Its a BMW factory option paint called Ruby Black.

Looks great in the sun.

Last weekend the alternator died on me. My mate came and we jump charged the battery enough for me to get it to his place.

Alternator came out (what a job that is.. everything is in the way!) and got taken down to an auto elec for testing.
Defs broken. A new one acquired and will be fitted tomorrow.


Along with a service as its just about to click 100,000kms.



Once i get everything sorted for Powercruise at the end of march I will start to get the exterior finsihed off.
Needs chrome door trims, and possibly go for the Senator roof spoiler and VY HBD bobtail.
Might try and get a new DUS (or my current repaired) and some engine covers, all colour coded ruby black.
... Also have a sunroof that needs installing too.. a whole roof has been in my garage for 3 years now.



..............for Powercruise tho...
Want to get a T400 and a 4000 dominator stally..
And a trutrack center put in as well. Current LSD is starting to single up unless i'm dead straight. Even then its starting to get sketchy.
ANNNNND pay for my pit pass.
$$$$$$$

New paint looks insane mate! Those Series 2 SS wheels aren't bad either. Nice and understated I think, maybe a good wheel choice for the S's :p
