That looks the fooking bollox that does!
Proper car this one. Puts most to shame! I love the attention to detail Paul. Even if re doing the loom so all the wires are untangled is gay.

Fantastic work you Paedo !
despite the Haterzz, the Decision to go body coloured underneath was definatly a good one Paul, how freaking cool does that look ?
this must be the "newest E30" out there ? not many have gone to these lengths, this has turned into a very expensive hobby but now you have set the pace and must keep it up till the end,
question is.. will you ever dare drive the extradoor turd ?

Its great to see some progress on this Paul, It looks like it could be a long summer and this car needs to be seen. JBU was the best E30 i have ever driven but i get the feeling this will put it firmly in the shade. Im actually a little jealous.

Matt, without your metalwork and paint this car would probably have been making its way to china to become our very own Tesco's value toaster in the not too distant future, you had a big hand in saving it
