Tired of looking at the failed clear-coat on the hood of my 95 GMC K1500, I decided to give it a go on repainting. Since we have no garage, I used our 12 x 12 Ezup to make a makeshift paint booth. Wanting filtered airflow to prevent the clear coat mist from setting on the final finish(tomorrow), I built my own filtering system for less than $20. Hey, it's all about the little victories right. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

Watching YouTube videos on how to set up spray guns for the paint job I'm doing tomorrow. I crack open a fortune cookie that's been sitting on our counter for six months...

325e: "e" for "eta", the physical for Energy conversion efficiency
328ci: "c" for Coupe and Cabrio, "i" for Injection
Z3: "Z" for Roadstar (no idea why "Z")
M3: "M" for Motorsport
X3 and iX models: "X" in front is for Off road vehicle, "X" behind is for All wheel drive

The E in front of the model type is for Entwicklungsreihe

You could buy the badges from the accessory catalog back in the day.

True, I just thought it was funny nonetheless. Especially with the looming painting project.

I hear ya and completely admire your DYI spirit!! Worked in a body shop through high school and was put in the primer booth without a respirator LOTS of hours. Headache and blowing grey stuff out of my nose for days. Sucked!
