I know the bodykit will get pissed on by pretty much everyone here but hey its my car

put me on that list.

The kit makes your car look dumpy and lopsided. Your car has potential but...

Ouch! Definitely not a fan of those eBay bumpers at all!

update

Well love it or hate it, here it is as of 3 weeks ago. I know the bodykit will get pissed on by pretty much everyone here but hey its my car, i know its different but it would cost me way too much to mess with it now. I now have total interior including new headunit installed, just waiting on delivery of clips roundels etc to piece my exterior back together.
It still needs to be buffed, just need for the clear to get really hard. There are a few clear coat flaws but i am told not to worry it will shine up just fine. Thanks for all input good and bad, I put the pics up for you guys to enjoy, more on the way. As soon as this is finished i will start my 325i and then i can turbo this 318i.
Cheers!

hey guys

We are trying to come up with a way to not use the bumpers and fab some steel between the bumper shocks so we can mount the bodykit nicely. i am going to leave the drums for now, when i get the second engine rebuilt and set up for turbo i will look at going disk. throw in any comments or suggestions , this is a huge learning curve for me, i appreciate any help
cheers guys

Looks like a great project. What are you doing for bumpers, sticking with the diving boards or going euro?

I bought it for $200 2.5 years ago, as of now it is about 2 weeks away from paint. I will keep posting as things progress. I have installed and have yet to install a ton of aftermarket and oem parts. It is now my bad habit lol.
