    Few pics.....

    ..of my latest E30.
    Picked it up about 6 months ago and although it was a solid base car it didnt have much going for it.
    Done a fair bit to it since including

    M50 vanos with M20 gearbox and 3.91 diff
    E36 rack with custom solid coupling
    Rear disc conversion
    Full suspension bush renewal
    H&R cupkit 60/40
    16" Alpinas
    M3 houndstooth interior with dyed Black carpets and rooflining
    Volvo lip spoiler
    US spec sidemarkers
    Underbody restoration inc loads of waxoil and 3 coats of Black hammerite
    New cunifer fuel and brake lines
    Braided brakes pipes
    Front and rear strut braces

    Done loads more too just cant think of what

    Not the best pics but you get the idea.
    Opinions welcome :D

          Very clean. I like it.

          RHD looks really weird in an e30.

                      I love your car. Wish I had the Houndstooth M3 seats like yours.

                        Gorgeous car! You've got the first car I've actually liked the Volvo lip on, prolly because it's painted. And your interior is amazing! Grey houndstooth M3 FTW. Like the baby seat, too. :up:

                          Very nice, but I don't like the volvo lip at all...the lines where it bends just don't flow with the car / front end at all imho.

                          Otherwise very nice job!

                            volvo lip is looking good to me these days. Especially when its painted, looks a little off from the side though.

                            Beautiful car. Makes me want to get a smooth deck lid. Bad.

                              Love it well done. Can you see the gauges from that location? You should check out the caps you can place behing them to angle them slightly towards you. Should me a pm if you want to see a pic of what im talking about.
