    Pics of the car.

    I have been on here reading threads and looking at the cars you guys have but i havent actually posted in a long time. Just wanted to show some pics of my car. Its an '87 325 with the S52 OBD I swap.

    When i first got the car...




    How it looks now... for the most part...




    The kidney is now blacked out as well as the bumpers have been powder coated black. I also put a Euro plate of the front to try and hide that gap between the front valence and bumper (still workin on fixing that).

              Thanks. The main reason i like them is because i dont see them very often if at all. But im trying to figure out how to make them look a little better. Im not quite sure yet, but its still a work in progress.

                That looks very nice, quite an improvement. Lose the head and foglights though.

                  I found another pic that you can still basically see the engine. With my roommate in the way too of course.

                    Hey dude.

                    Love this car. Funny how I thought my e30 sounded evil until you passed me that one night maybe a year ago.

                    Your Amsoil banner reminds me that I need to get some from you or your bros.

                      Whats goin on man. I still havent had a chance to check out your other car yet. I did see the camo car at b-fest. It looks and sounds good. Just let us know what you want and we will order it asap.

                        I love the two tone. I think you should have kept the chrome bumpers and kidneys. Maybe some chrome Eurobumpers ;)

                          I actually almost got a hold of some euro bumpers but the person i was going to get them from decided he was going to use them instead. Eventually i might do the euro bumpers cuz the sides and rear were made for the euros. I will try to get some new pics of the painted bumpers. It actually looks pretty good IMO. So many of you guys on here though have such nice cars its hard to decide what to. Too many options. lol

                              I think it's a cool car, something a little different! Only thing I don't like is the rice blue headlights and fogs.
