E30 Zone

Got the se skirt, is lip, mims and tinted rear lights on.

Nice looking well, any colour coding going on the se skirts ???

Think ill leave it black for now, only 2 colours on the car, calypso and black. Happy for someone to PhotoShop of it colour coded.

nice touch i think it would look good colour coded, would set it off nicely

schweet

I'd colour code the lip but leave the skirts black

Cheers for comments, I've not had an is lip before and was worried stone chips, speed bumps etc would leave obvious chips and scratches so in my head black was only option, hmmm will have to think about this. Front disk vents are black so I guess is have to colour code them as well?

I'd say leave it as it is, the lip and the skirts line up, so to speak, for a black band only interrupted by the wheels (mm I can smell two stroke exhaust from outside) and it looks ace as it is. Mims work on E30s.

colour code it, black only looks good on black

besides that, very tasty and nice

coded lip and skirts ftw


coded skirts look

MIMS 1900's look amazing on early and late E30's.. need a set for my new car, had them on an old car ... see profile pic!

Colour code the skirts and lip especially since the rear valance is already colour coded
Good to colour code it too and get more of that lovely colour on it!


Mim 1900s are one of my favorite wheels for an E30 too... must find myself a set of them to add to the collection!

What's the drop ? My touring is on stilts on the front end

That is a very sexy colour Ted what`s it named?

The continuous black stripe is what I thought, but if the lip goes colour coded, so do the skirts.

Colour coded skirts look good on that car Mick. Really like the look of that. Will look into that next month.

Drop, not sure, just got the car and suspension is not the best make but I guess its about 40mm cause she'll touch the road when tipping on!

Tyres rubbed the arches when I put the mims on first but rolled the arches a wee bit and the 55 profiles now fit perfectly, imo.

The exhaust mounting rubber are pretty worn so I'll replace those and it'll be up into the correct position.

Cheers for comments.

Calypso Red.

Well, that's me told. Mine has SE skirts and I didn't know

I got two wardrobes from IKEA in this yesterday. One of the staff came out to help me pack the car. Young guy, said as we got everything in, "I'm really impressed with this car". He said someone tried to get a wardrobe in a mini the other day, fail!!

I was cuffed, drove home thinking, coupe was a fantastic car but that would never have been possible. It had a gangster slammed look going on as well.

I LOVE this mate, its looking fully ace. Hope to see it soon seen as you are just across the water! I did an Ikea trip once in my Touring years ago too - such a versatile car

Nice touch

Lovely car, I think the black skirts and lip look well enough as they are...colour coding is so ninties??!

Coming along nicely bud, i prefer them black as they offset the colour but everybodies different. Oh and Mim's rock

The Black and Calypso contrast REALLY suits it

Cheers Mike, love your new Sig. It looks cool as, on the new wheels.

Was up Glen again today and took a few photos! Will have to stop taking photos and do some work on the bloody thing!! Shoudl have the garage roof finished next weekend so after that will start to get serious - well after I've built a proper work bench!!



Just down the hill from inspecting a dam thought - well cotm might like this!!!!

Looking good. I'd leave the skirts black, but it's your car so do what you want and not what others say.

Looking forward to seeing this one soon......

2nd pic ftw

It looks great as it is imo Ronan.
Great choice of wheel im thinking of replacing the rep with mims if i dont go down the 4 pot route.

Looking forward to seeing this at a meet soon.

Tourings rock

Cheers guys, yeah I'm happy how it looks, just need to sort a fw rhings out first. Tank is leaking above half way, abs ain't working, head lining sagging, reverse lights not workin, its missing sump guard and loads of trim. All easy fixes but time is against me. Also need to fit chipped ecu, bbtb and 6 branch. Then ill be happier.

What does ftw mean?
