Thanks for the 'so far' positive feedback, I'm glad that people don't think I'm ruining a legend. I just think E30's are very much on the border line between retro/funky/have a bit of fun AND serious performance concourse condition, I guess which path you choose depends on what kind of person you are,how much wonga you have to put into the project,and also the type of E30 you have..i.e If I had an M3 or a baur/alpina I'd prob try to make it totally original.

sorry I'm going on a bit. :roll:

Not sure about the stickers, but how cool are those lights!

Looks like a tidy car. What motor's in it?

Very cool. Close up on the rear boot badge, please. It looks strange.
