Surprisingly very little,cost more in shredded knuckles/backache and oiled clothes than money!

your car is so cool

Thanks for all the cool comments guys!

Well as said earlier the car is no where near finished,its only been on the road around a week so still loads to do to get it to my taste/standard.
Few things i have planned are

Source a new bootlid with no rear spoiler and refit the rear roundel.I too dont like the smoothed look,this was already done when i bought it.
I may repaint the wheels in a darker shade,something like Graphite Grey as i think the look too bright at the moment?
Put Germen flag transfers over the `D` on the number plates.I originally ordered the plates with no euro lettering but they sent them with the `D` on,personally i dont like them so i am going to cover it up.Not seen anyone else put the German flag on so think this would look cool?
Side view mirrors are going to be colour coded too,ill get these done when i have the new bootlid done.
I am going to fit a full set of smoked windows as soon as my friend breaks his 318is with them fitted,should go well with the look im going for.

nice plans for the future...any other performance mods? (I've seen, you seem to have put the 2.8i from the E36 in yours)

**94bmw325i** · 07-18-2007, 02:54 PM

I wish I still lived in England! I heard there is a huge VW show there annually too. Not finished yet either mate? Wow i'm still in amazement.

**EKO** · 07-18-2007, 03:02 PM

Denyo,its only the 2.5 version and non vanos at that

Not too sure on future mods performance wise,maybe a chip in the near future but for now itll stay standard.
Thing is ive been planning to do an M52(2.8) swap for a while now but i recently bought my own house,so with 2 young kids/mortgage and crap paying job i dont know when that will happen.

[QUOTE][94bmw325i yes there is a big VW following in the UK but personally not my cup of tea.Ok they do make some lovely cars but me being an old Ford nut i always looked at the Mk1 Golf as the enemy

Where did you get the German flag in your grill?
