Your car looks cool but one thing I totally don't understand is the V6 sign on the C pillar.

Sorry for the V6 Sign it is not true but it was put by the past owner as an accessory, my car's engine is 320i/6 cylinders from e30 model.

Thanks Rasmus
I haven't change the suspension but i did it by an easy way, just heating the rear springs very well till they become flexible. then pressing them for 30 minutes while they are hot, then you will note that they became shorter than before. the last step is to install them again and seeing the car lower.

really it works. But the bad thing is that the comfortibility on the road will not be like the standard height.

sorry to say that my car has many problems these days

and needs a big amount of money to be fixed. especially with a lake of spare parts in my country, here it is hard to find a parts for e21 with a good condition and most of them are used.
1st: i need to change the rear suspensions urgently, they became very bad and not comfortable at all. ANY ADVICES??
2nd: the heater is not working, it works with a very loud noise and no hot air out
3rd: the sunroof drops water into the interior sometimes especially when it rains heavily, i don't know if the rubber is the reason or it's related to a body work.
but the proiority for the suspensions, do any body recommend a specific kind or brand name ??
