    The most eurocized E30

    I'm writing an article on adding euro spec parts to US spec cars. I have an E28 that I'll be discussing and I want to discuss the E30 as well. I'm trying to figure out who has the most euro-cized E30. I'm looking for both external mods as well as internal mods as well. Pics would be helpful

    Also, what's your favorite euro part and your most unique euro part to add to an E30?

          I'm assuming you are seeking a E30 which is graced with many FACTORY euro-spec bits, correct? Not some Neon blue thing with 16x10 wheels that have a ET7 offset.

            Correct Jon. However 3rd party euro bits are OK, so Ryan Stewart's car would be a good example.

                3rd party bits: Alpina, AC Schnitzer, Hartge, Racing Dynamics, etc.

                Where's Alpina Dave when you need him :?

                  um I have an imported 85 323i Baur TC. It has an aftermarket Kamei X-1 body kit. It also has the Bavaria package on it which was an upgraded head unit that was top of the line at that time and has a clear red plate filler in the back that says bavaria. It has the gas in liters and german check control and all the other euro stuff like rear fogs sicne it is a euro car. Only problem is the US bastardized it with its side markers when it was imported and put a gay sticker above the gas tank that says unleaded fuel only.

                      It seems to me that the most common Euro mod done to E30's is Euro-smiley head lights..
                      Euro bumpers seem to be highly liked as well
