Looking good fella. You might wanna think about ditching the mudflaps as they will hold dirt and moisture against the arches and rot them from the inside out.

Give that engine bay a cleaning boy!
Everything else looks very nice (red calipers ftw!)

Cheers for the comments people, i am thinking about getting rid of the mudflaps as they look a mess anyway someone has painted them black and its peeling off.
When you say what system am i running i'm not sure if you mean exhaust or ICE so i'll tell you both, the car has a cat back power flow exhaust, as far as ICE goes i've got my Alpine 7876RB headunit with PG front components, still need to get some nice rear speaks and some bass line
Currently working on the engine bay but i'm not gonna give it a proper clean until i have the engine out for the M52 conversion

looking good, get some leather dye on them leathers though
i would keep the mud flaps, all the other e30s ive had have had rusty front jacking points, my IS is like new under there, i put it down to the mud flaps, need to re fit the one i took off

although fit SS bolts

Dont suppose you can suggest a good place to get leather dye from?? and is it a pain in the ass to use?
I'm guessing you have to do the whole seat and not just the bit with wear
