But we can't have a project car looking bone stock, either. To this end, we went with the brightest red paint we could find. It's not a known color, it's just the pure red tint that the Glasurit company uses to mix their other reds. The black trim on our project is not new. This stuff goes on easy out of a spray can, has lasted over a year without a nick or any fading - and is, cheap.
Details make the difference when building a project car.
We wanted something to add some pizzazz, so we opted for some PIAA driving lights. These lights are very straightforward to install give the car a sportier look, and are very practical at night. We originally installed the factory alloy wheels under our car. Although we thought we would like the subtle look of these nicely restored alloys, it wasn't enough. We were so thrilled by the look of the four-spoke Revolution Wheels on our project BMW 2002 that we went back to Racing Wheel Services for another set.
