Arrow E28 Build Thread Zomg

Since I'm starting to get shit together I thought I'd make my first build thread here lol
Progress won't be the quickest cause of school and work...but there will def be many pics and updates haha


Here's the car
















Heading to the junkyard with a buddy of mine, they had 2 E28s laying around



Found what I was looking for, super clean and the trim looked new! So got to drilling lol



When we got back to garage my other buddy had a set of 18'' Ford Edge wheels laying around so I said lemme check what 18s are gonna look like


^Not bad at all ...so the wheels I bought will be built to some sexy specs lol


After installing the pain in the sass bumper and tucking it, I think it came out pretty good




After a while cut springs start to fucking wear on you
Decided on suspension set-ups for about a week or so then I finally decided...




Manual valves cause imma broke hoe, plus they're more fitting to an older car and more fun



Hopefully this muthafucka entertains

Where did you get the kit from? (Bag riders?)

How much is it costing you in total?

Aight so I finally got paid today, or should I say underpaid :\....fucking oh well gotta deal with it, fam business ftl lol.

So gonna pick up the wheels this week and over the next month or so build them to the sweet specs I want lol.
Getting dicked over means the struts are gonna be pushed back about another week or so now fml


Here's some random pics for right now





Never realized how small this thing is compared to other cars on the road


And here's a photoshop done by my good friend of how I want it to sit
*Fronts will probably not tuck like that cause it will need extensive work, thats for later...Mike already teased me on it
