    Actually it has style 5s now. I have the gas door it needs a new hinge. And yes I know that the hood and grill don't match I need to replace the hood, grill, both fenders, and the front bumper. The paint on the whole car is crap! But it was a straight trade and I'm getting $1000 for the 525i in the background on Thursday.

      As long as you're happy I guess... I would have just 5 speed swapped the E30.

        I am happy. I enjoyed the e30 but I like that the e34 has a ton of electric features, doesn't handle as sporty, and I have boxes of extra parts from owing the 525i for the past 3 years. So to me its a win win. And driving stick is a blast! I love it.

              I'm wiring in a G.A.S (Luke) box right now! Thankfully the PO had used a adapter for the after market stereo so I didn't have to figure out how to wire anything! My 525i was a nightmare just ask Luke lol. I need new midrange speakers and new rear speakers. Time to go to the junkyard! And Luke's Crossover!

                  It's not that bad this is the 2nd time I'm doing it and the hard part is running the RCA cables. Thankfully they were already ran for me. This install has been so easy!

                              Finished installing the stereo! The sub sounds great but the speakers need that Crossover so bad!

                                We are almost done with the full Luke box install in the 540. It took me a year to nickel and dime my way getting all the parts. Next up is the tuning and then the final step will be installing the amp rack cover with the fancy lights. Can't wait to rock and roll to some of what you guys call the "oldies".

                                BTW Luke, the best bang for your buck is to go with the big block plug and pay swap. If we ever meet up I will take you for a ride in the 540. It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

                                Cheers,

                                Jim
