right origionally my plans for my bmw were to drift it but lately i kinda seem to be having a chance of heart lately i kinda want to try build a decent looking show car but still a quick car so ill still go ahead with my engine transplant but i soo want to now go down the show route my intntions were if i was to go the show route was

4 door tech 2 kit
some description of 17 wide wheels
light brows on the front
5050 red clear rear lights
lowered on its hoop literally
respray the car in same colour (lagoon green i think not good with bmw colours lol)

Interior wise

retrim door cars in black leather
some sort of reclining bucket seats
black carpets
re trim the rear seats in black alcantara
subtle ice install
tint the windows

Engine wise

2.5 straight 6
6 cylinder uprated exhaust and manifold

and eventually get round to doing a full underside restoration of it oh why oh why

whats folks veiws ?
