E30 M3 touring with S62 power

[Hansel]

I have the cabrio plates welded in on my m3. Really stiffened up the front end.

DaveG will probably get some better pics of the installation, this give an idea where they go:



Excellent work. Great build! :)

Few new bits arrived today
Anyone want to hazard a guess
They are genuine bmw
Half of them are nla so I had to get some of them from the US

Interesting... have heard of convertible plates and been curious about seeing where they go.

Colour will be changing. Lamborghini Grigio estoque is current favourite

Great choice, I have always wanted to see an e30 in Suzuka grey

[Pipes]

Are you keeping it red or is it getting a color change?

[stanhayward]

That looks awesome! You have some serious fab skills to make this look so OEM

[DaveG]

These little beauties arrived fro the USA along with a nice bill from customs. Greedy b**tards



Very tidy compared to standard lollipop bushes. Will leave a lot more room for routing manifolds



Last piece in the bottom of the door



Welded up



Ground down



Primered





Last bit of the door to be tackled. Not an easy one this with so many angles and pieces



Put in a piece to create door edge



Plenty of banging and cutting to get this fairly right and welded up



Ground down and primered



Looking fairly factory now

[DaveG]

Nice project. But it can looks better.... with an early model rear lights. :D

Prefacelift rear light would never look right beside the boodlid I think where the square edge wouldn't line up with the angle of the boodlid,

This is making me very happy and it's not even my car.

SO MUCH WIN. Learning a great deal. Keep going!!! more more more
