E30 Zone

Is it both shades that can sometimes looks a bit beige in photos ?

I have both a Sterling Silver and a Lachs Silver E30...

It's a tough choice between the two...

Giles.

it's got to be lachhhhhhhis silver for me, i just love the shineyness of it espcialy when the sun blazes down on it

Sterling for me,but of course,i'm bias!

Gotta be sterling for me - lovely bright zing to it

Gotta be Lachs seein as i own one that colour!

Has to Lachs, dunno what sterling looks like, the E30 in the sig pic is mine. Would always have Lachs or Black, maybe the M1 should be black??

Sterling is like the one in my sig pic..

Slightly more Blue??????
I quite like the greyness and metallicness of the Lachs.
Yours does look cool though, do I remember reading the one in the sig pic isn't yours???

Sterling for me!! As can be seen in my sig pic!

Na it aint mine unfortuantely, it belongs to a guy called TJ in the USA.. I just love the car lol

Plus mine will look similar when ive finished!! (not cause im copying!! I had a idea what mine was gonna look like before i saw his!)

Say no more !!!



"LACHS"

Johnno what is the lip spoiler he has on that car, looks great with the blck kidney grille. Mines got the black grille now, looks far more agressive, but I'm not sure about the lip spoiler I think it's a sport one?
Definetly Lachs

On a similar vain I need some Lachs silver paint, where is the best place to get it from? I need to spray a boot cos mine is rusty and I happen to have a spare which is white.

Lachs for me too, looks really sweet in the fading sunlight of a late summer's evening.

And after seeing the M3 I've now got to get me some smoked hellas....

im gonna do myself some DIY smoked i think.. gonna have to pay the scrappy a visit again over easter..

Johnno what is the lip spoiler he has on that car

its a Reiger item iirc

Nice lip!
I'm going to do DIY hellas too, our cars may endup looking very similar
Great minds think alike!!

lol!!

is yours a 2dr also? what wheels you running?

2 door 325i SE. I like the bbs baskets/multispokes which is what I have got, but I'm coming round to the Alpinas and similar. I'm not in the position to shell out on wheels now, just need to change cam belt sort out rust do tappets etc then later in the summer (hols from uni) I'll get modding.

Any ideas guys???

The Dealers for the paint...

My track car sounds very similar to your cars too... see what you think.

i want your iS lip lol

also have you removed the oil cooler grill or fitted the 325i one?

i think yours is low enough to pull off no iS lip on the front!! 1st time i've ever thought that!

Nice track car, looks like its winking How low(ered) are you running it? And have you got stiff roll bars, mine pitches alot under acceleration and braking.
Do the stealers do paint in tins (like 5ltrs) as well as spray cans?

Hey, just noticed, ONE wiper pointing UP what's going on there then????

think he's done a single wiper conversion.. weight savin taken too far i say

Geeman your car looks awesome mate.

Jhonno,yeh that lip on TJ's car is a Reiger Infinity lip, about the same price as a new is lip, 100 odd quid. They look sweet,although they are pretty easily breakable, not as solid as the is lips.

I wanna get one i reckon.. Everyone runs the iS lip!!

Gonna Attach it v v v v firmly tho so it dont get nicked!!

Do you know where to get one?!

Yeh mate, secure it propper.Ive heard of a few people (Over on R3V's) making theres more suitable by doubling up the material and making them stronger, although they should be ok if your not purposefully driving into things lol.

http://www.tuning.co.uk/rieger/ thats the propper place to get them in the uk mate, its the Reiger Inifty lip and you can get the splitter as well

ta fella.. Will buy one when its closer to bodyshop time!!

Its gotta be sterling. More lachs than a bull can s**t downunder

It's a track car, so wait saving is the key! It's all the little bits that you might not think about that, when added together, makes HELL of a lot of difference! Like the sound deadening, roof lining, speakers, wipers, mirrors, etc...

It's currently sat on FK coilovers, though the back wouldn't drop low enough, so swapped the rear adjustables with a pair of fixed Spax 60mm springs. Think it's sat about 70mm at the front, with LOADS to go. Dissapointed that the rears weren't as adjustable as the fronts...

Next jobs are stiffer roll bars (currenlty running Mtech set-up) and LSD, drivers race seat and an engine swap. These 318iS's are FANTASTIC round corners, but just not quick enough on the straights...

The Reiger stuff looks great, though the rear bumper set-up spoils it. The Infinity front lip is VERY nice. Done with the cosmetics on the track car though... unless I fall into a pile of money!

Giles.

this a tough one for me as i have lachs now and had a sterling 318iS, i think sterling would just nip it for me.

Lachs changes colours though i swear in different light!

Hmm, Simon, I'd always thought that your sport was granite silver like mine.......must be the photos making it look darker. There doesn't seem to be many Granite silvers on here.

Between Lachs and Sterling I'd go for Lachs.
