    Let me reintroduce myself (@e30vt) Bagged, M50, BBS, Bottlecaps

    Hey R3V!

    I have been a member on here for a little while but with a very busy schedule I only find myself lurking the "For Sale" section of the forum. However, as some of you may know I am more active on instagram under profile @e30vt.

    I thought I would finally do an official introduction on here and post some photos.

    ***Beware stance photos coming up.***

    1993 E30 Vert
    * Resprayed green.
    * M50 swapped
    * Z3 rack
    * V2 Airlift bag kit w/ shocks
    * Custom built 16" BBS RS's
    * Custom built set of Bottlecaps (please don't ask me where and how much. I got it from a private seller.)

    Im sure I am missing a number of details but let's move onto the pictures.

    Glad to see you posting here too now! I'm jealous of your painted IS lip clips. I always see the little white clips peeking between the bumper in my pics. I didn't know your vert had an M50. Also, that color is just awesome [emoji106]

          I've never been a fan of bagged cars, but I swear clean bagged e30s look gorgeous. Nice car. Any pics of the air setup?

                not my taste, but beautifully executed.

                have you considered smoked or clear signals/sidemarkers?

                  Thank you for the kind words. Yes, I swapped the motor for reliability reasons and a bit more power. Im glad that you noticed as it is a pet peeve of mine. Its the little details that count.

                  I do but the engine bay is not finished so I don't show too many pictures of it. I need to pull the motor and have the bay sprayed on top of deleting the brake booster and rerouting the brake lines using Chase Bay products. The original color was Mauritius blue.

                  This is my winter project. I currently have the trunk taken apart. I am laying down hardwood flooring and adding some accent lighting. Once it stops being below 0 here I will be able to work in it. At that time I will take photos for you.

                  No sir. Using adapters so that I can swap between my BBS's (4x100) and my Bottlecaps (5x120). This is a show car so I am not too worried about losing a wheel.

                  There is a few different names out there but this is a custom one-off build.

                  I can respect that. I have a variety of tastes. I currently am also restoring an Integra Type R. I have thought about clear/smoked markers but kind of like the more OEM look. Maybe I will buy a cheap set and experiment.
