As far as I'm aware, yes. And I love the Monaco Blue, too....really glad I went with it, along with the Chestnut interior. Makes the car that much more unique, in my opinion.

Looks like Jean Claude Van Damme behind the wheel, lol.

Ron1n · 04-06-2013, 10:31 PM

Some new ones I took a couple of days ago.

FormerRotor · 04-07-2013, 07:45 AM

Nice, Ron1n! I'm loving that new setup.

335dFan · 04-07-2013, 09:15 AM

Although you'd never know it by my next question, I'm really not computer illiterate. But isn't there a way to directly attach a pic to a post without having said pic located at some URL? Like a simple copy-and-paste operation or insert from hard drive? I hate to stick some one-time pic out in some internet location for reference unless I want to leave it there for some time.

FormerRotor · 04-07-2013, 09:20 AM

DFan, I think there is...this may even be he way ron1n did his based on the "attachment" title above the photos.

I just upload my pics to my photo gallery then embed the URL associated with my e90post gallery. It's not the fastest route, but I really doubt I'll ever put forth the effort to delete pics from the e90 gallery, so they should stick around for a while.

DieselDiner · 04-07-2013, 09:41 AM

Hey Ron1n, tell us the details about the wheels and tires! Looks good!

crazyinp · 04-07-2013, 12:52 PM

I finally washed the car after the winter. Here is mine.

Timujin · 04-07-2013, 01:47 PM

Here is one. More in my garage.

Yeah, I'm digging it, too. Just need to find the sweet spot for the rear tires and I'll be set for a while.

VMR VB3's in gunmetal, 19x8.5 +33 offset front with 245/35, 19x9.5 +33 offset rear with 295/30's in the pic, currently have 275/30's on the rears, but I think I'm going to try 285/35's and see how they fit. If they don't rub, I'll be happy.

As far as embedding pics, scroll down under Post Reply to where it says Attach Files, and you can upload them through there.

A couple of pics of the sleeper D with the secret suspension.

Digging the bbs, crazy!

Timujin, I have a serious affinity for AW d's and yours is looking good there, sir!

Nice sleeper, dFan! And nice d, Sleeper!

DFan, your ride is so wonderfully understated relative to its modifications. I love it!

Ryebread · 04-07-2013, 08:21 PM

Sleeper your csr looks insanely clean. You're welcome to come over to my place every weekend. I'll supply the supplies and beer.

Nice pics! I regret not getting my VB3's in gunmetal. You can constantly see the brake dust scattered everywhere in matte black and one little scratch is a total eyesore.

I have got all the undercarriage pics (25 of them) ready to go on the Suspension forum. It seems like a lot of posting. I may try to shrink them down a bit first. I tell ya, the car is a totally different animal with all that suspension work. I wish there were a safe place around to wring it out, short of the HPDE coming up. It just really makes you want to hammer it all the time when it handles like that. And with the LSD the power is all going to the road, not being hung up by the traction control computer. My mileage is going to suffer and I need to get a Valentine 1 device or something.

It is not a smooth luxury car anymore. It is a driving machine. You can feel all the nuances of the road surface and weight transfers, et al. It will be really interesting when I get the Michelin PSS on and the winter RFT off.

So, knowing that I do intend to stay square, I have two choices for mounting the 245/40-18 PSS: EC-7 18x9 or ARC-8 18x8.5. The EC-7 weight about 7 pounds a piece less than my OEM and the ARC-8 about 9-10 lbs less. The EC-7 looks a bit cooler and with its design and offset I can run 0.5 inch wider. But I like the lighter weight too. Opinions of these two only?

Sorry for hijacking the picture thread.

Ryebread · 04-07-2013, 08:59 PM

335d, I could have used your car's mods this Saturday on a cruise. Especially the suspension work!
