      I like the setup, really clean under the hood. Nice work, Not a fan of the wheels, but definitely like the stance.

        Wow, haven't seen a8 wheels on e30 until now! Not sure how I feel about those, they must be damn heavy lol

        Nice car though, how was it at a strip ?

            this is fuckin great..

            it's so weird how i don't not like this car.

            it goes way against the grain of normality in r3vland

            but I for one can't help but enjoy it.

            one would/should get picked to shreds for some of those parts..

            but honestly - with that engine bay an the 'end result' of the thing..

            fuckin props ! That car looks like high fun-factor !

              I love it, including the wheels. I think they fit the car well. Great work on the body work and fitting the kit to an '87, but I'd loose the chicken wire on the front bumper IMO.

                  Those wheels are very original and different. I like them, a lot. I can't believe that is an 87!!

                    mirrors, mesh, And front lights don't like. there seems to be a massive gap in your the rep. tech 2. The wheels are pretty cool looking. Ignore all the little things... i dig it.

                    I was up above it, Now I'm down in it ~ Entropy - A Build thread.

                            I hardly noticed the mirrors/other stuff past the wheels (and that's a good thing). Congratulations- you managed to do something completely against the standard of modification and still make it look good.

                            my '88 cab has wheel (and some other things) envy now.

                              bleh i don't like it.
                              1. run of the mill audi rims with improper offset
                              2. ugly head lights
                              3. chicken mesh mtech2 spoiler??
                              4. mirrors are rubbish
                              5. red doesn't look factory to me? maybe it is.. but i don't like i, it's too orange.

                              but eh, it's all personal choice. Whatever floats your boat.
