-what coils are you on?
-what volvo is that front lip off (volvo)?
- details on the exhaust?
the car is full of awesome. view from the front is so mean with those wheels. I like where its going, loved the roadstars but selling for a swap is definitely worth it.

I only have coilovers in the back, and they're really not coilovers. Just spring perches and new springs thrown over the stock strut. It actually works good. I'm planning on getting shorter struts from a mk2 or mr2(I forget what one fits) for the front and shortening the body.
Similar to this: http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=22708 But instead of a bag, it will be a coil.
There's a picture of my cheapass ghetto coilover in my build thread.
I've always liked duckbill front spoilers so I went to the junkyard and found a car with a lip with the right amount of height, then took it home and cut the ends off with a grinder/saw whatever you have, curved them like a duckbill lip curves and then attached it. My e28 naturally had a little flange/lip on the bottom of the "bumper" so it was pretty easy. Not sure if they all do. Harper Harbor freight was out of black zipties. Coulda used screws, but I did that on my twoforty and they ripped out, zipties are replaceable and fast. It did happen to be a volvo 900 or something, I forget. 240 turbo?
The exhaust is just 2 resonators and 2 1/2 pipe that my friend welded up for me. It actually sounds reaaaaally good and is quite quiet.
This looks amazing as is.
The rear fitment work you will be doing in the near future will pay off.
Fav wheels on your car so far.
This shot gives the car a very eastern european look to it for some reason lol

thanks for the details. Thats almost exactly how I was thinking of doing my exhaust for my E28, I saw it on your car and was like no way. I was going to buy an IS front valence but this might be the better option short term because of cheap cost and i'm not totally sold on the IS front but having nothing looks pretty shitty.
I suffer from the reverse rake... but I'll probably just wait and make some front coils. I have been looking at using the g60 konis and gc sleeves, we'll see.
Keep up the good work, love what you are doing with your E28
