      That's such a nice car. Good color for some Mtech1 I think. ;)
      The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

        Dinan chip and exhaust? CAI? Low profile tires on the same size wheels?

        I can tell you're new to the E30 world. Welcome to a forum with real information, be prepared to learn a lot.

                edit: just looked at your car again.

                Tucked bumpers
                Wheels/ tires
                Euro ellip's

                then the rest is up to you. Its your car bro. Do what you want to it. But I think the bumpers look good. I had the same exact starting point you did. Mine had worse paint and lots of dents though. Its quite a bit different now! :twisted:

                  The Dinan exhaust is just a gutted OEM piece (at least it was in previous years). A lot for what it is, not saying the OEM part is bad at all, I'd just hate to pay Dinan that much for so little R&D.

                  The Dinan chip is weak. The only programming changes are in the WOT maps, so the chip is really doing nothing for you in everyday driving. A MarkD or JimC chip change the throttle feel in every situation, and it's awesome.

                  And sorry if I came off as an ass, I'm really not. All Canadians are wicked nice, eh.

                    hey no problem man....i know a good deal of happy canadians. haha

                    and the chip and exhaust was on when i bought the car so im not complainin too much about it...but i was thinkin about switching the chip later. im not too huge on the power area though cus im mostly just doing canyon runs etc.

                          I don't really know what it is about your car (maybe it's the photography) but it looks great. A nice example of the early bumper car.

                          If that was my car, I'd do a suttle drop, 16" mesh wheels, euro smileys, and call it done.

                                I definitely think you should refinish your wheels and get a good pair of 205/50/14 or 205/55/14, I'm not exactly sure what diameter you guys run with your 14" weaves, I run 50 series tires on my 15" weaves. You lose a lot by having big diameter tires, acceleration, stiffness, etc.
