    Remember the junkyard e30?

    Well its back on the road! I actually finished it a few weeks ago but my laptop took a dump so I couldn't post. Anyway here's the link to the thread showing what it looked like before.



    And here it is now.





    I'd post more pictures but I don't have enough patience with this phone. I need a new laptop asap. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks! :)

          did you replace the front valance or replace it? great to see it given a second chance.

                    That is a difficult task. It's really hard to work the valance.

                    OP, car looks great! What suspension do you have on there?

                              Wow. Kudos to you on a remarkable transformation. Does every E30 that comes your way recieve such TLC?
