    Install an OEM mtech-2 kit and then post your opinion. Same deal - you have to drill holes.

    And for the record, you can plug a hole with a weld if you wanted to repaint.

    It's not like if you drill some holes in your e30 the front will just fall off. Most e30's are designed so that the front won't fall off at all. Very strict German engineering standards you know.

      I don't hate it.. Kind of reminds me of some groupe 2 2002 or groupe 5 e21 box flares.

        A couple holes on the edge of the fenders and along the bottom sill to install the side pods of the M tech 2 kit doesn't really compare to the number of holes and locations that are pictured in the rendering. I count 30+ holes just on the drivers side alone. Swiss cheesing an E30 is a pretty big commitment. I don't care if you could weld 100 holes, it's ruined.

            Excepting the Wing and the price, I like this.
            Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what the Wheel/Tire specs are?

                Rocket bunny body kits are more at home on stancemobiles and other tasteless gaudy crap than on something which is actually fast.

                    I don't know but this is my friends E36 M3... it was a perfect M3 before he decided to put the kit... It's a show car but he drives it daily ... I say it's just about taste... I have an extra E30 that I'm deciding if we gonna cut it or leave stock... My friend already tagged me regarding the Pandem E30 kit... so It's all about the budget right now... but if i get a few sponsorship I might pull the trigger...

                        Yea I would love to see this Pandem E30 Kit on a track... and see how it function... And for the suspension... I think static on the rear and bag upfront would be nice...
