    My 88 325is

    Here's my 1988 325is, took a few pictures of it today. Haven't really personalized anything on it, I'm just going to keep this one stock I think. It's a rescued car, the condition was pretty bad when I bought it.

    Looks good. Kinda reminds me of a brochure, which is a compliment if you are confused.

        Car looks great. What did you have to do to fix her up?

            No bumper swap on that car. :p

            I've got plastics for my super ETA instead.

            Thanks! The car needed a lot of new trim, the old stuff was very pitted and broken. Needed new lights. The power sunroof was broken, as well as the passenger window. The interior needed a lot of cleaning (like they all do) and some parts needed replacing. Mechanically the car was alright, just a few ordinary things here and there, shock mounts were replaced, brakes were redone, shift linkage rebuilt, a lot of little things that made a huge difference.

              like the baskets on one side and the caps on the other. :)

                  Yeah, haha, we swapped the wheels today between shoots. I went out before lunch and took a whole set of pictures with the winter hubcaps on and after lunch we put the summer baskets on. Ran out at the end of the day and retook the pictures again. The best were a mix of the two. :p

                            Honestly I think that car looks sweet with diving boards. It's clean enough to pull off the look.
