      Thats where I got it from saw the post from glen cove late at night around 10pm, wife went into labor 1am son born 4am at Vallejo Kaiser bought the vert at 5pm. It was a very busy day.

      This car is going to see very little driving since I work from home and drive our 08 Odyssey on the weekends to carry the kids.

      So looking to fix it up with the mtech kit some nicer wheels lower it and be done.

        Here's a picture with the mtech 2 spoiler sitting on the trunk. There's mounting bolts along the bottom which is why it's sitting with a gap between the trunk and spoiler.

        I'm still undecided on whether I'm going to use it or not. I think it might look better once the car is lowered. Springs are the next thing on my list of things to get.

        Things I'm going to install which I had sitting in a box are dual fog light switch, euro check panel, analog clock. I have them sitting in my storage from when I used to import parts from Germany so it's a free mod.

        Really wish I didn't sell my mtech 2 steering wheel, map light, euro smileys and I just threw away euro filler plate last month when I cleared out my shed at a rental property. I thought I wasn't going to get another e30. Now I know for next time. :(

              Yes I'm definitely taking that the trunk light off but thinking about maybe just getting a trunk lid from a non vert which would be easier as I won't need to fill all the holes.

              I live near a bmw dismantler so I could probably pick it up pretty cheap.

                Your close to bavarian... I put a coupe lid on my vert, makes it look much cleaner.

                  Yeah thats probably one of the few good benefits of me moving up to Elk Grove from the Bay Area. Once my wife is feeling better I'm going to take a trip to Rancho and bring my brother in law he's "bayareae30".

                  Ryan yours and Bmracer19's verts are my inspiration to get mine finished.

                        Alot of verts are popping up. Its good to see that they going to good hands, but i wouldnt put that Mt2 trunk spoiler. That belongs on a coupe or sedan.

                            I agree on the no go for the mt2. Mt1 is best, Kamei 3 piece if you can find one is nice as well. Im sure it would be easy or to sell mt2 for a mt1. If you want to trade for a Kamei let me know. Nice build either way. Keep the updates coming.
