thx
Thanks, the paint is called gletscherblau
Thanks for the kind words :)
Hmm, I'm actually leaning towards a more open tint with a hint of blue, don't want any problem with the five-o.
Yea that's true, I liked what top gear did with lights in the latest season, so I tried to mimic that a bit.
Might grab some from the local scrap yard just too see how it looks, but as someone said in this forum, tint lights = black kidneys, stock lights = chrome.
Thanks :D
16x9, ET... think it was below 20 at least.
Thanks, I was psyched getting these... they're a bit damaged around the edges and some scratches and what not so I'll be refurbishing them during the winter probably.
Thanks! The color really grabs your attention doesn't it? :) it's a bit rare even here in europe with the touring side skirts and it came like that from factory, anyone else know if any other color coupé came with touring skirts?
Here's some pics of the interior. I'm considering changing the steering-wheel since alcantara easily gets worned out.
The z3 1.9 shifter is about the same height as stock e30 so no height changes there.


I really need sportseats! :hitler:Comment

very very nice. But three things: yes i agree that you should paint the underside of the body flat black, the part that sticks out past the sideskirts, so you don't see it. Also, don't get bigger tires, lower it instead. And third, the interior looks awesome, but not so sure about the blue shift boot. The color is a bit off, maybe it should be black or the same blue as your e-brake boot.
Other than that, extremely clean car, and i love those wheels!!Comment

The interior looks nice. Is the Blue center consol, glove box etc stock, or just painted to match the door cards? Never seen one done like that. niceComment

A perfect example of why Azevs are my favorite wheels!

I'm afraid that if I lower the car anymore I won't be able to exit my garage :P, I'm already scraping as it is... even if I go sideways over it :nice:
Also the shiftboot is not that screechy in real life, but yea... doesn't fit in completely, would be great if I found something like the e-brake boot or something in nice black alcantara or leather.
Wow that is like the greatest praise :) your vert is awesome, must be a beauty too see in that color.
Thanks, it's all stock as far as I know, haven't seen it anywhere either.
I think they released a couple of these gletscherblau e30s during 90-91 with touring skirts, blue interior, blue seatbelts! which I've not seen elsewhere either.
This guy is like the only other guy I've seen with this combo.
Hells yea! High five!
I've got working on my speaker setup for the rear shelf, the previous owner had a blast tearing thru it, here's a pic:

So I have worked all day and come up with this to cover that shit!


I'll put them on tomorrow.
I'm quite satisfied with the result myself, after all it's my first time playing with car speakers =)
I just hope the fabric matches with the shelf :), how does it look?
Oh and funny thing is, the speaker color is almost the exact same color of my car, I bought them without thinking about it =)Comment

Car looks sweet. Dont change a thing. I think i wouldnt even do the tint. Car is perfect the way it is.sigpicComment

Thanks everyone! I might do a light blue tint cause the windows look a bit more dark in the pics than what they are IRL, must be the reflection...
Got around mounting the speakers today, pulling speaker wire to the trunk is a bitch! Well not that bad but I messed up so I had to de/mount the back-seat twice
I'm satisfied with the result, could have been better, but since the rear shelf was so butchered this will have to do.



They sound great but a bit harsh now since they're brand new, they'll probably get a bit softer after I've used them a while.
Anyone got a blue seatbelt for the back-seat? springs were broken in one of them so I'm missing one, or can they be repaired?Comment

This car, with it's stock parts, shows that the factory got it right with the e30. Thanks for sharing the pics.sigpic
