    First Small Photoshoot Since Purchase

    Well everyone, here's the first actual pics I have of the car since I bought it two weeks ago. This is my first E30 and first foray into the Euro scene... I've had American Muscle (01 Z28 and 98 SVT Contour) and the JDM (H22 swapped 93 Accord 10th aniv sedan) fixxes. This car is easily the most fun to drive out of the cars I've owned. I need some ideas for the future for this beast. Everyone loves this car but I need to start putting my own flare into it.

    1991 BMW 318is
    -Full disassembly and paint (DuPont Chroma base/clear)
    -Struts & springs with mount bushings and all, 1.25 drop
    -New control arms w/M3 offset urethane bushings, ball joints,tie rods etc.
    -Alignment done by BMW
    -All new urethane subframe, trailing arm, diff bushings
    -Cross drilled rotors and new pads of course
    -New Michelin tires, stock weaves painted smoke silver as well
    -New Alternator, and new belts
    -Lights are new and HID even though people hate them

    Very nice car, was this from another forum member?

    I'm pretty sure I saw the for sale thread and I hope you didn't pay the asking price.

    Good luck!

          Did you drop 10K on a 318is?

          No offense intended, it's a lovely car, I'm just curious.

            Shit No! 10K? lol, less than half that! I need some ideas for this thing though for the future... I like Ronal Turbos, IS Lip etc. Needs some interior work as well. What's the consensus around here, as you can see I haven't been a member for long. Also what is the DDE MikeK was speaking of? I'm not up on the R3V lingo just yet.

              Clean car! Ronal Turbos would look good. But needs chrome kidneys and a US plate filler for the rear.

                Change the lights, they look retarded.
                Chrome kidneys, iS lip, drop. Maybe some ronals or something in the future.

                    I must be the only one that likes the angel eyes. Which emblems the cf roundels? Trying to keep it all red and black if possible.

                            Mucho potential.

                            I'm gonna do it.........I like the black angel eyes. There I said it. I quietly await my punishment.

                              You have bad taste.
