Picked up my E30 on friday from A-tech :D puts a grin on my face everytime I drive it, 318i converted to 325i (thanks Ant)

I've gone with euro styling with an IS lip 35m drop original 15inch BBS but I'm not sure if I should put on the tech-1 spoiler which Ant gave me?

Any pics would help.

Thanks
Alex

Not the best photo, but a colour coded one looks nice. Never seen a colour coded one on a white E30, I think it would look nice. But either way, the tech1 spoiler looks :cool:

Anyway, get a tech1 spoiler... best spoiler by far, bar the alpina's bigger beefier version!

BTW Alex, loving the concourse looking iS! Sooo clean mate!

Magpie, nice again... but i reckon that spoiler needs a white plastic bit. Oh and if you are intent on keeping those eyebrows, rob a second kidney grill and spray the "squares" white and give that a look. I think it'll look a bit meaner, but white with a black grill is a bit too defining IMO.

Oh, and I love the old E21 alpina wheels! The dish is sublime! Do E21 wheels fit E30's? I remember something about a discussion on it but cant find it... cannot remember the outcome. :o:

How much do tech I spoilers go for in good nick? I have a standard, unpainted lip spoiler, but the finish on it ain't that great and it lets the car down IMO, I think a techI would be a worthwhile 'upgrade'.

Depends. 40 quid for one that would need a spray or touch up. Just try to find one that the back bit is the standard rubbery black. unless you want a colour coded one anyway.

I wouldn't pay more than 50-60 for one that needs the plastic bit respraying. A truly immaculate one that has no marks and original perfect paint, or a newish one, can push to 80-100, if the buyer is wanting it for its colour!

Trouble is the rubber goes naff with age and sunlight, like on my lip spoiler. I'm tempted to ask Cotswold for a price on a new one if they're still available.

It all depends supply and demand, whens the last time you saw one for sale?

They are so rare now.
