Alright guys ... lets see some SLAMMED e30s

[mikeedler]

i keep going back and forth on whether i like the green or orange better...i'm leaning green right now ha.

I go back and forth alot on the color change too, but that is why I painted my turbo car the same color, and the style 5's are being polished for it.


here' a pic with the original bumper that came with the car- was way to low(they extended the part inbetween the bumper and the foglight all the way around and integated facelight foglight vents into it)

I think that the cars in this thread that are 'flush'(old definition of flush) with larger tires all look far better than the cars that are just 'slammed'. When tires are tucking up to or past the wheel the slammage starts to look worse. Raised up with wider tires that were actually more flush looks better to me.

I enjoyed all your cool stories in this thread as well.

[BimmerTim]

Don't hate.

The thread is clearly label "SLAMMED e30s". If you don't like it, why even enter?

god I wish I had a pic from when I slammed my vert. I couldn't keep it that way because it would scrape on perfectly straight roads (vert rockers FTL)

By no means slammed but I did have to spin it up so the skid plate had more than 1 1/2" of clearance.

Heh, thought about it. It's actually a one off from EJ in Stainless Steel so I'm hesitant to really start "modifying" it in anyway.

That and I don't just drive the car. I'm so hard core that this 2 door, s50, e30 sleeper is our "family" car ;)

[Moto-Mucci]

"Skid plate" and "family car" shouldn't be in the same paragraph. There's problem #1.

[ck_taft325is]

Pfft. You're not creative enough then ;)

You'd think based on the thread title that this thread would't suck.

You'd think wrong.

God invented skid plates for a reason.

In most situations even a skid plate wont save you. You should raise your motor like we do out here on the Best Coast. ;)

It sits a hair higher than the steering rack.

That's why I said reinforce it first. You should see my Raceskidz plate and the 2 oil pans it was protecting...
