    e30 vert new project started, bunch of pics, May 2008

    this is the last of the e30 verts that I had in my yard. I bought it last year and just got the chance to bring it inside the shop.
    It will get plastic bumperes swap + tricked front airdam, side skrts and rear valance, it will be dropped on some dope rims, it will get new top as well. The interior is already fixed, seats were partially recovered, few other small parts and updates will follow (MOMO, etc..)

    just started to take it appart





    3rd brake light eliminated and the holes are welded









    all the dents, scratches and other imprefections are getting fixed









    plastic bumpers and front valance are ready for the swap

    Great start vlad! :up:

    Any suggestion on how to mount the rear plastic bumper? In the process of upgrading my bumpers and have a tough time figuring out the rear. Thanks!

        Nice shop you have there! Not to be a dick but you could have saved some time and a bit of cash by simply swapping the vert trunk lid for one from a coupe. Are you going to fab up a custom 3rd break light to stay legal? If so post the details.

                            At least to me stuff like this seems like a way better way to spend lots of money than having one or two exotics. Bravo
