      need a contrast to all the black some where. even if you flat blaced some trim or something. Vents follow no lines in the e30

                    Vents work, and all the trim is black now. Raining here so no pics.

                      hahahaha-- the chrome door trim on your wheelwells looks worse than chicken wire boys grills!! please take that off!!
                      -- other than that I can dig the car.

                        The wheels work for you, actually..

                        Lose the chrome trim on the wheel wells, and if you can't remove the fender vents, atleast match-paint them...

                        What front bumper is that?

                        There are a few things that aren't my favorite, but all in all it's a nice car

                          I kinda dig the vents - gives it some design lineage with the vintage BMWs.

                            Yep :), to mod an E30 you need to do it properly with the right kit and wheels etc.

                              Shut up. Lets see your modded E30... This is r3v, not a classic car show.

                              I think it looks good besides the wheel well chrome shit, and the fender vents (Yeah, I know its easier said than done). I like the chrome trim around the windows, it adds contrast. I dont dig the wheels in particular, but I dont think theyre ugly wheels. Just not what I would have chosen. But if you like them, I think theyre nice enough to keep on. You did a real nice job with everything else on it. It looks tasteful besides those two small faults, IMO.

                              edit: One additional thing, Id paint that grille a flat or satin black. It looks like its gloss black (based on the headlights reflection). If it is, I think the contrast in texture would look much better painting that satin black. But again, just my PREFERENCE, it doesnt look bad how it is, though.
