Collected the M3 this afternoon.
I had the boot and spoiler resprayed.

The question is should the badge go back or not?.

I honestly carn't decided.

I think it looks smart without the badge tbh. But it would look good with it too. At the end of the day its an m3 with or without a badge. Id have it either way.lol. winkeye

exactly so theres no need to advertise it, I personally think the colour and chrome of the badge wouldn't go with the colour scheme on this particular car.

someone who doesnt know jack think it might be another one of those dodgy bodykits thats avaliable for an e30..

debadge all others but it warrants a badge to say it has nothing to proove

Spray it the same colour as the car, then put it back on.

(Make sure its in the right place though. Too many people put it too high/low too far in etc and it looks cack)

Allright Chris,

No Height adjustment.

The mounting brackets that I got from Recaro Germany fit the E30 sliders.
The down side is you lose the tilt and height adjustment you get from the standard seat base.

Im sure the Sport Evo III SRD frame is the top dog.
With the price to match from the stealers if availaible.

One of you rich folk with a Sport Evo III post up some photo's please.

Playo, I would be interested to see your seat bases?.

Cheers Gareth.

Hope this helps.

Mine only have the sliding function, no tilt/height adjustment.
