79' Bmw E12 518i in work!

[sumner]

This is my lowered bmw e12 wich i bought some months ago.

Things that are done;

1. - BBS Front bumper
2. - BBS wheels (8,5 front - 9,0 rear)
3. - Chopped lowering springs
4. - Injection

Plans

1. - Remove all rust
2. - New paint (Maybe change the colour? Starting to like red).
3. - Wider rims (?)
4. - More camber in the front (Maybe in the back also)
5. - Bags
6. - Black leather interior (From e28? need opinions.. Current is blue and its in excellent shape with no holes)
7. - Skid plate 0,5mm thick for oil pan
8. - Engine room shine up.

I'm also open for suggestion as long as it doesn't involve changing its originality (Rims, bags and so on is an exception but speakers etc..)

My plan at first was mounting a turbo also but im afraid that the work that has to be put in is too much, i want a clean low look.

Heres some pictures;





I'd appriciate feedback and thoughts!

bags

How difficult do you guys think a bag setup is going to be on this ride? I have never touched air suspension or anything like it before..

Whats the cost of a set? it have to be universal because i dont think its bolt on avaible for E12.

Also how does the camber work with bags? I may also only run air in the front.. whats the cost difference and whats your opinions on air only in the front?
