South African Newbie 325i 4 door

[Shaheenem]

Hey guys

South African Newbie here...

I just wanted to introduce myself and my 1989 325i

Car started out as a 325i auto but did a 5 speed swop about a month ago... She is stock standard for now... Just added a 3.64 LSD.

Here's a few pics...

Heres how i got her...




Then with a little bit of time this...














Then I got rid of those horrid 17" rims and added original 16" alpina's narrow and wides...




The rear 8J




Got a set of Lenso BSX in 16" 7.5j ET25 (dont worry. Im hanging onto the alpina's)




Added a set of sport seats...

What do you guys think so far?

Will be putting on the Lenso's soon... Just need to figure out what size tyre to get...

[AlpineAde]

Well, I think it's fabulous!

Welcome aboard.

PS: Love the Alpinas and I really like the look of those Lensos ~ very traditional with a touch of "today" about them. Good choice.

[Shaheenem]

Thanks AlpineAde

It has taken a while to get to this point... I have a few more things to sort out, like the body work, re-cover the interior... Etc...

Love the glimpses of the winter Highveld in the background

[Shaheenem]

Winter is pretty nice up here... Its just the summer that i dont like... Really, really hot...

[c1alpina]

welcome mate.. im new too.


keep them alpina 16s on man .. they look the part.. very nice

[Shaheenem]

Thanks c1alpina

Im in two minds about it... Dont know whether to keep leave them on or put the lenso's on...

I think the lenso's would give it a nice look...

What you guys think i should do with the interior? Keep them in that "Uberkaro" cloth or redo them in black leather?

[Baz666]

keep the alpinas fella

[Jhonno]

Nice!! Rear tyres are the wrong way round though..

[Alex]

cars looking good

[Shaheenem]

Thanks guys!

@Jhonno... That was when i first tried them on... Was in hurry to get them on...lol

[BigBavarian]

Choices choices, original alpinas or the lenso's...

[GrindCulture]

The black on white looks cool and the wheels look great! Loving the staggered look.

[aceraf]

The pina's look sweet, but those lenso's will look great on a white car. Get some pics up when they're on.

[Shaheenem]

Thanks guys!

Just waiting on some tyres then i can throw the lenso's on...
