After changing the engine from M20 to M30 the front will be a little lower :banana:
Nice job, what front spoiler are you running?
It's a Zender, euro version.

Engine swap from M20B20 L-jet to M30B30 motronic completed.

I have bought a complete car (E32 730i manual) in nice condition, except the rust. (But low mileage)

There was so much rust...

Today I decided to delete the fog lamps, and raised the rear end by 20 mm. Now it looks a bit better to me.

Found a set of alloys today, and gave it a try... :roll:

Not decided so far, but with black centers it can be interesting.
