parriehunter 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2007 yea not bad...needs abit of panel work from a few incidents over the years like putting it in a ditch and hitting a hare and f**king up the front bumper. Also the usual parking lot dents. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 Tidy up the rear end by removing the japanese number plate bracket and mounting the plate directly to the factory mounting holes. My first e30 was a jap 320i auto that I manualed. Great wee car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

parriehunter 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 Velcom Def will look better without the jap plate holder- when you say the jap holder do you when just the metal bracket or the plastic setup aswell? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 Just the metal part. Its up to you whether you keep the plastic job or not. I like it without, some like it on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
