i like the stance, but dont like the black valance. paint it white? not a fan of the eyebrows, but i can deal with those.
but it looks great, normally id say the flat caps look best on the type a's but i prefer the caps you have currently!

Damn,
I never knew cypriots from Cyprus were into their E30s aswell, I thought it was just us greeks from the Uk.
Now all you need to do is get a pic of the car next to the mediterranean sea
Im thinking of exporting my e30 down there to have it for a holiday car, do you have any idea how much it would cost me? if I have to pay any aditional tax when it reaches greek soil.
Dreaming of the day I purchase an E30 M3

you would be surprised if u saw the mods out here they have turbos engines from 6 pot m3 out here , i'll take a pic next to the med for u u most probably miss it if you've ever been out here " agia nappa's" the place to be in the summer.
i should think it would cost around 400 to 600 pounds having it shipped out here, i drove my first one a black 325i mtech 1 to cyprus its a long drive but it' good had to part with that on after it stated to rust away.

Stance is good, if you're open to suggestions then i'd do the following...
Spray the eyebrows black (gloss not matt!) and also the grille.
Colour code all parts white (including bump strips and the lower parts of the body/bumpers), you'll be surprised how different it'll look.
You see so many flat centre borbets these days it's actually quite refreshing to see some with the original centre's!

Spraying them black will make them subtle, but still add that bit of 'attitude' that they're supposed to offer.

Not sure if these are the right offset/stud pattern, but look worth that price, you may want to enquire.

If you have a leather interior then just dye yours or get it retrimmed.
You have to be careful buying seats as there are alot of damaged seats out there, and you could end up with seats that have broken springs/runners.
