I'm giving off the wrong impression with this car as random people are asking me if I've got any weed. Obvoiusly I look like a drug dealer driving this. :mad:

Just lovely. A realy nice motor to be smoking about in at your age Mo. :P

Keep up the progress... doesn't need anything distracting from the OEM look.

Looks very nice, just needs loosing that Irish number, and a smooth boot lid, and nothing else at all.

Must have been a tech glitch in E30zones central computers in my posting, you need the CLEAN look, not a boot handle, just like my cars getting any day now. Now that Adits boot has been returned from the paint shop, that factory fresh look will return! Lovely match it is too..

Is there any weed for sale then? :mad:

No weed here, much. Spoiler less does look better, but its hard finding one for sale.

1987 vs 2010 325i

So wrong - especially the bruvlines :chuckle:

Looks great as it is.

So do you have any weed ? :rock:

Went to Andyp's to get to lowered (thanks). Handles like its on rails now compared to before.

35mm Eibach springs. Boge turbo gas front, Bilstein B4 rear. But I've got to watch out when I park with a curb in front.

Needs more time to settle I think.

Noice. 2 things you must get - colour-coded 'jimmy hill', leather handbrake gaiter to cover the gap up to your e36 handbrake handle. Then, is finish :D .

Yeah I saw it in person and it does look good. E34 handbrake handle. I might get the leather one from Toby on the zone. Should I get it in black or beige?

Finally fitted the rear box. Got it off Gooner. Proper BMW boysen unit and sounds fantastic. Sounds how a BMW should. I also hear the engine better and its more responsive. Going to put my chrome trims on.

Car looks great. Loads of people have asked about those cool round gear knobs like the one you and I have but they are NLA.

Go for a black gaiter as that beige is too difficult to match.
