42 AM

Looking forward to seeing the bumper Martin. Where are you getting the paint work done? Are you doing the install yourself?
