    4 doors and metal bumpers never looked so nice (Lots of pics)

    Update on the Old School 3!

    I've been doing a lot of wrenching on the e30 over the summer. Its now got a rebuilt head, new head gasket, metric blues, timing belt, tensioner, water pump, etc, etc. I also added a Mark D chip and 17.5# injectors. A late front valence and a different spacer setup help give it a better look/stance now too. The car is running great so I took it for a spin today out to Boca Grande for some pictures.

    nice car man! How hard is it to get that later valance to fit with the diving boards? Looks nice! I had those same wheels on my Turbo2 FC years ago.

          The newer valence is pretty easy. You just have to cut off the tow hooks and drill some holes for the turn signal wires.

            edit: beat me to it. I didn't have to drill holes for turns though.


            Nice car, I like the stance a lot. I bet the engine is smooth as hell too. Painted bumper surrounds would make a nice subtle upgrade.

                        Looking good man! Going to stay with that look or change / add anything ?

                        P.S. I didn't have to drill anything for the turn signal wires either.
