    Interesting. That looks pretty good, it goes really well with the iX flares.

    There's some serious meat under that car.

      stupid question but what is the difference? it looks like a plastic bumpered car with the valance. I didn't think there was any difference between a verts front end and a non vert front end.

        The spoiler on the bottom where an iS lip or i lip usually goes has been fitted with an early euro cabrio (non-plastic bumpered) front lower spoiler. The valance is the same but that spoiler never came like that on later cars.

          Ooo..Okay, that was the only difference I could see but I didn't know it was a special piece. How hard are those to get?

              The only ones that are here are grey-market, usually brought in from Canada. BMW never brought the E30 touring to the US.

                        I think it looks cool.

                        Anybody know what wheels those are? I like them.

                          Too low, color isn't matched, doesn't line up to valance perfectly, opening in lip doesn't correspond to opening in valance, doesn't flow well with the sideskirts... I could probably say more but there's only the one picture to look at.

                            too low?!

                            there is NO SUCH THING.

                              I agree. at first glance it looked good but it doesnt work. the biggest fault is the difference in the openings in the valence and lip. still a very nice car. i think i could live with it
