My Malachite More Door

Post Thu Jan 19, 2012 6:10 pm

Been on here about 18months thought i"d put some pics up , not that great was getting dark and a crap camera phone.Bought this off of ebay in 2010, fitted 325 front legs ,eccentric front poly bushes ,rear discs from new as fitted with abs , dropped 40mm allround, powerflow stainless back box bargain buy off of here , tech 1 rear spoiler another bargain buy off of here ,looks like it"s been waxoyled at some time in its life, never been welded (yet lol) odd mark here and there but overall all good so far .
This is my fourth e30, had breaks inbetween owning them ,but i just love them.

Is that beige interior? Beige/Malachite is a nice combination IMO

Not sure about the wheels and yellow headlights but I think its ok to be different rather than OEM all day long

Hi pal, think I might have sold you the back box. If it is glad your happy with it.

I like the wheels as well very retro.

Yes Duke biege cloth interior,biege sport 4 door leather is next

i also like the colour combo,
Wheels arn"t to everyones taste but were a german ebay bargain will refurb the wheels not that they badly need it ,with either black or graphite grey inbetween the spokes to break it up a bit ,if i don"t sell them first or when i get the time ,full yellows aren"t the norm

Rtaylor yes was me that had the back box , liking the sound

lol,
Didn"t like the fact that the dickhead courier dropped it on the tailpipes and caused it to get a slight crack where the pipes exit the box ,

but fixed it all ok no blows.
Wheels as said above were a bargain , but i do like the x spokes bbs wheels with a bit of lip , can"t remember the name/model number but were a bmw option, did have a nice set of these sorted out, so i thought but didn"t here another thing from the seller
