    New to the forum - pic's included

    Relativley new to the forum here, i've been around but not posting. Anyway, i've got a 86 325 with 130k on the clock. I bought the car 2 years ago when i was 18 off an elderly man for 700 dollars. It was in pretty rough shape when i picked it up but i've been doing some work to it with my father, who's a mechanic. Anyways, so far this whole projects been done on a budget, so far about about 2k invested. Just wondering what you guys think, or any suggestions on what to do next. (Rear window trim is on the way already)

    Current Mod list
    JC Chip
    H&R Springs
    16" Borbet Type R's
    ANSA catback exhaust
    87is front valance and trunk
    Leather Ebrake boot
    moderate tint (cops are strict)
    Thats about all so far...

    Here's some pic's i've taken.

      You sure that is an '86? There was no 86 325is. "87 maybe with a 1986 build date?

      Nice car for 700 bucks. Keep at it.

                              But those diving boards are begging to be tucked abit.
