Just another E30 build.... (a.k.a. The Bronzit B*tch)

[Earl]

Just needs a rear valence =)

[dillon7]

Nice work man! You can get the rear wayyyy lower if you want. Mine looked the same as yours when I first did my bags but when I rolled the rear fender it actually pushed the fender out some and I got a lot better fitment. Also, on the front, if you want that to go lower just trim the pinch seem in the fender well.

how did you do the bumper tuck in the front?

Home again! Been working on a lot of little things that needed to be done, also ordered all new brake rotors, shoes, parking brake lines, and parking brake rebuild kits; waiting on those to come into NAPA.

This weekend i did this:

New front wheel bearings
Painted brake dust shields
Tie rod ends
Finished welding the one strut

Also:

Got a replacement for my broken OBC, just a simple digital clock but it looks nice.



Finally installed my IS trunk spoiler





Tried to see how much stock wheel i could tuck



Here some photos for you all to enjoy, for hi-res just click on them.









Also got my rear bumper back on





Another update is possible tomorrow, we'll see....

came across this just now purely by chance. don't know if it would work out cheaper for you http://store.blackforestindustries.com/go16reli.html

Yeah Ive been on their site before, but it says that 16" Gotti lips/barrels are 32 hole not 36 hole. If someone else could confirm this please do!

Can you tell who drives a mk4 VW?

I cant figure it out.......

not sure if they're the same mate but gotti lips are 36 hole and they sell them on http://www.felgenfuchs.de/. Also not sure about importing to america but they'll import over to the UK.

Yeah one of my friends actually showed me the site, very tempting...

Also dropped my brake calipers off to Ian so he could powder coat and rebuild them, going with a nice basic silver to keep it clean. The same as this:



Going home this weekend to do some more work

Looking good killer. Glad to see everything worked 1st try. I never get so lucky

I was kinda surprised but i wasnt, things never go together as they should but i tried really hard to test the whole system a few weeks ago so that it would go smoothly.

Nice!!! Looks great!

Thanks!

once we trade adapters and you pull the tears it will be fucking prime. tuck season will be in full effect

I hope, the rears are super thick and wont be easy to roll but itll get done
