It's all about personal preferences fella. No one can tell you whether to kit your motor up or not as peoples tastes vary.

The best thing I could advise to do is to try and arrange to attend a meet where 2 cabs of the same colour as yours are going to be. One kitted, the other without a kit. That way you can see the pair of them up close and in the flesh and make your decision that way. Much harder to arrange than just looking on the net at pics but you should definately come up with an answer then.

My PERSONAL choice would be an M-Tech kit, subtle yet you know its there, but that is my own opinion and not yours.

:cool:

It all depends on how much money you have to spend really.

An M-Tec kit will be around Ԛ£400 I think, and I don't know how much for fitting/painting.

I think an M Tec kit completes an E30, but that's just my taste obviously.

If you have the money, I'd recommend:
1) 60/40 suspension drop
2) A nice set of 17" wheels (if you're using the car for posing :wink:)
3) M Tec kit

That should have the cab looking pretty sweet IMO :D
