        Why have American muscle when you can get some German blow?

          ^ added IS front bumper, painted undercarriage coating to match the car.

              Wiperless? Looks great so far. The wheels work for me. 205/60 with ~10mm spacers and a slight drip would be nice.

                Looks great! Clean and simple. A nice little drop would really help too.

                    Why are so many against tint? I never have been a fan of blacked out windows, but a little color is nice to block rays and add character.

                      Got the hood re-aligned, fixed the dings in the pass side fender, painted the black valance red to match, added an is lip and probably got a lot of the front end painted- not to mention the rockers and rear skirt.

                        i understand some people need it, and it protects their interior (depending on where they live) - but it's kinda ugly.

                        no offense intended to tint-lovers.

                            People, myself included, enjoy the fishbowl feeling you get in an e30. Lots of sun and visibility. Plus I think it detracts from character... show that interior off!

                              A ton of body work, full repaint, IS lip, replaced dented hood and busted front bumper cover, new emblems, new shadowline, the list goes on.
