be very careful when entering driveways, and take the extra block of two detour to avoid speed bumps.

GSR, I don't think so. I'm checking into it, emailed a couple contacts overseas...I think that the only way you'll get a lower profile pan is thru a custom shop, but I'll have to see what they say.

ummm.. wait a minute. E30's don't need x-braces, our car is stiff enough to avoid crinkling like tin foil when you abuse it. \sarcasm
