FuryriderX's '88 325iX
Picked up the car ~a month ago now (wow time flies).
Just recently found out how rare these cars were (~27000 ever built) - very close to the m3 (~15000 or so built) compared to the normal 325i (couple hundred thousand, pretty sure)
The '88 4-door is even more rare, in that they were only ever imported to canada (not the US). Pretty sure that there were only about 350 '88 4-doors brought over. Thats pretty freakin uncommon. If anyone knows better figures, please feel free to correct me.
Anyways; current mods:
All-red taillights
Smoked sidemarkers (one didnt turn out so good  )
Eyebrows
Dinger delete
H&R front, e30m3 rear springs on Koni yellow top-adjustable shocks
(i know its a bit of a ricerish list, but i have no $$ to do more intense work, yet)
Planned:
MarkD 91 or 93oct chip, e36m3 injectors, m30 afm + cone filter
Whaddayathink?

Decided to update, with some new pictures.
As you can see, some of the advice was taken (iS lip, mtech2 rear valence). i sold the rims, and im gonna be running on bottlecaps till i find some rims worthy to be on my ride.
What do you all think of the 2-tone color scheme? it was unintentional (that trunk already had the holes for the spoiler, the rear valence was black from fil.)
If i continued it, id put a black hood and perhaps even paint the sunroof black.
Please dont crap on the thread, if you think it sucks, say so, but say why. Thanks everyone!

Can you take a picture of the rear wheel well? I just want to see how the valence fits
Looking good!

how's that?
not fitting to perfection right now cause my bumper is a little bit crooked, and the valence only has one screw in the upper forward part. pretty darn good nonetheless.
