Owned her for a year, before this i owned a E30 320 touring.
Plans so far have been to keep her standard, so off came the after market allows and on went my 15" BBS, off came the council M badges, out came the blue/silver up mp3 player and in went an old sony cd player.. bonus is it light up right colour. I'm luck that shes never had 6x9s so back parcel shelve whole.
Full tool tick sourced and fitted, new front check seat sourced and fitted as original was burst.
There are a few niggles that still need addressing, mainly a steering issue. New rack and UJ will be fitted soon to cure. Cant tell which is at fault so plan on doing both. Front valence needs replacing, little bubbling turned out to be a little bigger than first thought so decided to replace rather than repair.. hopping to find a red one in the short term and the new one will be painted through time with the rest of the car.... and yes, though time the plan is to have her painted. There is a a little paint starting to peel around the rear windows, hardly noticeable unless looking but... still would like to correct over time.
I must say for her age (H) she is in good condition, no rust (apart from that front valance) and she has seen no welding..
as you can see she does polish up well LOL
