My car

If you want more comments:

Buy smoked turn signals, and black out your side markers (or get Euro trim)
Lose the ACS badge, there are no ACS parts on your car
Lose the BavAuto window banner
Buy some rims
Buy a new exhaust

That's it really, the rest looks great.

Thanks man, in defense of of my ACS Badge, I DO have ACS pedals but I'd bet money they're not genuine. I just wanted SOMEthing on the front to stand out from the crowd a little, maybe a german flag emblem would be better?

The window banner is because those guys have been REALLY nice to me, but I agree, it's not the best option. I do like the window banner look though...

Rims are coming as soon as I can afford them, trust me, that's the next thing on my list.

and the exhaust: It's a custom job from so guy who used to "race" e30s, it works and sounds awesome but the tips are tiny. I think I'll start with just replacing the tips because I'm a musician and that would be the cheapest option.

The turn signals, like most of my mods, are made by me and will get replaced at some point for sure, although I like the "clear" look.

As for the sidekirts and front lip they are cheap fiberglass from ebay and I'm very surprised I got them to look as good as they do. It's not perfect I know, but I did all of the work myself so I could get the experience and learn a few things. I'm working on getting a raise at work and if I can I will start getting some better fitting parts and putting them on instead.

Thanks for the ideas guys, it's really very helpful!

ACS pedals don't justify a badge. A German flag badge would look great, I haven't seen a car I haven't liked it on yet, and they are only $10. You could probably sell that ACS badge for more than $10.

The skirts and lip look pretty good, just be careful with the front lip, it's low and no matter where it comes from, they can be fragile.

I hate windshield banners in general, and I am not a fan of Bav Auto, nor the look of their logo, so its a triple-wammy for me.

New tips would do the trick, and probably be very cheap. Fatter tips that don't stick out so far would be choice.

The clear turnsignals aren't that bad, in fact white is one of the colors that can pull it off, but its probably just the orange side markers that are bothering me. You could spray paint those black and they would blend in.

A good cut/polish is going to do this car wonders. The skirts and Reiger lip aren't my style...but, it's nice to have some variety around these parts. Get tired of seeing the same old e30.

sideskirts were a mistake, the rest looks pretty good, its got some potential

The car has potential, but the way it stands it's just so "meh"

Its good to finally see it out of its hibernation spot. Looks good but I if you gave it a good polish and wax it would look even better. Bav Auto rocks. Although I never buy performance parts from them I do order enough maintenance stuff. I usually try to throw a Bav Auto sticker on my car before the show & shine in hopes of a little bribery to win.:D But I guess now adays its lambo doors, spinners, ugly paint job, and multiple tv screens that win those awards. Sorry, way OT.
PS: I thought you were selling it?

I was going to sell it, but I decided it need some work first and by the time I was done it was really hard to see myself letting it go. Besides, I couldn't get financed for the Subie I was looking at because I haven't been at my current job long enough.

This car was almost totalled last spring and will never quite be perfect so I decided to go nuts with it. In the condition I originally bought it in I never would have considered sideskirts or a Reiger lip but after the accident I figured what the hell, lets have some fun. So far I'm liking the sides but I need rims and new exhaust tips to fill out the exterior. I also need a few more coats of paint on the lips and skirts and need to touch up a few scratches on the body and then the whole thing is going for a professional polish and waxing. It's a work in progress I suppose but then again, what e30 isn't?

How much ground clearance do you have in the front???
