    Silver on silver is the ultimate German look from the 90s. I love it. The fitment and stance is perfect on this car.

    That spoiler just sets off the look for a M car. And still looks factory. And those throwing stars look like the older M car look. Nice job gentlemen.

    18:56 - 3M also makes adhesion promoter wipes that you would use prior to this double sided tape. The wipes make the surface sticky AF!
    I love Augment Wheels man! 😎🏆💪💖

    • @bgee461
      @bgee461 Місяць тому +2

      I worked for an injection molding place, and we installed double sided tape and clips and stuff for oem fender flares, we used this adhesion promoter and it definitely works wonders. It slightly melts the plastic so the adhesive actually cross links to the part.

    My Integra has had various leaks for most of my 23 year ownership. I’m about to pull the engine out to reseal everything. Hoping to be leak free after that. Did the same to my Miata 2 years ago and it’s still leak free which is an awesome feeling.

    How does the Honeysealing hold up over the years? Is it worth doing? I always thought it seemed like one of the best undercoating options.

    • @BCJDM
      @BCJDM Місяць тому +1

      I've looked into it also. Its the best option but you might have to get the underbody dry ice blasted first unless its a new car and the underbody is still clean. You might be able to find more info from honeyseal oakville

    Funny… I saw the first E34 M5 that I’ve seen in a very long time (in silver!) at Cars and Coffee this morning. Then I get home and this is the first thing in my UA-cam feed. I love those old boxy body styles.
    I agree that those throwing star style wheels look the best on those cars.
