Nice ! Which pnp did go to ? Notice any e30s out there with a plastic front bumper or bumper carrier still on ?

pnp in fairfield, there WERE 2 e30s with uncrashed plastic bumpers,but i didnt get 'em (no room in the car:D ). i went back the next day and one was robbed of the bumpers and the other was sent out to get crushed.
they also had 2 diving board e30 that had already been raped of any decent parts. i'm gonna head back out on sunday to see if they got anything else in decent shape.

Man with that skidplate and race suspension your going to have next to no ground clearance.

maybe but i wont know till i try.:D
I already scraped it leaving a driveway that was HELLA steep, but it was just a litle scratch:) .

was your car repainted or is it just the way the light reflects off the front fender?

Nice car though and shadowline looks good.

yes while detailing and working on the car i found overspray, and some dust in the paint. the front fenders and hood were re-painted.
BUT for $250 I'm not complaining.:D

Damn, I'll probably end up paying for a new plastic bumper cover but I don't want to buy a new bumper carrier itself so hopefully i'll find one locally for cheap...

once you crack 1 oil pan you are scarred for the rest of your life when ever you see potholes or debris in the road!!!


I cringe to a point where i almost cant move....it sucks!
LOL!

[jajou318]

although the skidplate seems to be off to one side more than the other maybe jon needs to check his jig or maybe it's just my car!

Are you sure that's the m42 skidplate? Maybe that's why?

yeah dude the m42 oilpan hangs lower than the m20. hence the lower clearance of the new skidplate.:D

*bump*
smoked euro smiley's and euro grills FTMFW!!!!:D
the mail dropped of a notice saying i have a package waiting for me, from Ryang G.......hmm what could it be?
now all i have to do is go to sonnen BMW and buy an IS lip.
help fund the lowering of my car, buy my PS3!!!!!!:)

Nice! Once you get a lip on there it will look even better. Are you going to run euro trim also ?

thanks!
should be getting my IS lip from Sonnen BMW this friday!:)
I was thinking about running Euro trim, but i like my sidemarkers. Since they are smoked, it looks like Euro trim when they are off..... from far away then when i turn 'em on they light up!

True, you almost don't notice the ones on the side of the trim. How much is the lip from Sonnen ?

[turbo_negro69]

I don't remember exactly, I think list price is like $175-$189. But since i get wholesale it's 20% off list.

Are the depo turn signal lenses in your car the clear ones or smoked?
