My e30 build/restore

[moe30]

Well didn't get to much done as my spacers and caliper didn't show up so I lost motivation plus it rained some.

So I repainted the rear trim and rear bumper (did the bumper since the chrome looked horrible and there were some scratches in it). Also got my front center console in so my interior looks a little better.

Yeah I got have 5mm spacers right now on them but I'm getting 17mm ones for the rear to give it some stagger

Coming along very nice. I dig those OG sans I wish they had a zero offset though. Great work!

[moe30]

Repainted the trim on the front bumper and also tucked it in

[archie]

Good job,like what I see so far!

Well I got some parts last night



Also going to the yard today so hopefully I'll have more parts after today

[moe30]

Just ordered tail light gaskets, lower control arms, M3 lca bushings, and hub rings.

Well after a long day and a few issues (and a ton of help from a couple buddies) the e30 was finally dropped. Still more suspension work to be done but its nice to finally have it dropped.

The vibration was there even with the stock bottlecaps, changing wheels really didn't make a difference. I'm sure that something needs replaced, lets just say this wasn't the most cared for car lol. I'll have the front end up in a couple days so I'll be able to check it out.. wouldn't be surprised if I'll have to replaced a few things

[White325is]

Front end vibration is from your spacers. They are not letting your wheels to center up on the hub any more.. so you need to order hub centric spacers...

Well went to the yard today, got me some interior stuff, back seat and 325e/i lip. Have more clean up to do on the front this weekend.
