thirdlobe 318is

[thirdlobe]

picked up some stock tweet covers and a stock steering wheel of some sort so I can send out my m-tech II to get wrapped.





Still trying to figure out if I should go V8 or S52.

In the mean time I am also looking for an old CB650 or an XS650 to start a Cafe project.

Nice car! I always love a clean e30 318is :)

Cant wait to see it with some goodies installed.

So I guess after doing my intro I needed to create a build thread of things I am currently doing or planning in the near future.

I bought my 318is for pretty much top dollar because I felt it was money well spent and things I would have done my self. Here is the previous owners build thread.

Here is a picture of how the car sits today.



Here are some of the things I just bought for it:

A front windshield sunshade - I need to keep this pristine dash from cracking! lol

I also picked up with the help from Blunttech.com a set of euro trim for my bumpers and a IS lip.

my near future plans for the car:
- fix window switch - DONE
- custom set of Fifteen52 Tarmacs 17x9 et10 front and et0 rear
- Falken 912's 205/40/17
- fix blower resistor
- paint and install IS lip
- install euro trim to bumpers
- re-wrap my M-Tech II 370mm steering wheel
- Mobil 1 oil change

What my next goal after I clear some money is:
- S52 SWAP and everything that goes into that - as time goes I will update this.

Thanks for looking guys,
Phil
