Satin: Update

[lonestar22]

wheels are the only thing the car needs. change the wheels and everyone will love it. theres a certain red m3 with ssr's just as low as you on this forum that everyone is on the nuts of... just sayin

The exhaust is the only thing that is not taken care of, and you cant even see it unless you look under the car. I just re-painted the car a couple months ago... and the wheels are bbs?
But yea, stanceworks cars are way better than my piece of shit, thats for sure. In fact, i probably have one of the ugliest cars on r3v.

Other than that, part of the reason some stanceworks cars can pull the look off is that the rest of the car is usually very well taken care of. And the wheels are usually very nice. Neither of which is the case with this car.

To each his own, but I think you need to clean up the car a little bit before you worry about how low you are.

Sorry Nick, but I have to agree with this fellow here.

Well, quite a bit of material has been removed from the wheel well. I could hit a bump as fast as i want and not bottom out. Im sure grinding the pinch seam down is gonna make my car fall apart too

Even cutting the whole pinch down to the inner fender only nets you another half inch, theres still just not much room in the front fenders.

And the rear shock question?

I see what your going for. Unfortunately I don't think it really works on these cars like it does on air cooled vw's.

Man you just f@$k up the car don't do that.Can't u hear the car is crying.

[e30s52]

Wow! that looks like shit.

[1989e30325]

How can you say you have travel up front? Just because there may be room for the suspension to compress doesn't mean the body of the car will allow it. You should be bottoming out on the inner fender pinch weld at that height.

And what are you running for rear shocks?

Especially coming from half of the people saying it, your cars aren't much more to look at.

Oh fuck yeah, I think from now on "the Girlfriend/wife rule" should apply to cars.

Gonna talk shit, post up what ya got!

If this thread can't stay civil, I'm going to just lock it and trash it.

The people who are going on about him "ruining" the car, get over yourselves. This isn't a fucking 60's-era Ferrari, it's a damn E30.

Don't like it? Fine, say so. But lay off of the "this looks like shit, you're an idiot, I bet it drives like shit" garbage. Especially coming from half of the people saying it, your cars aren't much more to look at.

This.

I'm just gonna stop reading the thread now, this made me lol.

Edit: I actually wanna see it with lower offset smaller wheels and maybe flares.

And it's not like VW car guys are the only people who get their cars this low??? The JDM people do it all day every day

The jdm people do it in a different way, though. I think with smaller wheels it would look more correct?

[dnova89]

I wouldn't be surprised if him and I were the only ones on here with shorter than stock struts.
