    I'm worried....what about the suspension?

    Beauty. Nice, clean, classy. You should be proud. Any interior and engine bay shots?

        Type-C's look so damn good on E30's, they just compliment the lines of the body so well. Most 6-spoke wheels look really good on E30's (except for ricey ones :D )

        That first shot of your car from behind is my favorite. They are all really good.

          This picture is about a week old, that crap filter is now gone and a K&N is in its place.



          This interior picture is a few months old. The cord you see is now gone because I hard wired my radar detector. The yellow leaf is gone too, I had to have that for a while to get out the smoke smell from the previous owner.

            Nice Jamie. The wheels are nice. But the fender gap is fooking ugly:


            Please don't let me see your car again until it's dropped! :P The wheels are sweet, but OMG! A/S/L YOUR CAR WILL BE SO MUCH BETTER LOWERED! :twisted:

            Nice wheels again, but they will be str8 killer with the suspension! :D

              Get a heatshield on that cone filter, or you're losing more power than you think you're gaining.

              Your intake manifold has the same mark on it in the same place that mine did from that stupid cover inside the hood rubbing on it.

                The fender gap is actually growing on me.

                  I know I need a heat shield, but it doesn't seem like one will fit.

                  Is there anyway to get that off?

                    No, it's not going to come off because it's not just a mark. The cover actually rubbed the existing paint off of the manifold and the "mark" you see is in fact bare metal. Ditch that stupid hood cover, and re-paint your intake manifold. Hell, paint the valve cover while you're at it to make them match.

                    A heatshield will fit, talk to Eric Lukas, he makes and sells them.

                      If you're not kidding :down: .......... :?

                      btw, same mark on my intake manifold.....weird. I might spray it with paint when my car is finally getting repaired.

                      btw#2: Your car is still very clean, that detail job was tight.

                        I'll be posting my engine pics tonight at home with this set up (incl. the Lukas sheild).

                          Gee, the only thing you're missing is a leather ebrake boot. If you only knew someone who sold one..... :roll: ....

                            I need one, but I don't have the extra money to buy one. I still need to buy springs and pay for the install.
