    He already stated about that in his first post.


    But anyway i never knew the car looked like this! Glad to see you got it. Can't wait for better pictures.

      Nice pick up by why are new tires under "the bad"? If good rubber is bringing you down, please send them to me. :up:

        Sweet car but doubting it's a true euro with the US spec diving board mount holes there. The Faux Alpina that keeps showing up has the same thing. EU cars have smooth sheet metal in the back where the mounts are.

        Looks like a very nice sorted car though. Looking forward to seeing in in daylight photos.

          @StereoInstaller1 Definantly will do.
          @z31maniac hahah thx
          @bataangpinoy Dad told me to change it in about 26k miles. And i agree would suck to lose the motor to something so simple :D
          @JasonC Thanks bud :D
          @Desaevious The tires are listed under the bad due to how little tread they have. :P thats why the spare basket weave is on instead of the other bbs :P
          @M-technik-3 Yes i stated earlier that the shell might of gotten swapped. Talked to my dad today about it and he said that the 323 shell had gotten rusted out and replaced with an 84 325 shell. the Euro parts got xfered over...Thanks for the compliments and hope to get daylight pics soon. it needs a bit of TLC on the paint. But being broke its gonna have to do for now :X.


          Thanks everyone for comments and compliments.

                I'd like a distance shot to see that LM Valance and iS lip w/ euro's.
                Oh wow! I totally didn't notice that! I have ALWAYS wanted to see what that looked like. I always figured there would be a huge gap under the bottom of the bumper.

                      Guys gonna try and get some Day pictures soon. Not enough hours in the day. Also i know my lip is not matching up perfectly. One of the clips has come undone and im not sure exactly how to clip it back on. Tried fooling with it a little but didnt want to force anything that i didnt know how exactly. Hopefully these are good enough for now guys. Thanks

                        Someone's been tinkering around a lot with that car. So many mismatched, upgrades here and there. I'll take your word that it's a euro 323i. Looks like a 325i engine made to work with K Jetronic.

                            Not sure how I feel about the late model valance setup. Maybe the flash makes it more noticeable?

                              Just wondering. How old are you? nice of your dad to let you have his E30. Looks really nice. I would lower it a bit. Am not feeling the late model valance. Doesnt flow to well with the euro bumpers. I would either change it for an early model euro valance or an Mtech1 kit.

                                @Motorsports Very nice of him to give me his e30. I am 26 years old. I can not lower it anymore then it is. it barly makes it into my garage the way it is. with 2 people in the car it scrapes going into my garage. With 1 person it just barly. and i mean barly clears underneath.

                                @everyone Really everyone has an opinion and i defiantly appreciate everyones opinion. But i truly at this moment love the way the car looks. I like the way my dad set it up. Maybe its more sentiment or maybe its just i really love the way it looks. But i dont plan on changing anything atm. I plan on fixing the few little issues it has. Drive it and enjoy it. Besides needing to be touched up i am truly in love with this car.
