New to me '85 325e

[Quadrajet]

I recently purchased this ride and am looking forward to driving an e30 that's one color.

[daniel]

i saw an e21 exactly like this today. same looking front valence.

[JasonC]

Is that bahama beige? And i like the BBS valance too.

[Quadrajet]

IIRC it's a Zender valance. That's part of the reason I bought the car. It was the first DB car on CL I saw with one. And the price I paid was pretty nice too.
I'm kinda torn on keeping the little blue foglights on it, kinda "rice" looking to me. Just can't seem to visualise a suitable replacement.

[Quadrajet]

It's Gazzellenbeige, if there's a difference. I'm calling it Tan. Doesn't sound so "fruity".
Hey Jason, just saw your post after I placed the one before this one. Zender or BBS, I thought I had to have the first one on my block.

[JasonC]

The Zender is alittle different and has brake duct holes ;)

[Quadrajet]

Thanks for the info Bro. I'm not too deep in the scene to know all the subleties:)

[Nicademus]

Looks good. Just put some OEM fogs on it. I have a pair that I'll sell you cheap or trade me some bullets or something.

[rodrigo]

cleaned up and in a sharp picture it should look real nice!
;)

[Quadrajet]

Thanks Nic, I just sold my stock squares to a guy who needed them for his old Porshe of all things. They just look big and clunky to me. About bullets-PM me Bro and I can see what I have laying around;)
Upon close examination in the right light it seems to have been repainted doors forward or I just need to rub out the paint. But for $575 I'm not gonna complain a whole bunch.
I got is cheeep 'cause the PO couldn't diagnose a bad clutch slave cylinder. Dug thru my spares box and bled the system, in a little over an hour I was buzzing around the neighborhood.

Another in the PNW. welcome

[Quadrajet]

Thanks. Been a member for a while, but been absent due to other projects and trying to find parts for my '91. If it's one thing it's another.

Wow i love that color, but then again i like bronzit too ><

clean that puppy up and get moddin!

[Quadrajet]

I'm keepin my eyes open for some weaves, but I have to wait till next paycheck. I have some side skirts and a rear apron, just have to do some repair to one of the side skirts before I mount them. I have a Zender wing as well, but I'll have to see if that strikes my fancy. Thanks for the encouragement guys.
