    The intake manifold, valve cover and wheels were all powder coated and the bumpers and trim were painted with factory BMW paint. As for the two velocity stacks they were hand made out of carbon fiber.

    Looks good, I despise red cars but I ended up with a red e30 lol! It needs a paint job though but it's too much of a hassle and too much money to properly strip down 100% and change colors so I'll live with it and just respray the exterior.

    I've been converting that tan interior to black one piece at a time then shadow lining the trim and hoping it looks half as good as this one! If anything is needed I have tons of e30 parts, from an uncracked dash to LSD's to an m50 and m50 obd1 conversion parts.

    car looks GREAT man, makes me want one, and my favorite part about this thread is watching people read over your instructions about clicking for large pics, then complaining about it, and watching you get mad about it and have to resort to big letters lol
