    allow myself to introduce...... myself

    some of you know me from e30tech.com, thought i'd jump in here as well.

    my e30:


    1985 325e chassis

    the motor / trans / diff are from an 89 325iS

    i wont bore you with the mods list





    its mostly for canyon carving and 'opposite lock shenanigans', but i'd like to get into autox eventually.

      Welcome.

      Your car looks like a serious brawler...I don't know what I would think if that thing pulled up next to me.

          that flat black doesn't look as bad as most of the other ones i've seen.
          looks like you need a new front.
          welcome to r3v.

          oh and its a crow bar not a baseball bat in his sig.

                I kind of feel sorry for him that his headlights probably cost more than he could sell the whole car for, even if they were Depos.

                  Why do you put shiny wheels on a flat black car?

                  Stick with the bottlecaps, I like the redline. I may have to rip that off for mine.

                      Note to anyone thinking of doing flat black on an e30.

                      Flat black doesn't work unless you have flames. This is a rule.

                            Yeah flat black is starting to be a big favorite, even in the vw scene...

                            My favorite example of a flat black car...

                              I think it looks pretty good for what it is. If the bumper were on straight, it had a good valance and some roundels I think it would look damn good.
