    My 88 325is

    I'm new here so I thought I'd post up some pictures of my ride. I've got an S50 and transmission sitting in my garage waiting for the rest of the swap parts. Prior to this I owned an e28 M5 that I made the mistake of selling.

      Welcome! Dont be turned off by the harshness. There is a lot to be learned on this forum.

      Dont they usually take the stickers off your tires when you have them mounted? That'd be hella annoying.

      Like the car, like the wheels, now go platique. There is no reason why you shouldnt owning an 88. The s50 will make it better though.

        I got the wheels and tires from Tire Rack, I just snapped a quick shot or two before I peeled the stickers, I'm lazy. I'm probably headed for plastics eventually but the old school diving boards are growing on me(as embarassing as that is to say). Nothing improves a vehicle like more power, and I'm looking forward to having a lightly modded S50 in this chasis. Can't beat the balance of a BMW.

                              Diving boards can look good...

                              But since he's got an '88 and he can't go get the old iS front bumper its not really worth it.

                              Pictures of your E28 M5?
