Took loads of pic's of my cab over the weekend now its pritty much there, Few more engine bits of :bling: to go on and some more radio work but other than that its there. Later date will include a wheel refurb remap or MS or simlar.

Its weird since the alloy change for the 6th time the motor has totaly changed new rims, new engine, new rear deck and more engine :bling:

Magnificent car and the engine bay is fantastic. Not a big fan of chrome myself, but I reckon you've got it just right and I'd happily drive around all day every day in it. I'm not sure about the wheel arches, but to say I hate them would be hypocrisy on my part because I put them on a polaris metallic 2.8 E28 20 or so years ago and I've hugely fond memories of that car. There's a very high degree of attention to detail and it is obviously a true labour of love. All credit to you.

Like everyone said, Nice but the arches = No!

Then again, how were those arches put on the car? Seeing from the pic's it's work you've had done to it? Gonna cost to remove them, and then there's gonna be the cost of paint?

Is the spot the difference competition answer, the ballast pack for the HID kit behind the drivers side head light?

It's a real credit to you mate. She looks beautiful! The colour coded horse shoe, the engine bay and standard to which you keep the body work is a testament you. With the likes of your good self, E30's will be around a long time so long as they are kept to this standard. Great work.

However, please give me a ring when you get a chance. In one of those snaps of the rear end it looks like the reflection of you , your wearing white 3/4 length trousers???? We seriously need a talk! :D
