Here is my 320i...

Image

I caught the E30 bug just under a year ago when I bought her... cam belt snapped and had to get 'dirty' but good runner engine put in to get her back on the road...

Looking to do lots....but not sure where to start - and seen some good looking cars - and kinda want a bit from all of them but know I cant and need to do my own thing...still...advice works... and since I am a student (long story) any freebies too - kidding...

...but am open to ideas... am VERY new to all this...

NOTE: The following pics are not of my car...but like the look...

Gordons Kit Site 1

and

Gordonz Kit Site 2

Here is how I want her to look - but in black... wanting a cream interior (these are from the Animal or Gordonz Kit site)

Yes - that is great - but its in Germany, how and where do I go to get that done here?

Those rims are great... - the inner part sprayed black - to colour code...

SRS-TEC - BMW

And the interior - wow...instead of yellow would want cream...but it is just perfect!

BUT

Where do I start to get that type of work done here? Will need to do the engine first and electrics...dont want to do paint job and then doing engine as it could damage the paint work... Also bear in mind I am a student :(

That Silver car with the OVER THE TOP kit was from Grimsby and I used to know the owner... (sorry!)

Up to you if that's what you like... but I'm none to keen on it at all. I prefer the lovely looking standard version you already have!

After the cars I have seen on here - I tend to agree - it is over the top. Still want to do the 3.5i conversion CLICK ME.

This car looks good - am sure you wont deny that...and standard...gosh been standard all my life - want to try something different for once.
