right as most of you are aware im doing the m30 conversion to my e30! Thing is ive gotta get looking unique in a way rather than the same old tech 2 kit story.. Soooooo. here goes. The car is calypso red, m-tech 2 kit is to be installed but which rear boot spoiler do i use.

1. Stay with the tech 2 one.
2. Keep the lip spoiler on.
3. Fill holes and have none.

Ditch the spoiler and fill the holes mate, it'll give a cleaner look with less ars** if you know what I mean..

Been thinking about doing the same :cool:

i think i will probabyl be the only one, but fit the mtec 1 kit. its got so much more class than the tech2. the tech 2 spoiler goes well with it.

defo leave the spoiler off Twiggy, rear end look really smart with just tech 2 bumper, car needs to be sat quite low for it to pull it off well though, euro stylee 8)

I have voted none, but that would be without any kit

ie stock bodywork, no boot spoiler and perhaps an IS front lip

yep, otherwise it will start to look like a double decker bus, as the e30 isnt really that wide, and the tech 2 is pretty tall.

i know what you mean fuzzy, tech2 would look cool to finish the kit off, although i just wanted it to be a bit different in a few ways, rather than being just another tech2 4 door. I think NO spoiler would deffo give it that euro look once its sitting right with my big PHAT rims on 8)
Im undecided again i think :? :P

I would say none as well but if you really want one would go with the tech 1

I would say none!!!!

Or, i could give away my idea (as i have a touring and not a coupe!) - a was always going to put a schnitzer rear spoiler on my next coupe - the one you often see on the 330Ci's!!!

Can't find a decent pic - looks much better in real life than in these pics - as long as you get a genuine one!! And colour code it!!
ImageImage


Although I just found this little schitzer jobbie - wonder what that would look like on an e30 bootlid!!!!!!!!!!
