If you like them then get them done, don't listen to other people and just go with what you want, it's your car... not thiers!

na steve imo matey they look good on lambo's cos they are
a supercar and has extreme body styling.

the boxey shape of the e30 suits 80's styling mate none of this
new bullshit

my honest opinion only :wink:

Dude i though you were joking at 1st :D Even PBMW have started to slate people putting them on thier cars now and that's saying something. If you had a heavily modded car like mine then fair enough (Although i didn't want one even though i could have got one for free), but on your car, you will get laughed at dude :D

Didn't you hear about the E46 cab that pulled up at the Ace the other day, lifeted his doors and left them up and though he was so cool, when infact everyone was laughing at him :mad: winkeye

Drop me a PM if you do and we'll see if we can get a discount for 2 sets :wink: :D

Steve looks like a knob anyway so won't make a difference if he gets it or not! :chuckle:

Only joking mate, your car at the end of the day think its fine if your doing it on a chavved/riced car really as you normally expect it. I wouldnt do one purely cos its a waste of money and you be better off keeping it for something like a leather retrim for example.
