That's a lovely car, did you buy it like that or make some changes yourself?

Sorry pictures are all over the place . After the build I had gone through 3 sets of wheels . I have always wanted a set of staggered alpina wheels . As you all know these are now very hard to come by . I managed to find a set and now have them fitted .
Mtec 2 heated leather seats
3.91 LSD
Alpina staggered wheels
Tech 2 body kit .
Home made lower splitter made from e36 evo lip spoiler .
325i engine upgrade from 320i .

That's great - very clean body repair shop.
Must have been a better place to work on your own car.
Especially compared to some of the dark, dusty & dingy bodyshops I have seen.

Where I work it`s nearly as clean and I know the difference it makes to your attitude towards work. :cool: :cool:
Now thats what I call a resto !!!! and a very fine end result, you must feel very proud not just of the car but of what you have done and how :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
