Earl Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Should be neat if he adds back the e30 tails and the plastic panel at the bacl of the quarter glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy3313 Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 super neat! Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I'm all for doing something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsbimmer1 Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I like the s54 swap and I'm interested to see how this turns out visually. To me this is starting to look more like a Rabbit with e30 headlights than an e30 hatch. The lines just keep telling my brain it's a Rabbit when I look at it.

m42b32 Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I really hope he swaps in the e30 tail lights. Looks like he isn't on a small budget so i'm hoping the end result isn't a hack job, it could be really cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 I can't imagine him using Rabbit tails on it still. Adding the e30 tails back in would be childs play for him after getting the C pillar grafted to the shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdesign Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 He is using E30 tails. He has a picture posted of a brand new set of tail lights with the other lights. I sub'd. It looks like its going to be a good one! straight6pwr and Bassboy3313 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straight6pwr Posted May 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 glad he is using the e30 tails. lots of people have talked about this over the years (and photoshopped it) but no one has ever attempted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dammit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
