    A couple additions, still no motor.........

    Well, the motor is still out but it's finally making progress, I am going to assemble the bottom end tonight. Anyway, here's my new mirrors, new steering wheel, ///M stripe, E36 switches [sorry that pic is blurry]. Tell me what you think about everything guys.

    Give me your mirrors now!

    Or at least tell me where you got them so I can snab a pair.

          Your car and IL DUCE should seriously meet up and have a little "blacked out" photoshoot. I love the mean look. I like your M stripes on any other color I don't know if a E30 non M could look so sexay. Good work.

              It's turning out mighty nice. I'm not a fan of the blackweaves though.

                That's a clean car you have dude, did you paint your window trim or is that factory shadowline? Not a huge fan of the mirrors, I prefer the shape of the factory motorsport mirror frames. Is that a 310/320mm Momo? I found that size to be a PITA for a street car, impossible to read the gauges. A 350mm Momo seems almost perfect.

                Clean chassis though 8)

                  Dan, the mirrors are from swarz on e30tech, I have no clue where to find another set.

                  Stu, yes it's either a 310 or 320, very small. I obviously haven't driven the car but feeling the wheel I surer can't wait. You're right about it blocking the gauges a bit but I should be able to deal with it. Oh, and the shadowline was done by me with SEM.

                  Thanks guys, keep the comments flowing.

                  PS. yes that's a pile of shit Bravada, not mine but a friend's.

                        Motor is pretty much stock with a couple tiny aditions and a couple things removed.

                        E36 window switches were installed in to the E30 wiring via a test light and butt connectors

                          You should pull up those switches to show us which wires connect to which (e36 switch -> e30 wiring)

                              Everything looks good - - except for those mirrors. Sorry, not diggin those.

                              Decal on the hood is nice. As are the French fogs on the uber black!
