    My E28

    Hey guys I'm the new kid here lol
    Thought I'd post up my car. Not sure how many people will like it, purists defiantly won't haha.

    Posting up a bunch of progress pics of the car and what it's currently looking like i.e. in progression....most pics are from my build thread over on Stanceworks.



    Here's the car
















    Heading to the junkyard with a buddy of mine, they had 2 E28s laying around



    Found what I was looking for, super clean and the trim looked new! So got to drilling lol



    When we got back to garage my other buddy had a set of 18'' Ford Edge wheels laying around so I said lemme check what 18s are gonna look like


    ^Not bad at all :D...so the wheels I bought will be built to some sexy specs lol


    After installing the pain in the sass bumper and tucking it, I think it came out pretty good




    After a while cut springs start to fucking wear on you :rofl
    Decided on suspension set-ups for about a week or so then I finally decided...:shifty




    Manual valves cause imma broke hoe, plus they're more fitting to an older car and more fun :)



    Hopefully this muthafucka entertains :devillook



    Wheels are hooooome




    Test fit the faces and did some measuring on how wide of lips and barrels I can run. It's pretty much all an estimation for right now. It'll be exact when the air struts are installed lol.

    I don't have any lips or barrels, so for the test fit I used my friends 17'' lips to see how they sit like. Turns out its pretty good. 18s are gonna be perfecto on air.



    The front wasn't compressed to much lol







    Later on in the progress haha

    Getting the tank mounted. Using mdf to lay in the trunk.



    In the trunk. I cut the floor into 2 pieces, the other one isn't in.



    It floats! The compressor is hidden behind the tank.



    Came home today and found these beauties waiting for me :D



    Also Christof sent me this :alright <3. Felt like including it cause its fucking awesome. I've been looking for a while.



    :devillook




    So while the bags were getting welded I went down to the garage and got some little stuff done


    Gaping



    Mounted the gauges



    Routing all the airlines, already ran them all



    Here's the final product with the paddles, pretty proud of it :D



    No dead hookers in the trunk



    Air'd out. Control arms hit the ground.



    Will be picking up temporary wheels in about a week or so, I really wanna see her tucking something bigger than 14s :rofl

    Put the center console back in, just need to install the head unit back in lol




    Stylin' at school, yo.




    Enjoy. Comments and Criticism welcomed!

                      I maybe the first to say this here, but i think there is a point where a car that is slammed, just doesnt look that good....
