Must have been a lot of work to do a full facelift conversion to an early car.

Not a fan of the wheels but it looks in good nick :)

Whether it started as a chromie or not, I think it looks very good as it is,
I used to have an E28 in a similar colour & that used to look stunning when it was polished,
:D

If you'd said that your car was a Mtech 2 and was bronzitbeige I'd had said it would have to be ugly, I usually don't like bronzitbeige. But you car bares testament to that bronzitbeige and mtech 2 can be a very nice looking e30. But that also has something to do with fact that your car is so well looked after.

It's one of those colours that takes very small imperfections to ruin the hole car.

So to keep it short (Too late I know!) very nice and well looked after e30.
Why is there not enough time to do it right, but allways enough time to fix the errors - I borrowed that, just so reallistic in my line of work.

Looks lovely on the new rims mate!

Bronzitbeige is one of those colours that would have looked nice when new , then looked awfull for a few years... then started to look cool again once it hit retro status. lol

Looks fantastic now! 8)

Once tidied up this car will look awesome in summer. This is a summer colour, you need a blue sky to make this colour pop. What’s up the fibre glass bumper or are the front indicators wrong? Any way the wells really suit the car reminds me of the one we used to have in 96
