    Diving boards are ugly no matter what you do to them.

    Euros are definitely the way to go.

    Agree - Tuck the diving boards and paint the plastic surrounds body color (like is standard on 'verts) - smoke the turn signal and side markers and you are set! I like the old school look of the chrome bumpers and es/is air dam much better than plastics - especially on pre-90 E30's! Euro bumpers are the next step if you really want to - but really not needed if you do the DB's right.
    The other fetish -- bumper tucking. And lowering. Yadda yadda.

    Looking good. So besides plastics, what else is in store?
    Definitely new shoes!!! I am not really into the Zenders so that will happen. I am hoping for a full respray this winter and a redo on the interior. I have a feeling that the exhaust will be going soon, so an upgrade their will also be in order;)
