I had an idea when I first bought the car and after my “///M mirror covers” the excuse to move forward with the plan happened.
Without further adieu, a less-funky looking i3. Dare I say, a more aggressive looking i3? Lol

The hood does look better in body color, but the mirror caps aren't quite right and might look better in black.Comment

I really didn't know what changed on your IG post so had to scroll for a comparison. I like it!

Yea who knew that matching the hood to the rest of the car was a 'mod' haha Once you see it, you will notice how bad every single other i3 out there looks lol
I wonder how much better a white one would look color matched. Which one of you is next to join my "i3's are the new E30s" nonsenseSimon

Not going to lie, I searched up used i3s this past weekend after someone posted theirs in the Anti-BMW BMW Club Facebook group.
Probably going to just limp both of my shitboxes along for at least another year, but who knows.Originally posted by priapismMy girl don't know shit, but she bakes a mean cupcake.Originally posted by shamesonUsually it's best not to know how much money you have into your e30Comment

Leaning more toward a Plugin hybrid as an Outback replacement in a year + from now. Something like a Volvo V60 Recharge?
Rebates here make up for the difference in cost over the gas only equivalent, so the extra ~150ftlb of torque and 60km electric range for the city is basically free.
With the ICE, it can still do the 600Km drive to the wife's parents' place in the boonies in one shot.
I've never had a "New" car payment, always just 10-15k shitboxes, so that's currently a hard stop until everything else is paid for.Originally posted by priapismMy girl don't know shit, but she bakes a mean cupcake.Originally posted by shamesonUsually it's best not to know how much money you have into your e30Comment

I too think I recall the one from that group.
I was curious too, only thing less than 20k I'm seeing has a salvage title. Weren't these i3's all less than 20k like a year ago? Sigh.
I've been thinking I don't REALLY need 3 cars, so while I didn't expect the Si to remain forever, it may leave my hands soon.
E30 goes back to main focus and getting to where I want it, LX remains as the truck, and soonish my wife's 9th gen Civic gets sold for a hybrid crossover or something.Comment
