Car with the fresh blacked out grill, tint, and the roof rack
This is my car on the first day!As some of you know, I managed to save up enough money over the summer by working at WTB and ABO to buy a car that i have wanted for a while now.
Found the right one located in beaverton, OR, which is close to portland.

I stopped posting on that site becuase i hated people being assholes! so i thought i would continue on this, along with other activities.
So now i own a 1991 bmw 318iS. shes awesome! im still on the fence about a name, but I'm leaning towards Wanda. She has 176,000 miles, but recieved a rebuilt engine about 7k ago. starting in september when i got her, i have been working on her nonstop! some of the first things i did were:
-New sound system - consisted of 200w nakamichi amp, 1200w sony amp, (2) apine type-S 10'' subs, 2 Rockford Phosgate 6 1/2 rear deck speakers, and an alpine headunit with ipod plugin. i got the nakmichi wired to the rear deck and the sony amp wired to the subs with a 1.6 farad capacitor.
-I got my windows tinted at total eclipse auto spa of marin 35% in the front and 20% in the back. these guys know what they are doing! it looks sooo good.
Oh, i forgot to mention that the car already came with bilstein shocks and eibach springs.
-for some routine maintinence i replaced the radiotor and thermostat, due to my engine overheating on my way to work!
- i also put a full thule roof rack with room for two bikes
that was about all i could do while at home in marin, i moved down to our new off campus house on western Dr. in Santa Cruz
