    That car is sitting at my buddy's house, ready to get an s52 in there. It should be done within a month.

      What that has to do with anything, I'm not sure, but I decided to change up because I found a new/better/faster engine for what it was going to cost me to pull my engine and totally reseal/refresh everything. If I was concerned with as much power as possible, I would have waited until I found an S52.

      People can choose to mod their cars however they want. I never said they couldn't. I can also be peeved by things without having to explain why. Modifying every part of a car to the extent that many do, and paying no attention to the engine whatsoever is lame as balls, and that's just how I feel about it. Even if you're not going to modify it for power or performance, at least clean it up nicely, replace proper maintenance parts, fix things like leaks and worn parts, and make it presentable.

      It may sound lame to some, but there's a reason why at some car shows (I've noticed a lot at VW/Audi shows), you often get points for the creativity of your hood prop. This is because what they're really looking at is your engine, the bonus points for having a clever/goofy hood prop is just an added benefit. If you're not going to have your hood up at least enough for the judges/people to see what's underneath, then it's probably a good bet that you didn't spend any time on it, that all you spent time and money on was your wheels and interior/exterior.

                        Wait... so is it right side up or upside down? You just trimmed it up to the groove? Looks good from here. Wish there were more lip options for the e30 that were deep and straight. I'm not stoked on the cut out IS style lips.

                              thats it :)
                              the opposite way to most E30 fitments.

                              its just trimmed on the edges to get a better fit. the gap in the center is still there, which flows with the vents in the E30 valance

                                That's definitely the proper way to rock a rolro lip. I hate when they flare out at the bottom, looks like poopy
