325es summer project

[Vin-barrett]

Thought I would post this car I did some refreshing over this summer.
The point was something I can commute with and the woman can use for autocross. Kinda plain lookin compared to lots cars I see on this forum but it suits it's purpose.
I never owned one of these cars before and learned quickly how slow E's are. However the 3.25 diff and Ebay chip did help quite a bit. I will give it more ponies next year but for now I'm done and would like to spend my weekends catching the tail end of the local autocross season...

This forum helped lots, thank you all

Looks great!

Wow, it looks amazing!
I love simple, yet great looking E30s.
Just ideally how a proper E30 should look.

Well done.

Nice work, man! Classy as hell. Euro bumpers, suspension refresh, etc, etc. Are those euroweaves or IX weaves?

Thanks for sharing!

nice car man!

[Vin-barrett]

euroweaves or IX weaves?

Chris- theyre IX wheels with 20mm spacers all around which puts the offset at 21. They fill the fenders out nicely without sticking out of the wheel wells..

Thanks guys for the kind words. Couple more pics... inside is just plain stock except for the shiftknob.. the stock one in the car was all torn up.
Also having trouble finding a nice condition vinyl bottom bolster in pearl beige. I had to rebuild the seat frame and had to put the yucky one back on.
