Newb to this site :)

I'm always about on E38, but I thought I'd register on here too,

I brought a '90 Clipper back in December, came with RS001's, 40mm drop, M3 Rear lights, Crystal front indicators, smoked side repeaters, chrome side trim, mohair hood

looked like this:



Decided it wasn't low enough, and coilies were the way forward,

So it looked like this:



That was last weekend, this weekend I decided to help Mr Meguiars bank balance out a bit with this little lot:



the results being this:



One day when the weather's nicer I'll get round to taking some proper shots…

Anyway, for those of you who haven't seen it, hope you approve!

Cheers,

Cheers all,

So, just a few specs on the car:

1990 Clipper, Straight Black, Elec. Hood

Std. Engine, Weber Carb Conversion, Rebuilt Motor, Gearbox and New Clutch

7x15 ET25 BBS RS001 1" Outer Dish (Front)
8x15 ET20(?) BBS RS001 2" Outer Dish (Rear)

195/45/15 Toyo Proxes T1S all round

Jom Coilovers, Lowered approx 70mm Front, 65mm Rear

Mohair Hood, Chrome Waistline Trim, Chrome Door Handle Inserts

FK M3 Style Rear Clusters, FK Crystal Smoked Indicators

320mm Jamex Steering Wheel, Alloy Door Pins, Blaupunkt CD51 HU

Next on the list is a new debadged grille in the next few days , I've got some chrome inner door handles arriving soon, then onto sorting the sounds out, will be going for some of these  
for the front and probably just some cheap 3" JBL's for a bit of rear fill, then a decent 10" Sub.

Will be buying a few interior dress-up bits soon, then onto the biggy, Full leather re-trim in a very light cream leather, with leccy recaro's up front and either a standard rear or a rado rear bench, this will be done by the same trimmer who did Gary French's 2 tone 5 door Mk1 and Amanda Jone's Polo in last months Golf+.

Thanks mate, we might be going to UD's this year, but if not, definitely at Inters, Players and E38, most likely OE as well if it happens this year…
