    bumper tucking pics?

    I just got done reading the tutorial from josh, do we have any pics of a successful E30 with tucked diving boards? how much of a difference cosmetically is there?

          Tucked bumpers own on early cars. Do it!

            i think i might, i'm about to TOTALLY get the engine rebuilt, alot of peeps keep telling me to swap the S50 and do workon that, i know that would be the thing to do if i wanted MAX power, but i really want my M20... so i'm about to swap all pistons, cam, reinforced springs, rockers, ect...

            perhaps the tucked bumpers will look nice after i'm done. i'm trying to get some nice throwing star type wheels as well.... DANG those pics of the IS look hot, i'm def going to tuck my bumpers now...

                          Ya, mine went in super far, the air dam basically fits flush, its gangsta. I have not done the rear though. I like to sit on it.



                          Man looking at pics of my car in the summer makes me said. Now I am on steelies and stock air dam.

                          Sold it.

                            ok, 2 out of 3 of the cars i;ve seen, the rubber molding OVER the bumper is all wavy and kinda tacky, is this an effect of pushing the bumper in? or is it because the molding is old?

                              My molding is very curvy too, haven't seen many without the molding curvy and not sitting on the bumper. I'm weighing my options to get rid of the diving boards all together.
