Not only do I lack photoshop skillz, I don't even own a copy of it.. So these are pretty much as they came.

Messing about with the colours..

Awesome pics jhonno

Email me a couple I'd like to play about with them in pshop

Superb mate!!

What setup you using to run the TS's with?

How much is the front lowered by as i'm unsure if -60mm is too low with the M50 lump?

I can't run mine with that front lip, catches om everything

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 12:21 pm**

What is your e-mail Oakey? Any preference as to which pics?

Georob, E30 M3 suspension.. I don't know how much it is lowered by, springs are AC Schnitzer for an M3..

I have to be careful with the lip.. Caught it a few times

Those are nice pics! Not sure being clean suits it though...

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 12:26 pm**

What size tyres you running on them? Are they staggered?

I agree! Sadly I have to wash it to get the salt off..

Have you been injecting your lip with Botox?

Nice pics!

Such a wicked car, S50 with carbon airbox would work well I think...

Where are the wheel covers?

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:16 pm**

Oakey.. E-mail sent..

Theo..

I reckon it would also, bit of a carbon theme going on and all..

Wheel covers are in the garage.. I had the tyres swapped L - R and the plank put the wheels back on the wrong side, so took the covers off to swap, but couple of bolts were knackered so need to order some more to put them back on

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:27 pm**

now i like that a lot

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:29 pm**

I prefer the TS's without the covers, look great with black inners and polished outers.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:50 pm**

Pics look really cool. You must be pretty pleased with them?

Car looks v smart too. A very nice looking E30 IMHO.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 3:00 pm**

They do look cool with and without.. The covers are functional for brake cooling, so will probably put them back on tbh.

Erm.. I think some turned out ok, 1st attempt with a D-SLR, I think there are better shots could have been done with the camera, but have to start somewhere. It was on manual settings though

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 3:12 pm**

There's something about your car, relatively stock looking and not overkilled with bling but it does look quite a horny weapon.

You don't need photoshop, I've never posted a pic that has been touched up (as I don't know how to

)

Prefer the throwing stars you had on at the pod

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 3:41 pm**

i like that bonnet it looks

i would have one but knowing me i would stack my car into a wall or something if i fitted one

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 3:57 pm**

Looks good enough for a trackday now

Just need some cable ties and duct tape. Sort the silly loud exhaust and get spanking it around, that will give you the enthusiasm to get it s50'd quick!

Its a smart car that, the wheels look good with or without the covers.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 5:00 pm**

Looks nice everytime i see it, without the wheels covers makes it that little bit different. I think thats the 1st time ive seen it clean aswell!

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 5:29 pm**

I'm not the slightest bit jealous...

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:41 pm**

Here's a couple I fondled with

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:42 pm**

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:19 pm**

looking good mate, always liked your car, one of my fave's for sure!

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:40 pm**

Cool pictures, are those e34 M5 wheels?

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:40 pm**

So we have the multistory carpark at the bottom of Balkern hill and Colchester business park.

I think anyway

Where were the container shots taken Dan? Car is looking fantastic as ever. I think this is so nicely done, no chavvy wheels or tech2 kits.

you have a really low opinion of your car Dave

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:46 pm**

Why Lee, It's council landfill. If I knew then what I know now, my car would be so different. I think it's old age

I really can't get excited about the od turd these days, Must be time to sell and have a change?

I get this, and I am only 22.

Keep getting thoughts of going back to an Audi. You can get a 2000 audi a6 2.7 bi turbo Avant for not a lot these days.

What a nice chariot that would be, not fast, but not iS boring either. I am torn between this and a 540i touring manual.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 8:24 pm**

Looks awesome chap, very OEM+.

Dechrome?
