My long finished e30 project

[KIRIEIW]

Small update. Cars been treating me great! I got some "BMW Motorsport" door handles from "RobertK". Great seller and high quality product. I still have yet to install the 3.73LSD my parts car came with, I'll get around to it one of these days.

Well I went back to the same spot I took photos of my car almost 2 years ago now, time flys!

edit: OVER 2 years ago!

Thanks guys, figured I'd share a pic with the new stock lip installed.




AND, I got a new family member

Great thread and I'm loving the clean, tastefully modded early model! Well done.

Wow, this is exactly what I could ever want out of an early model! definitely sub'd! Have you looked into putting a late model rear valence on? I think that would be perfect for this car!

You know, that was the plan. I was going to chop it off the parts car and weld it on, but my parts car's was bent and haven't really given any thought of adding one to the car since.

Car looks great!!! Alpine E30's are so sexy to me.

I did the rear valance swap on my early. The hardest part was taking it off the old car. That was a pain in the @$$. But, mounting it on my car was easy.

And a extreme fast forward, the new i motor dropped in. Still have the old e in the backyard to this day

Good Bye.

I wish it was as easy to install the late model rear valance as it is to install the front, the rear end just looks so high off the ground on earlies. But you are really rocking those db's nicely

Hey thanks man, a OEM tuck is all they need. Late model front plastic bumper shocks and convertible rear. Really makes the difference :up:

I need to update this. I removed my Volvo lip and put on a normal OEM i lip.

These came in the mail today! GC Touring camber plates.

Well I waxed my car the whole day today! Pretty boring to be honest but I'm pretty surprised with the outcome.

I started with the fender, here's a after shot compared to the door. I wish the car had better paint, being in a backyard for about 15 years with mold growing on the paint didn't help much preserving it.

The GC's are looking good on there. Any straight on side shots?

It's really nothing to look at, I have it on the highest setting right now! I'm going to get a inch lower all around by next week, I'll take some pics then ;)
