As nice as it would look i wouldnt bother. Nobody would buy it afterwards It looks great in black anyway, although i would stop spending money on it until you finally decide that if you love it or not.

It does need a respray Fad unless you can work some anti stonechipturnedintorustyspot magic?! White would look tricking amazing. Ive been on google images and giving myself ideas haha.

Ray Bans are standard issue Fadders

Pretty much every metal panel has a chip in it that has gone rusty. Not to mention the poor condition of paint and countless touch ups. Would like a blow over, but tbh if i am going through the expense may as well get something cool!

Probably wont do it, but i am tempted.

Heres a pic to tempt me:

white suits the coupe better than the convertible.

it's not a peugeot, it's got class. keep to the darker colours.

also fakebans

I think it looks really modern, plus its rare. Not sure the Evo came in Alpine white, just the 3.0.

Just love the front and rear end in white

Nice work Jambo. Its all the niggly issues that make a good car annoying. Once you have worked your way through it will be fully awesome.

agree with jon here. they may seem like little things but they're the ones that stand out the most to a perfectionist owner of his pride and joy.

i messed up a small piece of plastic when i was taking apart the centre console. it's not broken, but it has indents in from a screwdriver. could just leave it but it annoys the hell out of me.

I could Seth but I think I would rather it was a "proper" job.

I like the tangos tbh!

Thanks for the lovely comments guys, and FYI don't leave the hood off your M3 when it's über windy. Looks like a tree shed its skin on my seats and floor pan

Guess I know what I'm up to tommorow morning
