Chrome BMW M3 (E46)

Hope it's not a repost!
A very convincing paint job, it's not really chrome plated is it?

Re: Chrome BMW M3 (E46)

Anybody else notice the F40 tail section in the first pic? A yellow one at that!

The car almsot looked good, if it was stock, like the Audis and Mercedes I've seen with similar jobs. The front wheels looks way too small and the gap between the fender and tires is GM-off.

The gap looks wierd because the engine is out of the car.

Pretty sure its metallic paint.

Re: Chrome BMW M3 (E46)

We decided it was paint last time it was posted.

Still cool though.

A chrome Skyline, some other chrome car that looked like a VW, now a BMW...its paint, do you know how much time, money, labor would go into REAL chrome, plus every website says its paint.

My apologies,
I typed in "Chrome BMW E46" into "search forum" and nothing came up, so I posted it.
Feel free to lock/delete thread!

Re: Chrome BMW M3 (E46)

Whoops sorry, just went through it the 3rd time and saw the price just now. My eyes don't catch it as well in French. Thanks though.
