He bought it he can do what he likes to it.

At the OP got any better pics of the car now?
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

I can't be arsed to dignify you with a response but calling the guys car a "prolapse" just sums up the standard response/post that you contribute to any discussion.

Did these have a plastic insert in them??
If they are the Old Hella, you'll be pi55ing oncomming drivers off with the spread pattern of the light.

You have some form of issue with me?

the comment was an attempt at humour. perhaps i should add "lol" to my posts to make it easier for you to see.

He put his pics up, people post opinions. My opinion of this is liking to that of the inside of an anus pushed through a brown hoop. Some people may like said "roses" i prefer real flowers.

I dont hate him for it, I'm not even berating him for it, in fact i even wished him luck (and i still do).

want posting to start a war guys... just having a laff with a car I really do love... Like I said there are two kinds of people buy these cars, the enthusiast who keeps it in its original state or near as. Then there are people like me who push the boundries a little or a lot in this case :D .

I own a auto body shop and whe are building a couple of drift cars, not restoring a classic. We are using a classic for a modern day sport... obviously image and style of the vehicle is going to change because of this.... after all drift cars are out there when it come to looks.

No issues with any one like I said opinions are welcome..... just dont take the pi$* too much its not nice :(

What a shame. Looks like a nice car before you started molesting it. :roll:

Nice 2 door 325i are very hard to find, and even harder now.

i think when people comment they are entitled to there opinions (fair enough) . for example looks ok but not my cup of tea :) or not to my taste but if you like it :)

but to say it looks like a inside out asshole but good look with it :( done get that thats like slapping someone in the face then helping them back up can you not see that ?
any how ill not post pics of mine when its done some of you will sob your little hearts out but hey theres not going to be a shortage of e30's yes maybe in another 10 years ..

My point exactly.

It's why people post 6 times and never come back. It is a forum for E30's there should be a multitude of differences on here.

To the OP, stick some more pics up please, I think it looks ok. At the end of the day it is a cheap drifter 8)

Lovely looking car. The wheels look great and I love the bootlid. Did you use stickers or what is it?
I have a not too tidy four door which I'd like to give the same treatment to.

That might be the Nankangs on the back! I had those on my Alpina...for a week. The moment they saw rain they gripped like an oiled eel.


Looks a lovely car though, and i agree, the site would be a boring place if we all drove around in identical looking cars. Look at the Variety in the VW scene for instance. And to be honest, nothing appears to have been done that cant be reversed. Fair play.
