    OMFG Fred, your car just gets better and better.

    I can't wait to get another E30, so I can start gracing these pages again with pics of my creation.

      Why do you guys hate hocks? Weight or aesthetics?

      I bombed Korea every night.

          Or the fact that they bend easy and are NLA so......

          As always car is looking good. Hopefully in a week or so I should be caught up with ya.

          Good thing you are doing plastic. Somehow I dont think that color would have meshed with Euros or a bodykit and its too clean to go repainting it.

              That looks great Fred. I LOVE that color too.

              The only thing I'd say is that the clear signals don't flow. You should smoke them.

                Thanks guys! I think the two worst cosmetic features on the pre 88 cars are the diving boards and double chrome window trim (though it does look good on some cars). Seeing a lot of other guys doing the bumper swap (Jordan, Bill, Eric, EtaSport, etc) really pushed me to do mine. I just grew tired on the aluminum stuff.

                The Hocks aren't that bad, LOL. They're gonna go cause I'm doing a 5-lug swap next, and the only thing I'm missing for that project are 2 wheels and 4 tires. Most of you guys already know what brand of rims I'm putting on anyway ;).

                  Well I guess that means I wont be caught up to you. I dont plan on doing a 5-lug for a while (at least until the $ is back up and I can afford another set of Alpinas).

                  Maybe I can get the BBK and rack in before you do that too...

                      Looks great, what side skirts do you have? I like how they aren't too bulky like most.
