    Plus you get a discount with a CCA membership that makes getting one more than worth it

    I have a Broadway mirror in my drift car and it's super nice to drive with
    I have it adjusted so that I never have to turn my head behind me for the passenger side to check the blind spot
     
    That bumper also looks like now it still fits better than 90% of the e30's I've ever witnessed in person lol

    Have you ever read through Matt's thread on here? It goes through what he all did, especially trying to fix the damage to the driver's front corner.

    You could just leave it and run it as is too. Most people in the drifting world don't even run the top half of the transmission bolts on their car in the event that they need to do a trans swap at the track. If you think about the size and quantity of the fasteners, it's overkill for how much clamping force there is holding it to the engine with all of the bolts in place.

    It sounds like the guy has had it for 8 years and the car is actually nicer in person that what it seems in the ad. I know that specific year range had rod bearing issues but if it made it to this mileage, they should be okay lol

    I had Condor RTAB's on my coupe and the passenger side rocker was completely rotted away right next to the pocket. I never had any cracking or other issues. You'll be fine haha. If you're really that worried there are a ton of places that sell weld in reinforcements.

    You won't think this works but take it apart and use oven cleaner and a scotch brite pad. You'll then either polish the part out with PlastX or paint it with some sort of durable interior or trim paint.

    Yep. I had too much fun driving it and couldn't say no. I'll probably post up here with some details in the next few days. Some questionable details (stripe) but very solid mechanically.

    responding violently to the dust messages on your car is likely a justifiable use of force.
