Here is my ride...the pictures are a bit outdated as I've added some things, such as ellipsoids, hids, and my lip isn't sagging anymore. I know it still needs more work...its a work in progress I am sure most of you can relate!!

1987 325is Cardinalrot Interior Delphingrey Metallic Exterior

here are pictures of the interior
**SMALL tear on the end of the thigh support of driver's side and on thigh support on passenger side
*Also I think it's rare due to the car being 20+ years old but, I have a full tool kit with red screwdriver and a full wheel jack setup with two chocks and lug wrench with the clip to hold the wrench to the side. And the threaded knob and rubber cover for the jack lock

btw...project pics (not really just when I decide to post them)

**And that silly xplod sound system is gone and I reverted back to the stock setup***

I'd like to get it repainted, re-do the suspension, new door, and fenders, I really want to get some ideas on what I can do
I'd like to keep the classic/aggressive look and above anything I'd like to keep it kinda classy

currently, its pretty much stock... oem is front spoiler, oem is rear deck lip, oem is side skirts, a turner motorsport performance chip, KN 'Drop-in' Rectangle Filter, lowered with HR Sport Springs an Inch & Half all around, with KYB GAJ (rear) and Billies (front), 4.10 LSD, with 16in replica BBS CO

Great looking car that, i'd lose those horrid rubber bumpers and replace with nice chrome euro ones :D :D

Other than that keep it as it is :D :D

hehe, thanks I am trying to do that as we speak...I was going to put the bumpers from my italian 325i but after the wreck there was no salvaging front or the rears. From the 'stealer' the bumpers are NLA but the trim you can get quanities of!

Thanks man! It definitely was an acquired taste. My last one was the same color exterior but black leather & houndstooth interior which I was quite accustomed to. When I got the new car, my friends kept telling me to keep the red and not change the interior. I am EXTREMELY happy that I listened and kept it!
