Granted in this pic it doesn't look all that! but in reality it looks alot better! The standard reseeded chin on 323's doesn't make the most of the e30's best feature - the front end...IMO.

it's just my opinion James, don't take it serious

on a rare early 83 car it just seems right to keep it looking like it has done for the last 29 years,

the lovely old turd has made it this far without being altered

I kinda like the old style front

No appreciate the opinion Steve! I liked it standard aswell...just had a jimmy hill (which looks great on the chrome cab) lying around and Pete had a solid valance so thought why not! It's a well looked after 55k henna e30, so yeah it's a rare car...but it's a daily, so i'm not precious over its originality...Just want it to look and go well.

And another visitor...

Got to say that Henna 323i looks better with the later valance and Jimmy Hill
