Hey guys, we havn't done a "real" photoshoot in a while. Anyone interested in doing a mini shoot either tomorrow (Monday) or Wednesday? Then we have the 7/7 Santa Cruz drive on Saturday.

How's around 7? Not dark yet, and if we wanted to, we can get some night shots.

ALEX, you better come for this before you go off to China.

The Seibon trunk is more of a traditional CSL trunk and it looks good for what it is (Vorsteiner alternative) but I'm worried it might look funny on a more up to date car (e92 vs e46). There also isn't a place for the BMW emblem...

If you could though, see if you could get me a good price. I'll definitely consider it still since Technik's trunk is outrageous. Let me know you feelings on it too. Thanks for all the help again

I'd rather not have the Roundel which is what attracted me to this trunk, but if you have to have it, a decal can solve your problems.

Seibon = very subtle and is worth purchasing for the sake of having CF. If you plan to paint it, than keep looking.

Technik = PIMP. Suits car well.

I'll check the price anyways.

Isn't that thing supposed to be scratch proof? It's definitly not idiot proof because I drop it all the time. Still looks like the day I got it.

Well the Seibon one is still CSL style. I was tihnking of just siliconing a roundel on there if i really want it. It should look clean regardless. You really wouldn't recommend getting it and painting it? I think it's still a good alternative to get a csl trunk. I was tihnking of only painting the top and leaving the inside CF and then maybe doing the same to a hood if i get one.

my 8801 is perfect except for a dent in the battery cover, i musta walked into a desk or something.

Oh, okay. Man, I don't like the name jessica because she was my ex's name. And since you talked to Ed, i thought you may know her.

I'll have to look at more images, but for now, I think it's plain.

Just imagine how it will look on your car, not a standard E92.

BRB to seek more images.

+1
After further review, I can say that it looks very nice, but very subtle. Paint will make it even more discrete.

Once again, it does look very good, but a more aggressive version may match your car better.
