DIY- Taking a $450 "barn find" classic BMW and transforming the appearance with vinyl wrap

in #cars7 years ago

Youtuber that is new to steemit and excited to share our classic BMW e21 transformation. We used vinyl wrap to change the horrible gold flaking paint into a gloss orange. We show you how to vinyl wrap your car to fix your bad paint job.

Part 1 is the prepping period. (

It is so fascinating to see how much a car can be transformed when someone with passion gets ahold of it. I can't wait to do this when I get a car

Thank you for your comment! I always wanted this car and I always wanted it to be orange, now that I could finally afford one I made my dreams reality. I hope you get your car soon!

Nice to see some DIY work. I should say that for a racer and fast/cheap mod of making its looks better this is not a bad idea. I admit that there isn't a better thing than full, nice restoration. Tell us more about the engine, will you keep the original or plant in something more modest?

For more of my automotive thoughts, see my blog.

Hi thank you for checking out my post! As for the engine, we will be keeping it but we have a lot of desert where we are located so we are planning on using the car to go out to the desert and have fun. When the engine blows we are going to put an m50 engine in it which is an inline 6 bmw engine. Following you now!
