Convinced the wife to drive an E30= results (warning huge pix)

[bp9129]

Dude I would never let my gf/wife/or anyone that I care for drive an old e30. And especially an old beat pos crpped out looking cut-spring riding e30.
Good luck man.

And wtf is going on with the front valance? Did you or a po put on a early metal valance?

Word.... At least replace the suspension for her and make it look a little cleaner. Youll find your girl beached on a speed bump or broken down in the middle of nowhere real quick. Either way shit would irk me if I were in your position. Im just sayin though

And the lip was taken off today I put it on for my own fix of sense of humor. oh AGAIN Springs get changed in two weeks with tax money but I guess you didnt read that part huh.

I did read every word of what you posted. I'm not gonna comment again on your decision or reasons, thats between you two and your crack dealer.

Also i wasn't comment on your hacked Volvo air damn, I was commentingon the actual metal valance on the car. The car is obviously a 88 model that been in several wrecks in its lifetime (and at least one more to come, I'm sure) and somehow ended up with a early pre-facelift metal valance instead of the correct late plastic bumper type valance.

Well for that I apoligize, and yea I guess the Po changed it up on me and actually put it on his other e30 and left this one with the valance it has now. If I dont find the right valance this week at the pick n pull with the Plastic bumpers to come with it ill probably leave it as is and tuck the bumper or something. Im mostly more concerned about how low it is, I forgot how low those cut H&R's where and ended up regreting it at the end but it was dark and really didnt have the energy to throw the stock ones back on. Anyway im lurking around the classifieds for a cheap set of lowering springs and yesterday I picked up a nice set of semi new billis. I understand your comments I guess I just didnt agree how you came about it, its all good and thanx your advice was taken into a lot of consideration.

Why not? I happen to LOVE the E30. And although sometimes the coils get annoying I couldn't be happier. I Love this car so much.

^Yeah but yours is probably in good, functional shape. Plus youre kinda sexy

Shes actually doing really good. She was driving all day yesterday with me on the passanger side and I gotta admit im not to worried about it. she does the speed bump sideways thing and also on drive ways and is really good at looking for pot holes and all that. I think shes in love lol.:D

Tuck the bumpers, space those wheels and you're done! Looks clean and it is awesome she loves it!!

Till you have to change an oil pan xD

It has its problems just like most E30's haha.
The hardtop drips on me when its raining really hard.

Cant wait till the oil pan gets its nice hit lol....hopefully it last for the next couple weeks.

EDIT: ill probably be the one drving it for the next few weeks (or at least till it gets its new springs and shocks soon). I have no doubt in my mind my girl can drive a lowered car but her safety is my concern and well I guess it has to come back up =(

[Yeee30]

Sweet. Can't wait to see it at the meet erick.

[NuthinFancy]

Thanx cant wait for that meet either im so bored out here haha.

I wish I could trust my girl car let alone a lowered e30, but she remains chained in the kitchen.
