    Hey guys!

    I just picked up a 1987 325i vert with 113k miles a couple of weeks ago. Just beginning to do work on it. I have a bunch of parts rolling in right now, so I will keep pictures updated whenever I get them thrown in. I'll take before and after photos as well.

    Here are a few to start it off. I just threw the steering wheel in today. Will have more photos by next week! Big plans for this vert!

    October 21: This was the day I picked it up.


    November 6: I bought some BBS Wheels from Fercy. BBS RS 004 & 003 –16X8 ET12 & 16X7 ET25 (4X100)


    November 7: Went to the BMW dealership and picked up new reflectors, a new front grille, and a new rear BMW badge that was dented in by the previous owner.

    November 8: I met up with Fercy again to pick up some Hella French Headlights. I haven't put them in yet, but plan on doing so shortly.




    November 11: I again met up with Fercy! What can I say...he's a good dude. This time I picked up an M Tech 1 Steering Wheel, which is 370mm.
    Here is the old steering wheel.


    Here is the new steering wheel.


    January 27: I got a new center kidney and grilles, and I also added a Sparco strut bar.





    July 18: I got a cardinal red interior. Guy comes to refurbish it tomorrow.





    July 19: He came and restored the interior. It looks flawless, I'm so stoked on it.







    July 25: I just added the spacers on. Here is the difference in looks.









    Keep tuned for more to come!

          This is the only picture I have right now. But, I got the BBS's mounted. Just picked up some Euro Bumpers tonight. Looking for a Euro Valance now.

                  Very nice. If Fercy is your pusherman, then it can only get better.

                      Thanks guys. I'll be working more on it this week. Hopefully will get the headlights and bumpers mounted as soon as I get the valance.

                          They aren't anymore. The previous owner had them painted like that. I swapped them today. I'll put a pic up tomorrow.

                            New Center kidney, and new euro grille's. (The valance was damaged by a local shop the other day. All of those paint chips)



                            Also added the Sparco Strut Bar.
