My 90 cabby

[N2MYE30]

You gotta nice cabrio there! For your bumper issue, id rock euro bumpers on your car if you can find the pieces as BDKs' attached pic shows. HOT! Plastics look great too but better on a car that came with them due to the fact that rear valance is lower on a later model. Yes, this can be fixed, but it aint simple. Janderson has a thread on how he did it, and it came out perfect.

I have the same Indigo Leather in mine and I wasnt sold on it at first but what set it apart from the rest of the crowd was the matching blue top. Your top was prolly blue originally. Git ya some rear headrest and call it done! Dont change the color!

Looks great!!!!

I also have a '87 vert. Looks like there are a ton of lachsilber verts out there...we need to start our own thread.

Are you talking about my car? Because mines a 90 sterlingsilber-metallic.

Haha thanks! The blue is really starting to grow on me day after day.

What should I put in the empty spot for the diving boards?

Oh hell...you only asked how to get rid of them....I am gonna hack some up to make bumpers that look like plastics, fit like plastics (no shrouds or endcaps!) but are aluminum.

Just as soon as I learn how to weld aluminum, that is.

BTW, Euros look sweet on a 'vert.

Hey there Sirpopsalot, I've never been a fan of these types of BMW's. I think they're a little boxy, and the interior being black would kind of make it emo-ish or goth, so try to keep it the way it is, and not make it less gay.

Sorry for the bad criticism, but it looks like you're more of a ricer, try to shoot for a 240.

this is your first post? GTFO and dont come back asshole!

OP, that vert looks clean! and you have alot of options factory/period correct options that wont look like a shitty body kit. first you have to decide on bumpers (diving boards, euro, or plastic). No matter what you choose, you can do alot! Everyone says that it is very easy to go to plastic bumpers, but i havent tried so i really dont know.

As for the interior, i would keep it. i dont see alot of verts with blue, just black or tan.

woops:D

So I decided I'm going to go with leaving the interior blue and swapping on some euro goodies. Thanks for all the positive feedback!

[McGyver]

if you're going euro, then you're gonna want smilies and euro grills!

see, that's a matter of opinion...
since I used to have euro 5's before the e30,
I like the look of the rear end with plastics without the later lower rear valance,
it looks very simular to the ass end of a euro 5, high and tight...like my women, nice tight high rear end...
never been a fan of junk in the trunk low rear ends
:pimp:

so you want it to be gay, but yet you bash his car anyway

[KARIME302]

Look clean

[e30rapidic]

go with euro bumpers, mine originally had the diving boards. I also swapped valances though but the US one will work.




need a newer pic, have smileys and headlight wipers now.....but no engine!

[mightywhitey]

I like the blue.

[mbulsa]

How does it look more ricer!? And I used to own a 240 and I was NOT a ricer!

I think the Cabby looks good.

i love cabby's haha, and your car doesn't look riced at all
