1986 Cosmosblau 325

[Chaseb124]

Played around with photo shop, got rid of the plate gap, deleted the turn signals and reflectors to get a rough idea of how it would look, I like it!! I wanna get coilovers and go 1/4in lower in the rear and maybe 3/4’ths of an in in the front..

Here’s the result, it was done quickly not the best photoshop work haha

1986 Cosmosblau 325

I got an opportunity to maybe trade my full tan interior for a clean black interior, it is also has comfort seats, never the less does anyone have any thoughts or input? How would black go with the cosmosblau compared to tan? Hmm

Took the opportunity with the cold weather and slow weekend to start pulling apart my interior and cleaning it, first up was the door cards, I pulled them out and brought them to my dorm to get them cleaner than ever, the pictures don’t really do that much justice so what should I do next?

FWIW I really like the way the diving boards look on this car. Not much I would change at all to the exterior. That's just my opinion though.

I like them then I don’t like them then I like them again then I don’t lol

Picture quality kinda went bad after the upload from some reason oh well you get the gist, since I'm sitting here in my room with nothing really to do I guess I'll share things I'd like to do before the start of next year or just in general as well as things I've learned or enjoyed about the car thus far. To start I'll go with what I call by wish list...

Wish List:

1. Bumpers, whether this be going to plastics, doing euros, or even just a late model or es valance for the meantime I wanna do something.
2. Steering wheel, I like the renown millie motorsport along with the MOMO Prototipo that I ran in my Volvo 240.
3. Rear valance if I stick with the diving boards.
4. Is spoiler or Mtech Spoiler.
5. Coilovers.
6. Maybe window tint? I'm not sure I'm torn about this at darkest I'd do 35%.
7. Bolt in cage and seats, this will likely happen next year.
8. 885 head swap.
9. Next year I'll explore the option to maybe do a swap with an m50 or s52 or look into boosting the m20 with the 885 head.
10. Different wheels, maybe Style 5's with adapters or Fifteen52's

Things I enjoy about that the car:

1. Ive fallen in love with the way these cars drive their fun and overall very well balanced cars
2. So far its been great on gas!
3. The LSD is awesome! (its fun to slide in the rain!)
4. Oil changes are pretty easy! Sometimes getting the filter is a little toasty...
5. Another thing I find cool about the cars is the simplicity of them that still gives of a complicated vibe especially with the interior being overall simple yet furthermore simple for passengers since its more driver-oriented
6. I also love the feel of driving it, things like pedal feel and the gearbox its much cleaner cut than my Volvo (I still want a short shifter kit)

Never the less I love the car and I hope to be able to continue to try my best and keep this forum going with better pictures and such!

Well, the borbets are sold and new wheels are on the way! and there 16's with some lip! sorry I have not been keeping this updated but I will try to be more proactive about it, college just keeps me busy! I'll post pics of the wheels when they arrive, I also made a run to adams so more paint correction by hand to come as well!

[Chaseb124]

Well I got some wheels on it, 15x7 borbet Type C's in white, not a bad look but I will get rid of them eventually, debating on what's next hmmmm

[Chaseb124]

E38 Style 5's are phenomenal. If you aren't going 5 lug, I'd recommend a quality fill and drill.

I would agree awesome looking wheel..
