My 318i - now a 325i sport!

Right below are some pics to show how my car has progressed from a 318i to a 325i sport (see my thread in the chat section - SHAZ325ISPORT pimped my ride).

There are still plenty more things I have planned, the most pressing being getting the body work minty fresh, ITG filter and short shift, H+R 60/40 kit blah blah blah, I could go on but anyways, this is her for the mean time. She's grown up a lot since the old 4 pot days on stilts.

When I got her:

Image

60mm drop all round, clear indicators 16" Racing Dynamics alloys:

Image

Back to 14" BBS, chavtastic exhaust, mtec1 steering wheel, all red rears, still -60mm all round:

Image

Image

15" BBS, full Recaro leather interior, 2.5 engine, sports gearbox, 3.91 LSD, twin tubed aluminium Sparco strut brace, standard mtec suspension, standard angled twin exhaust, OBC, iS front lip:

A few pics after a little raz round with my mate and his S2000 (what can I say, he studied harder at uni than I did :roll: )

Got the leathers a short while ago now from another zoner (shaz e30). Guessing they were out of another e30 that originally took up the option of recaro leathers when new.

Glad you like it. Welcome to the zone by the way. Its well handy here! Not sure I'd have the conversion done by now if it wasn't for this place.

> doughboy, no his and hers goin on there, although I have to say it must look a bit suspect when I'm in his car being a stocky skin head and my mate being the tall pretty boy type :? Not the impression we look to give when trying to show off to the high street totty!

Sorry to be a pain mate, but where were the clear indicators from, and how much were they?
Did you do the red rear lights yourself? They look sweet

Cheers

Thanks for your comments guys. Like I said there's still plenty more to do but I think its come a fair way so far.

> samr - can't quite remember where I got the indicators from, it was either ebay or BM Town. Pretty sure it was BM Town actually. Look them up on the net. I found them when flicking through a Total BMW mag.
Yep, did the lights myself with a can of red tint spray, a heater and some patience. Not a bad job if I do say so myself :mrgreen:

> nwmlarge - nah mate, keeping the chrome. Adds that extra touch of retro cool I reckon. Think it looks better on black cars though.
