Finally got her all buttoned up and finished! Wanted to share with other E30 guys and gals! Decided during the project to keep the 'big bumpers' aka 'diving boards' for now. Since it is an 88 I can bolt on the plastics... not right now though!

Basic Specs:

1988 325iS
M52B28 OBD1 Converted
ZF320 from 97 M3
3.25S from 88 535iS
Ground Controls - Shortened Housings & Koni Race Shocks/Inserts
UUC Big Brake Kit
Urethane/Poly from AKG, IE, UUC etc in all locations possible
MTech1 Spoiler thanks to e30zone!
Rota Slipstream 16x8 et20 w/ 225.45.16 BFG KDW2

Enjoy!

looks to be an optical illusion in the front on pic, you can just see more right hand "side"

Nice stance and great wheel choice IMHO , I dont hate the federal bumpers either, but euro would be the finishing touches

still fancy the side markers for my next E30 project, just because its oddball over here :lol:

Looks really nice, think the big bumpers actully suit this car quite well :mad:

Where did you get the thin black splitter from that sits at the bottom of the IS lip??

It is the UUC Motorwerks big brake kit. I didn't shoot straight on it turns out. Thus the weird optical illusion. Also I sit in the driver side(LHD) and it sits down and adds just a touch of static camber.
Thanks guys!
