MrAdam's E30 project

[MrAdam]

Hello R3v members,
a little history about me.
I'm from Santa Barbara currently staying in West L.A. / Hollywood.
vehicle history...
My first car when I turned 16 I purchased with my money from working at Jiffy Lube lol
1965 Chevrolet Impala <3
(took me about 2 years to make it look like this)

Then I worked at BMW of SB and I got an employee lease on an e90 M3 had that for about a year and sold it.
Then my next project was my custom painted Mineral White E46 M3...
(originally Silver Grey when I purchased it)


Sold the E46 M3 and bought myself a little daily driver for LA that will get me around until my next big project.
Here she is
Original owner purchased the car from the dealer and drove it ever since. I am proud to say I am the second owner of this 147K mile car.
I temporarily cut the springs because the damn thing was too tall. but this is what it looked like when I purchased

16X8.5 +10

probably won't do too much to this car as it is just my DD for my 3 mile drive to work. There she is. I will update this as I know the Mod bug will get me once again...
Thanks for looking!!!:up:

Thank you, yes BC coils and the wheels were on a VW and then his brother had them on a red Hatch Back. But I had them fully repolished inside & out

[MrAdam]

Thanks!

Not sure, whatever the BR type come with. Pretty stiff not so used to it lol. And the tires rub a bit but I hammered in the inside fender bump. And rolled the fenders so it now only rubs sometimes when the wheel tucks enough.

You have a pretty awesome car history.

You NEED "is" side skirts and a painted lip... Like Badly. It would look even more amazing.
