    Maybe if you pull up next to a pool and let hot women jump off of your diving board.

    Seriously....that's the only time I'd like them.


    Oh...and pushing shopping carts 30+ miles per hour into a curb is awesome too....HAHAAA

    Visibility of spare tire well and exhaust
    (lack of rear valence)

    really turns me off..

    If I had a db car - I'd be more concerned about finding any form of acceptable rear valence than I would about going to plastics.

    The gray one is awesome - very similar to my car's stance. H&R Race?

    Gaps? You mean the holes in the valance? Someday down the road ill get a euro valance, but going to school is more important right now. Its really the least of my concerns.

    To be honest, you need to figure out those gigantic gaps on the red one. I will stick with my aluminum.
    If I want plastic I will buy a plastic bumpered car.

    You try to tell yourself they look good till you delete them... I went to euros on one car and plastics on the other... What would you rather have.. Both cars are 87s..

    If the rest of the car is hot and there tucked you can look past the DB

    I like em, +1 on shaved side markers ;)

    Also, it IS nice to be able to walk on your bumpers for enjoyment.

    Hahaha. i wondered if any of those pics would show up. I just had painted sigs and a removed plate mount with the bumper painted to match underneath. Looked good from like 15' away but was halfassing it in my eyes.



    Few changes. I don't mind them now, but I wish I had the time to shave out the sidemarkers. I have the nonsense to do it lying around and no time.

    Also have euros that I was going to work some magic on, but I'm probably selling em.

    The only reason I am content with diving boards (on E30s) is because the later cars with plastics were heavy... Theres around 200 to 250lbs more weight in the late cars than there was in the early cars... SUCKAS!!

    Euro bumpers on an early body is the best possible combo, period. Why go through the trouble of sticking a 240hp S50 into your late car when you are already at a 200lb disadvantage?
    If the extra weight is the result of plastic bumpers, then there no worse place for the additional poundage - as far aft of the axles as possible and relatively high :shock:

    Late arches look good on cabby's, but I like big arches on coupes. Either way with sedans.

    The 'copper' car with the 'oxidization'(?) is a prime example of why I like DB's.

    Nice!

    I like that valence with the non-tucked DB's too. That valence, when viewed from the side of the car, has a perfect transition from the wheel arch to the base (bottom edge) of the spoiler... a thing of beauty.
