Starting off I must mention how much I love this forum. I find myself doing a lot of reading and searching without any posting, let's change that. I am a long time E30 enthusiast (over 9 years) and some of you may know me as MR 325 from R3VLimited.

I would like to introduce my 1991 325i. This car just came out of the body shop less than 2 weeks ago from a full repaint and install of the M-Tech 2 OEM kit. This car isn't quite "done" but it's now getting close. I have a couple pictures from a recent show here in Southern California and plan to do a complete and proper photo shoot soon!
