          anyone more pictures of the racing dynamics one?

          i noticed that on some cars it looks smaller than on others. i cant seem to find enough pictures to get a real good look at one.

          now that i have seen some pictures of the zender one, i think i want to find one. it is to bad that i cant. i really want one. or there is the ac schnizter one for sale, but i dont know if it will fit my car.

          anyone have pictures of these three: ac schnizter, zender, or racing dynamics on a pre88 car with alum. bumpers?

          thanks

              Brandon's car has Zender side skirts and rear apron. I agree, the RD apron is really low and will appear mismatched unless you have the right side skirts to match. My RDs sides don't really match, so I'm gonna dump em soon.

              I found an old BavAuto catalog from 1999 that shows a bunch of E30s with Zender, Kamei, AC Scnhnitzer, and RD bodykits. I'll try to scan em or take digital pics later.

                  That is a zender? that is what i want, or an AC. to bad they are hard to find.

                  Doesn't ryan's car have the RD rear skirt and no sides? his car looks pretty good though. that is what i am thinking of doing. no sides just front and rear. with repainted rocker panels.

                  yeah see if you can find those pics, that would be awesome. thanks

                      I just realized that Brandon may have a Kaminari rear skirt and Zender side skirts instead of Zender all the way around. Anyway, here are a few scans (sorry for the bad quality):







                      Chris, I'll send you an email in the morning. There's been a lot of things that have happened lately, hehe.

                        Wow that RED 88 325is: yes! 8) That car proves to me that the RD rear skirt will fit my car. Some catalogs say it won't fit the 88 model...Even the dumb ass people at Bav auto told me that the RD skirt will not fir my car :roll: The proof is in thier own catalog :roll: :roll:

                        A little off topic..but I have authentic ACS side skirts..will these match with a 88+ alpina spoiler and a RD rer and a ACS rear spoiler?

                        this is the combo I plan to go with in the next 2 months or so :D

                        P.S. Fred I've always loved your car. IS a triflo exhaust for an E30 straight (I hope it is) unlike the angled stock 325i exhausts? Anyone know? Looks like stock 325i exhausts will be stuck inside the RD rear skirt..

                        thanks

                            Jim, the RD apron does fit. There's even an 1980's RD advertisement on my websit with an '88 that shows it:



                            I dunno about the Alpina front airdam cause I forgot how it looks, but the AC sides and RD rear would look okay IMHO. But honestly, I'd try to get an M-Technic II front instead. The only problem with the RD rear is that the factory exhaust tips (or any aftermarket muffler with slant tips, like Supersprint) will burn a hole in it and will be hidden and look tucked away. You'll need something with straight tips to prevent that from happening, like a Stromung. I'm not sure about the B&B, but they are horrendously loud so I'd look into the Stromung.

                            Nick, I honestly want to put my other side skirts ASAP but something always comes up (moneywise, I mean). If things go as planned, I'll have em off late January/early February. If that happens, I'll let ya know ;).

                              What kind of rear skirt is that? Looks to good to be aftermarket!

                              PS I may be buying this car, just shot the guy an email. It is an eta, but it is eurospec! Hopefully I can buy it then save some money for an engine swap. Will save me lots of money trying to get my car to look right!

                                That car has the nasty side markers in the fenders.
                                Are those M-tech I skirts?
