          Who says you can't daily a slammed e30? If it were my car, I'd go lower, then new wheels, then an IS front lip. Done.

            Euro weaves, get a bit more low, shadow line(IMO) and get rid of that awful antenna. OEM would clean up the body flow a ton.

            Other then that I love it! I am a huge fan of 4 doors :D

            Agreed on a low DD, I notice from your sig that you are as low as my 4 door and my Brother's Vert. I have racing rates with polly bushings, and I DD the shit out of it. But in the end it is his car and his personal amount of low.
            I think H&R race springs, 15mm top hats and he would be set!

              Antenna is #1

              If it was my daily maybe a light drop. other than that maybe some new headlights and the rest keep it stock they are great cars!

              Suspension you can do some sway bars, strut bar, etc.

              Best of luck! It never ends there is always something.

                  Shadowline, Red Tails, Euro ellipsoids, euro trim,euro grills, is lip, E28 Mtech wing, or E30 Mtech1 wing?. Lower, and remedy that antenna...Sauce!
                  And throw some D'z on that b1tch

                  My car looks alot like yours, so this is just my own plan of attack.

                    I'm currently finding this out :drink:

                    OP, antenna for sure and a slight drop with better wheels. POW!

                      Of course all these fucks are just gonna tell you to moar low, moar smoke lights, moar stickerz, moar spoiler lipz, moar dished rimz
                      No need to od such a clean original e30

                      all you need is
                      -euro trim and grills
                      -smiley ellips
                      -euroweaves (or space the 14" weaves)
                      -chrome muffler tip and antenna
                      headlight wipers would be a nice touch. And I would get a modest professional tint but thats just me

                        I also agree that the antenna should be removed and replaced with an OEM style power unit. See if you can get a black mast.

                        In response to your "objective:sleek" here are a few things to consider:

                        -Smoke film for high beams and fog lamps
                        -Treating the shadowline to make it darker. Powdercoating is more durable than trim paint and does not fade like plasti-dip.
                        -Lower slightly and install 16" wheels to get a nice clean gap...not a 'dropped' look.
                        -Paint kidneys black.


                        -If legal...install mirror deletes on both sides, just be careful on the parking lot maneuvering.

                            Your the one putting down the coin to fuel the car, why the heck do you care about some one other then your own view of how your car should look?

                              If this was my car, filled and drilled 16 inch style 5s would be next and lower it to reduce the rake
                              and of course lose the attena

                                I say get some Ellips, IS lip/skirts and an Mtech I spoiler.
