Looks really good. I never gave 'stock' much of a chance other than a couple of short test drives after the suspension refresh before my 318 went under the knife for a turbo installation, but I can definitely see the appeal if you already have a modded E30

Well..... Another update to mention. I feel like I have accomplished most of the big items on my list.
I repainted all the trim on the 318is, and painted the grills.
One rear bumper bolt wouldn't come out easily enough, and in fear of breaking it I decided to paint the trim on the car itself. I don't recommend it for a number of reasons, but Its the best I had to work with.

- Before the glamor shots.... I decided to repaint my 14" BBS's and since I had my friends 15" RS's around installed them. I was really curious to see what they look like on stock suspension. Its a bit to 'baller' for me... these are words coming from a 27-year-old. Haha I guess I am taking more of my fathers mature tastes to my cars then I would have initially insisted.

- Here are some shots I took today. She's coming along. Next step is fix IS-lip and then go on a deep clean of the interior. The drivers seat should be back from the upholstery shop at that time too.
Once that is completed it will do a complete cut and polish to the paint. As it sits right now the paint is good from 5-feet, but I think it can get it pretty minty. Thanks for looking RV3 Friendo's!
