        incredible! i don't like chrome wheels but those look great. I also don't like the tan interior but you pull it off very well! Never seen tan vaders before in an e30, are they hooked up? If so... A+

            The whole exhaust is custom, the muffler is a Magnaflow, supposedly stainless, 3" inlet 2x2.5 outlets with 2 dual walled tips.
            The wheels are J line 20rl2, custom semi polished face with polished lips and caps.

            Haha, the vaders take some getting used to. Yes it is the car in the sig.

            I actually agree with you, I didnt want the tails so dark, but while painting them I couldnt get them to match. Im getting another set and going to work on those. I also thought about getting chrome kidneys to match the wheels.

            Love the wheels, proper stance and camber, exhaust is awesome, LOVE the Vaders (but damn, you need all black in a bad way!) and so many other excellent details!

            I do have a question though...why do the surrounds of your sidemarkers look so crappy in the pics? I know they aren't, look at the rest of the car!

            Gorgeous work. Heads must turn everywhere that car rolls!

            Haha, I like the contrast, all of my prior cars have had black hole interiors. I got the rear seat custom upholstered to match the fronts. I am also going to get the M tech wheel redid with beige leather, and the shift boot and ebrake boot in Sand. I may also do the door pulls and cards.

            I think it is the actual black part of the side marker. It may be a bit faded, some back to black should fix it. I know what you are talking about though.

            I rub as it is now, because of the spacers to clear the brakes. When I work on the fenders I may move up to 215.

            Great work man! What'd you end up doing for a/c?
            Haha, thanks.

            I used the adaptor for the low pressure side, and had a customer high pressure line made from the condensor to the compressor. I also wired in an AUX fan in the front. I do have the idle creep people talk about while the A/C is on though.

            Regardless everything is amazing!

            Thanks, I used to have the wheels in gold, the initial plan was to paint these gunmetal as opposed to semi polished but I changed course. I would never go black though, I am not too fond of black wheels with polished lips.

              It actually Imola Red II so it is pretty deep.

              Thanks.

              Thank you.
              The power function is hooked up, the also have heat, but I am looking for OEM e36 switches to wire up the heating function with an OEM look.

                      On SW 104 and US1 there used to be meets at the old Fuddruckers, I remember everyone used to go. I haven't lived in Miami in a few years so I could see how they would have moved cause of the pigs, I heard they really cracked down. There's also the meets in Davie but that's far...

                          you need tan doorcards. not a fan of the rims or the vaders (until the rest of your interior is tan anyway.)

                          but you are definitely doing it right in a big way. props.

                                I have Vaders, they're not the most comfy. Especially my worn in driver seat, I am going to replace the cushions with the passenger cushions which is better. E30 Recaros offer more support.
