project #2. bmw e21 build thread

[1badg35]

whoops, forgot all about putting pictures up. for now, since im at the office, here is a shot from last week off my phone




air components should be in by the end of this week. then that project shall begin. oh and dont mind the front bumper. my brother and i didnt like the way it sits, so its off the car completely now, while we either:

-push it back even farther (likely the plan)
-chop it all up and then re mount
-order a used euro bumper- dont want to waste 400$ though

also, my brother knocked out the tail lights. we did them in all red to get rid of the faded amber. came out well.

Are you gonna keep the roof rack? looks odd with such a clean classic car.

[1badg35]

its not my choice on that one, so im not going to comment. It is my younger brothers project, and he does have some plans for what is going to go on that rack. So, its in process, but again not my choice. I do know that i hit my head on the damn cross bars (i am 6'-3") almost every time i get out of the car, which frustrates the hell out of me. haha

air components are all here. thanks to the guys at bagriders for the help piecing this one together. build to start this week, and hopefully will be done in about a weeks time. cant wait to see this thing on the floor

[E21uro]

awesome!!

I have just bagged mine this week-end.

One issue : it's pretty tight in the rear between the air bag and the turret of the car and it's even in contact when inflated. Tell me if you find a better solution with what you have received from BagRiders (For information, I am running AirLift Universal Air Sleeve in the rear)

But finally, the car sits how I wanted it

I am looking forward to seeing some pics of your car laid low, it will be awesome !

[1badg35]

Oh man you beat us to it. Haha
I would love to see the pictures of how yours came out. I too am also worried about the clearances as the components are quite large. When I pulled the struts out of the boxes, I said to myself there was no way I was going to be able to clear the wheel in the front especially. But this weekend we will certainly see.
