To be fair though, both daz and fuzzy have done really good jobs modding their cars. Elf, your white car is also growing on me now mate, looking forward to seeing it at ace :D

:lol: :lol: fortunatly i got the car modded so it wasnt my money that did the engine

ok i agree you have put a lot of time/effort and money into the car

however its a Bmw not a saxo/nova etc

in my oppinion very unsuitable mods more suited to chavved up pimp my ride mobiles

Dont worry about the slating each to there own, if its what you like, then you keep liking it, we can not all have e30's that look the same or the zone would be boring, every now and then its good to see an E30 with a difference and i know the work you have done must have taken some time, By the way what engine you running any mods there?

I have been to max power loads of times, and your car is not that bad compared to some i have seen at shows and cruises, but i like them even if they are different. I posted pictures of my car about a year ago, and it has nowhere as much work as yours in fact none, how it is, was how it was bought, but my wheels, steering wheel, wooden dash and bits, all got slated, and i was tempted to run out and get some BBS or alpinas, as the zone and slating has this effect on people thinking there is something wrong with there cars because it does not look like all the others, i cant wait to post up some new pictures a year on, when my car returns next week, think i will call the post PIMPED MY RIDE :D

hi and welcome to the zone mate. you mod guys put a lot of work time and money in to your projects and end looking good, but its not the sort of thing i would do, but we all like different things, just as well as it would be a boring old world. good luck with what you do.

if you ask peoples opinions about anything,you have to be prepared to take some flak.not everyone will like what youve done and not everyone will sit on the fence for fear of offending. :wink:

Welcome to the site fella.

I cant say i like the car but the effort and workmanship is very impressive.

Tbh im a fan of the std car so these sort of mods are lost on me, im more of a sleeper man.

Lol,then why post a reply?

You can comment without kicking him in the balls..its just being polite.

Saying it looks terrible and placing being sick Emoticons is out of order.

Read that BS enough times in this forum..if you dont like it,dont post, if you got negatvie views then post em but there is absolutly no need to slate someones pride and joy...how would you feel after all that money and time into something you like? gutted i would of thought

Views your after,not out of order slating.

hmmm dunno what was worse, the mixed reviews i had on mine when i first bought mine and posted pics or this one lol!

Not a huge fan of the work you done, although I have to rate you for the interior as that does look like a helluva job to do that. I think only thing bad exterior wise is the over flared arches, rear boot spoiler and rear clear lights.

Good luck with the mag feature and if your coming to the Ace on the 13th of may, would be good to see the car in the metal!

well guys, thanks for your veiws and points, i do have a standardish 325 sport you might like better (see pic) the mods are abit crazy but thats the sort of shows it was designed for, a few of you was abit harsh i thought but thats your opinion and i respect that, keep on cruizin and remember E30's ARE THE FUTURE
