    Hahahaha jesus what an old thread. I bought this car, kept it for a year and sold it already.

    Anyhow.. I think it has potential. If you cut every single grille (center/brake ducts) and work it out nicely with a lip, it might turn into something nice.

      I don't like it and don't think it will ever be nice.

      It's too wide, the rest of the bottom of the e30 body curves in where this thing goes straight down, so nothing lines up overall on the car. It looks like it got punched in the mouth.

      Besides that, I'm surprised it actually fits as well as it does, and good job on the creative effort.

        Don't listen to Josh. He's just voicing his opinion as much as possible, and its just that, an opinion.

          Why, so I can just say the exact same thing as everyone else? I'll say what I please, and express my opinion to the point I feel is saying what I want to say. I think it looks absolutely awful. I'm not just going to say "nay", because that doesn't cover what I feel about it.

            lol, these sort of chastisements crack me up. Is the comment "It looks like a steaming pile of crap" too harsh? Because that's what I'm going to say. I'm sure it looks even worse in person. So he got it to "fit" a little, big friggin deal. Thanks for sharing how aweful it looks so that I will never try to do it.

              Thank you. If you can't take criticisms about your car, don't post the fucking thing on public internet forums.

                Agree, but at the same time, I don't bash on styling choices because everyone has a different opinion. I know from owning an e36 that the contours of the front end/bumper are completley different than the e30, but I say to each his own. Can't look any worse than some of the other monstrosities I've seen. Oh, and BTW, while we are on the topic of honestly talking about style, I really hate your wheels.....and I'm not joking, I think they don't look right on an e30. Not that I give a shit, cuz Its yor car, not mine, but some basketweaves, or some other BBS styles, maybe, but those would not find their way onto mine LOL. :) Just my opinion, but ya gotta be able to take cricitism, right?

                      I was talking about Josh's wheels, BTW, if anyone didn't get that. Am I being sarcastic? Yes, but I still think they are ugly wheels, and figured I would bring it up while on the topic of ugly mods :)

                        I don't think that it looks that bad at all. I would ditch the front plate holder though

                          Oh for the love of god...

                          I don't like the way that bumper looks on the car. It looks bad in my opinion.

                          Basic enough for you?

                            Absolutely, and very civil. I sincerely appreciate your opinion.
