    Intro and a question.

    Hey guys, I've been lurking here since I got my e30 back in April. I love the community here, and I wanna be a part of it. My first car, I love it. My parents love it and they both want BMW's now.
    271,000 miles, recently rebuilt 5 speed, and the PO was a BMW tech. I love it. I don't plan on slamming it, no tire stretch, non of that nonsense. The only thing different from the picture is the fact that it's on BMW steelies (15" I think) Which I'm gonna keep because I hate bottlecaps.

    Anyway, a friend of mine was recently told by his dad to get rid of the old rotting 86 325es in their yard. My front seatbelts are both kinda tired, and the drivers side is starting to fray badly. I'm getting both the front seatbelts, and a VERY nice tan leather rear seat. For 50 bucks. The seat needs some love, its kinda dry and has some very small cracks along the top, not into the foam yet though. If I give the seat the love it needs, you think I could make some money from it? I have no use for it, I have a gray cloth comfort interior, and the tan seat would look hideous. The front seats are sport seats, the passenger side is clean, but the drivers side is fucked. otherwise I would've snatched them up too.
    It's not bad paint, it's called "patina"

    Sport seats are desirable. Get them re done in your color and install them.

      I would love to if I had a place to store them and money to get it done. I am a highschool student, so that is sadly not an option for me. However, I have recently spoken to the guy and he said he'd throw in the passenger seat for 10 bucks ( wanted to keep the driver seat idk why) So I'm thinking I'm gonna make little bracket to use it as a seat for my room until I get another one and funds get them redone correctly.

        For 10 bucks, how can you say no?

          Exactly. I'm making a lounge chair out of it until I can find a drivers side and get them both redone.

            ^yup, i've got a single tan vynil sport seat chilling out in my apartment - pretty awesome lounge chair actually, if you tilt it back a little.
            Nice pickup on the car too! Looks pretty damn clean - love that colour on e30s
