It's a 85 930 (turbo) highly modified putting out about 450 bhp and scares the life out of me!

lol with the original 300 horses it was already a handfull, with 50% bonus horses that will be, eh, challenging

but it can always get worse, last weekend I spoke to a guy from Belgium driving a Cobra replica with over 600 horses at the wheels, guess that's over 750 BHP at the crank?

have been busy with work and then away so today was the first time i got to start making the few changes to the e21 .
Got front bumper sorted just need a slight alignment and also kidney grill back on and pleased with the car now looking as it should chrome not black kidney and colour coded bumpers,have also taken the 6.5" strip of dark tint film of the top of window screen as it just didn't cut it for me .Next to come out will be the roll cage so the sunroof ,window winders ,glove box and sun visors all become useable then it will be rear bumper change and remove sun roof visor as again don't like the look of it. Anything that is removed will be up for sale in due course so get in touch if your interested .

had a spare hour this afternoon so got chance to swap rear bumper really pleased with the original look once again ,as it should be in my eyes hopefully get chance to remove roll cage in the week.
also made new spare wheel cover in the week and pleased with the result ,made from 6mm exterior ply and the painted in a tanking solution that i use to form wet room so should last give a nice original slightly stippled look but much stronger . I do have enough solution to make about 20 more if anyone is interested? they would come out at £35 each plus p&p

Nice work! Typically, the paint is literally drying on the spare wheel cover I made, otherwise I'd take one of these!

was going through some old photos of the car when silver surfer had it and came to the conclusion i like the beige interior with the green of the car so i will be on the look out for all interior items (must be recaro fronts) to have re-trimed in beige leather then i will sell the interior in the car complete as it is mint. A question i need to know the answer to is what colour headlining comes with a beige interior ,is this also beige? i would also like a bit of feed back as to if people think I'm mad ? i know its personal taste but a second opinion is always welcome as sometimes we all can get caught up in changing things and never stop to relies what we had is pretty nice already
