How about a E36 318i? how dare you suggest I opt for a e36 over a e30 whilst on this forum lol. tbh I really miss my old e30 and although I have loved my last two e36's I still wish I kept my old e30. besides I have a houndstooth baby seat and would like to get a matching interior like I had in my ...

better than I was expecting, not far of the e36 325tds I was looking at, just noticed the car I am watching is also for sale on here.

thanks for that magpie

Before people suggest I try searching for the result I have tried but never got anywhere. Due to the fact I am expecting my first child I am looking at getting rid of my e36 328 sport and downsizing to something smaller (hopefully back in a e30) One option I am looking at is a e30 318 (nice one on e...

Ahh thank you I miss read the post, see you in July

Sorry fella, is that 10 am or pm? camping is a must but don't fancy putting up the tent that late.

One of my friends has decided due to the lack of Meets in his area to arrange his own Meet in southsea portsmouth on sunday the 6th September from 3pm onwards. I am posting it on here as he isn't a member of this forum. It's going to be in the carpark oppersite the hoverport and clarence pier (PO5 3...

You've done a nice job with the V8, could almost pass as a factory fitted engine.

Just a shame I never got to hear her running.

No I didn't no anyone that was going and am a bit anti-social around people I don't know. I wished I hadn't sold my yellow E30 after going yesterday

what was your new toy?

I've just stuck some of my snaps up here

heres some of my snaps from the day, (excuse my shaky hand) :oops: http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj174/oldskool325/CIMG3458.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj174/oldskool325/CIMG3457.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj174/oldskool325/CIMG3456.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/...

No I'm afraid they are just material and no doorcards, I retrimmed the door cards to match the black and yellew leather seats that I left in when I sold her. just cleaned them and the drivers one is worse than I remembered hole in the lumber area (center panel) aswell as badly worn on the base, also...

Alright as I've now left E30's I was thinking iof selling my old seats (houndstooth patten) i think it's from a tech 1 sport, before I sick it up in the for sale section what do you think a good price would be for it? drivers seat creaks a bit and it is worn on the seat base, everything else is fine...

Surprisingly good turn out last night, seeing the clean E30's made me regret selling mine now, I might return one day.

I like that, a lot.

but I think you should spend another 10 hours and bring the bonnet down to a straight edge (where the kidneys were) and fill the recess in the lower panel (where the kidneys were again)

If you want stealth stick to standard lights, smoked lights would look ok as you have the black number plate surround, or if you want to be different try some clear lights but have them and the number plate surround colour coded, (the paint on the lights will have to be mixed with plenty of clear co...

bastard I was hoping they were asking me to do something illegal

just a quick question while your on the subject, I'm in the middle of a row with my local council over parking tickets they have issued me, the problem is the wardens only looked at the bottom corner of my windscreen for my parking permit and not at the top of the screen. I personally chose to put t...

You could always try getting them chomed

Sawyer_E30 wrote:My question is this; are eyebrow spoilers on an e30 'council'?

The PO had fitted eyebrows to mine and I'm about as council as you can get, but I weren't to keen so they have gone.

saying that they can look good if sprayed to match the grills Matt Black or in my case Gloss Black

recieved a spare wheel today, was well paqckaged and delivered quickly even over christmas.

Amp seems a little underpowered to me, sub can be wired to show 1ohm and will handle 1000 wrms, but the amp will only put out 750 wrms.

@ chisel, I'm not 100% sure but most site's claim that E30's have a 15-25 mm offset so if you fit them adapters you will basically be extending the hub out by another 15mm to around a 30-40mm offset. so to fit wheels without upsetting the handeling you will need a set with a 30-40 mm offset, I think...

I know how popular this comment will be, but would you wear red and orange together? No because the colours clash. Would you decorate a room in your house red and orange? No because the colours clash. Personally if I had a chromie I would try smoked ones that would blend into the black bit of the bu...

I like them best, the split's look a little to busy imo

I've tried searching the forum but am getting nowhere, could someone please post up some pictures of prefacelift with either a 60/60 or 60/40 drop. preferably on 17's

if you know what ohm rating your speakers are and at what kind of frequency you want them to cross over at you could always make your own, nothing more than coils and capacitors see the link below http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/crosscalc.asp but to be honest I'd go with the focals you pointed out...

excuse me for being dumb but whats DB's?

I quite like that bumper the little bit on the bottom lines up nicely with the skirts and it's not ott, (wouldn't look right without the skirts).

If you do buy some don't go for lockwood, I've never seen a set that illuminate a night, on previous (non BMW) cars I've had 'Auto Tint Designs' dials, you have to remove the original black dials but at least they are backlit with two different colours like stock lights.

Have you asked some one who can weld plastic? a lot of euro styled cars resort to plastic welding when smoothing bumpers and blending in ABS kits as it won't end up cracking or coming away from the plastic like fibre glass or filler.

ott ??? yellow car ???

as my dad used to preach 'do as I say, not as I do'

I got my wheels refurbed here, stripped powder coated and a diamond cut lip.

I believe they can also offer polishing which should suit most avez wheels

The burgandy ones look a little OTT imo but the grey one's look fantastic. Black centers with a polished lip would tie in with all the chrome and black trim on the car, but the wheels themself won't look as nice.

If you saw it in the metal you'd find a lot more faults than that mate

I love the wheels in the middle, but not sure how they will look on you car?

Mines not dakar yellow, supposedly it's Porche speed Yellow but it might give you an idea of what one might look like
