Diamondschwarz with some work, mostly suspension stuff.





I'll updated with more pictures once the weather gets nicer and I throw my summer wheels (those RMs) back on.

ummmmm.... NICE CAR!  

is your driver's door gasket starting to shrink and come loose??? seriously... I think everybody's 318is has this issue...

we're like a pack of walruses... all flopping around, looking for a tight seal! (I'll stop now...)

anyway, welcome and thanks for joining up. I was getting worried i'd have the only diamantschwartz car here... kidding!

thanks for the welcome.

Yep the driver gasket is indeed shrinking. Like you mentioned, I think every 318is (maybe all E30s?) suffer from the problem. :S

One of the best looking 318iS's around. You simply cannot go wrong with BBS's. Are they et33, running any spacers?

No spacers. With the widened lips, I believe that it is et10-13.
