    Looks really good. I would do Euro trim, and I would shadowline that car. I dont like shadowline on all cars, but your needs it.

    Also, the e30 m3 master cyl will not bolt on, you will have to change one of the fittings on your steel line. You would be better off going with a 25mm master cyl upgrade.
    Right now I'm going to run the e30 m3 MC because it came with the set-up. Later down the road I'll probably upgrade. Yeah one of the fittings is larger.

    I went on a mountain run yesterday and all I can say is wow! The car handles amazing and the brakes are phenomenal after pumping once (small 325 MC)

                I just put the 16x8 e38 style 5s I did back on. I love these wheels. No spacer, I am running 225/45-16.
