Howdy folks

im after an E30, preferred 2 dr 325...

but i dont want a motorsport, i want minimalistic
obviously perfect bodywork/paint
chrome bumpers?
no spoiler
no badges
all black grill
crystal lights

Those rims are BBS Split rims (Either rs or lm - somone will correct me!)

You'd be looking at at least £2500 if you could even manage to find them in 4 stud!

This is Twi66ys Touring - hes got it on Borbet B's which look pretty much as good......... and a lot cheaper

Oh. and none of the first cars have m-tech bumpers. There all standerd facelift cars but with the iS front spoiler. :D

What are the wheels on the black e30?? Correct me if they aren't from E34 M5 / 850CSi but without the throwing star covers!! Must have been converted to 5 stud!!

Didn't want to copy twiggy but i'm quite liking those B's!!!
