    My 88 E30 project... Lots of pics!

    I honestly wanted to wait another few weeks until I got my front lip done and a few other random things done, but I couldn't wait. I've had my ups and downs on keeping this car, but I've finally decided I'm going to for a long time. I'll list a few of the recent mods that I have done since I have gotten it.

    K&N Intake
    Dinan Chip
    Ireland Engineering Headers
    Interior swap from tan to black
    Spacers
    15x7.5 5Ziegen Wheels
    Carpeted rear dash
    Sound Deadening Removed from rear seats
    Air blower fan removed
    NRG Racing Seats
    Removed the AC, AC lines, Heater Core and all Heater Lines
    Rear Infinity 6x9's
    Front Inifity Mids
    6k HID's, Lows and Highs
    15mm front drop hats
    Tint was re-done, %35 up front %15 on rears
    Smoked headlights ( Film )
    Smoked tail lights ( Spray )
    Smoked sidemarkers
    Painted the windshield wipers black ( They were blue )
    Front window strip
    Carbon Fiber BMW emblems
    Sparco Steering wheel & Hub
    M shifter knob and M e-brake
    Shift boot and e-brake boot
    eBay pedals
    I also have the other main stuff like subs, europlates, LTW flag, V1 radar, random internet stickers, ect

    My next plans are to black out my shadow lining, IS lip ( I tried a volvo lip and it didn't work AT ALL ), new lug nuts, install my KYB suspension, new sparco seats, Half cage with 5 point harness's,

    First day:



    After a few years of progress, this is how I bought the car.

          It's dope, I love the wheels. Could use a set of drop hats for the front though - There's a little more clearance in the front than in the back.
          WTB late model, anywhere on the east coast will go as far west as Texas for the right car at the right price. 5 speed 6cyl only.

            Read through my list, haha.
            I have 15mm drop hats, before the drop hats it was BAD. I'm going to take it back to a shop to check if the spring pads are still in.

            But thanks guys!
