Alpina-izing my e30?!
Hey guys,
Been looking around as to what direction to take my newely acquired 1986 BMW 325e. Having changed the interior to a tan leather, I think with the Le Mans Blue and all the chrome, I should go for the classic look. I'd like to do many performance upgrades either way but it's more of a visual theme im stuck with.
Here's my friends 1986 BMW 325is M Technic I black on black, euro spec. M-sport suspension, M Technic 1 body kit, M- sport Shifter, Hartge Headers, Hartge strut brace, Hartge spoiler, Hartge exhaust (straight pipes) and shadow line all around. 16" BBS rims.
Or the Alpina look.
Alpina front bumper, Alpina sideskirds, Alpina rear bumper, Alpina Steering wheel, Apina Instrument cluster, Alpina 17" rims, Alpina exhaust, Alpina engine bore and vinyl decals. I would keep all the chrome around the windows and doors. The end result could be something like below!
Either way will take a bit to source the parts, some more $$$ than others but the end result will be beautiful. But i'd like to hear some opinions on the looks of either one. I'm leaning towards that more expensive Alpina-sation
