My 88 started out as a 325e car but now its a 327iS.  Combined parts of a 87 325iS and my 88.  My mods that I have added are lighted rear view mirror, and a clean set of sport seats.  I will not be getting crazy with performance but so far I have added H&R Sport springs with Bilstein Sport shocks plus Tree House Racing Eyeball Arms.  I also added the Z4 3.0 shifter and added all new bushings while that was done.  Replaced the subframe bushings and top hats of the strut assy.

This is how she looked after the first completion.

Second completion, adding in the plastic bumpers.

I like the look of the 87iS cars but a little closer to the body of the car.  So this is what I am going to do in addition to using the plastic bumpers.

The sides are a little longer for the aluminum bumpers so I had to take some material out of each side to fit to the plastic bumpers.

You can start sanding in 15 minutes!
