    Looking for E30 CAD Drawing

    I'm looking for a drawing of an E30 coupe in an .dwg or .dxf format to mock up a LeMons theme on. I figured before starting to draw it myself I would hop on here and see if anyone may have one already. Looking for simple side/top/front/back type drawing.

    You want to make the e30 look like something totally different. They hate e30 unless you put time into your theme. You know you have done a good job when people look at the car close up and can't tell it's a BMW. I bought Skoda badges from AU which fit the BMW spots on the hood/tail/steering wheel perfectly. Spend the same amount of time on your costumes. It also helps keep the eyes off the cheaty parts :)

        I'm sure someone else has something that isn't an M3 and has more angles...

            Thanks for the advice. We have been accepted into 11 LeMons events with our e30's so I'm rather familiar with the bias against them. We have found, amazing enough, that not taking ourselves too seriously, having a legit $500 car and putting good effort into a theme has kept us in good graces with the judges. We also bring a case of homebrew which seems to help :).

              Thanks for sharing. This should get me started but a regular e30 with more angles would be awesome.
