once again Laurent, AWESOME work! 3 series look awesome with mesh wheels. glad you didn't slap 19's on this one a performance car with 19's just wouldn't look right. look forward to seeing more of your work!

... or maybe they're not glued in yet.

Anyhow I think it's looks good and wheels suit it, but I don't like the exhaust pipes. BMWs are meant to be understated and not have fart cans.

Nice! Where did you get those exhaust pipes, or did you make them? If so, how?

about DRAGON...and exhaust pipe

Hi,

joecwlaw : looks good, but wondering why the windows are a bit falloff???

Sorry, but with DRAGON kit, some parts are not very realistic.....
It's not TAMIYA and this kit is from the year 1993.............
It's an old kit... and now it's very different with the quality.....

Jumpman_Z : Nice! Where did you get those exhaust pipes, or did you make them? If so, how?

By myself with some aluminium parts....



Laurent..... thanks for your messages....

Really good job, those rims definitely suit the BMW. they're from the Mercedes CLK-GTR kit right?
