That looks really nice and clean. That lip is painted cf?
Whatd you do for the lower valance/ grille? Did you pretty much change out the entire bumper? It looks really nice.
That lip was poly-urethane actually. The bumper was one of the regular 92-93 bumpers which had the spokes. I blacked out the vertical ones that crossed and it looked a lot nicer.

in all honesty i like the BBS's more, they just look a lot cleaner and correct to the car, the faux HM2's just have too much non needed lip...
IMHO
and why the hell would you want to put a SBC in it? i mean im all for slapping an LS1 in a sleeper E30 or E36...but a flashy E36 with an SBC just sounds goofy....lol
Nice 4x4 and nice wheels
the unpainted CF is a nice touch for weight reduction when the wheels weigh 20lbs more than stock
Damn kid, you're just obsessed w/ weight reduction, huh? I mean talk about beating the dead horse. I don't care if my cars wheels weigh 25 lbs or 32 lbs. As long as the look works for me, Im good.
the only thing i dont care for are the cf eyelids...but usually dont even like eyelids, so whatever. everything else looks good though. and i wouldnt paint the cf, imo.

Mpower and Sal- thanks for the input. Dont plan on painting any of the cf, I understand why people would advocate that, however as I said, I dont think the pics really do it justice, and if you saw it live, you would agree that leaving the cf bare looks good. Ill admit that painting it would look pretty good too.
Def. gonna pull of that corner brow pretty soon. Getting HIDS in the next few weeks, so when those go on, corner trim goes off. As for the tires, eh, will prob. leave for now, Im not racing or anything. Also am going to swap out the slotted valance/ lower bumper, w/ some black M-3 type mesh.
Anyway, thanks to everyone for all the input. Once I get the HIDs on, will try and get some better pics, in better light, that do the CF justice.
