Well seems your running rims that fit a Golf 2. I would suggest getting a set with the correct offset. If you like the look of your rims then I'd suggest Alpina's. You can get some 17 inch replica's. They would really make the car look nice. And once the foghlight holes are either occupied by a foghlight or a covering plate well then its going to be a nice e30 that.

resize it in microsoft picture manager if you have it, then upload it to photobucket or imageshack

If you're going for VW styling then get rid of the inside lights and it'll look more like a golf.

On the filler....did you sand it back to metal where you've applied the filler or just slap it on top of the paint? It's not going to stick if you haven't sanded it down!

Oh, and the bootlid has quite a reflection in that shot...you sure you sprayed it matt and not gloss black?

Posted: **Wed Dec 31, 2008 3:20 pm**

the ones from the t piece under the back failed due to corrosion so i replaced them and the brakes did work spot on!! nowt wrong we my workmanship mate.

whats up with the brakes? e30 brakes should be as good as any modern car, if working well.

Hiya, did you sell a silver Mk1 Jetta on coilovers last year? If you did, I was going to come and have a look at it just before I bought my E30 but my wife put me off the idea..DUH! I'm sure that I recognise the house in the pictures from the ones of the Jetta on Pistonheads- it looked the bollocks, as does the red one in the pic above.

Posted: **Sun Jan 11, 2009 9:26 pm**
