I know what you boys are saying, and it probably would look nice.

I just love the standard look.

Maybe i will put photo up with clear indicators.

Looks like everyone likes the colour of your motor. I prefer what it looked like before you went all Retro. Spoilt a £4k paint job. lol

Car looks much better in Retro look rather than Bling Max power look.
Retro is more in with the age of the car.
Well done

Car looks great now. Maybe the purple could've stayed on, but with the rest it looked like a tupperware E36.
The chrome mirrors look great, I love 'em. But the view from the plastic mirrors is much better. The chromes are way closer to where you sit, and are smaller. I've put some wide angle stick on thingies on mine and it improved the view a lot :driving

They're way better than those little cup mirrors it had before. It's got a bit of style now.

Yer bit of a mixed bag of opinions. Most people on this site prefer the original standard look.

A few people away from the forum liked the colour before, and also liked the "max power" look.

Different strokes for different folks i suppose.

I think the way it was when i bought it has style, just not my kinda style.

Im too scared to send any pictures to the guy i bought if from, i think he would cry!!!

MOT on monday then hopefully back on the road. Was gonna put it away for the winter, but i guess no harm if its dry.

Cheers for comments everyone

i think less is more esp. on these e21's. all you need is some tasty wheels and a good amount of lowering. job done
