scott_e30 8 Report post Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Hi all, After hunting round for the last year or so for an e30, I saw that this one was up for sale and looked to be in good shape (a real credit to the previous owners). Looked at it and purchased it a week later off Will (ThreeOneEight) - Cheers!! Its a NZ 1990 318i Manual M40 engine 226000 KM Electric windows/sunroof Rear spoiler 14" BBS Basket Weave alloys Spent most of today running over the car including giving it a Mother three stage polish I am very happy with the car, and loving every minute of owning her. A few plans i have for her: Giving the alloys a really good clean (possibly a re-spray) Clear indicator lenses (front and side) - anyone that can help with these parts? Original exhaust tip IS Front lip (tossing up between painting it black or colour coding it to Alpine White) Might look at some mtech or after market springs (but not a priority currently) New roundels Original rear floor matts Original gear knob Cheers - Scott Edited September 24, 2012 by scott_e30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charles28 136 Report post Posted September 23, 2012 Nice tidy original looking car there. I think the IS lip colour coded would look good if you did the bumpers too (but leave the trim on bumper black). Well at least that's what I plan on doing with mine .

Sometimes i think it looks like there is too much white on the front end when the bumpers are also colour coded. Just my opinion haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
