I will trade you 2 of my cars for your vert. Thats how much I like it/thats how crappy my cars are

.

Would it be worth putting some 3/8" standoffs behind the plate so it sits proud and casts a slight shadow to define the plate edge? Just a thought

Also, I  noticed that my plate from about 20' looks like I just painted numbers on my car. 

Maybe just a licence plate frame to break it up?  Also, I believe I've asked this.  What sideskirts are you rockn' in that rolling picture?

You're too kind sir. I like that the plate blends in to be honest.

I tried putting a frame on it but everyone looking over my shoulder said it looked dumb so I will leave ti for now. Anything is better than the JohnDeer theme.

I wish license plate tubs on our cars were actually flat because I fear my plate will touch my trunk. #mypaintcostmorethanipaidforthecarsoicareaboutittoomuch

What ever do you mean? Mine is flat, but then has plastic stand offs so the plate doesnt touch. This is the best example I could find:

^ My e36's and e30's have all had those plastic pieces too.  No issue of the plate touching the paint.

[Earl]

Must be a compact thing. It ia slightly curved with the rest of the hatch so the very middle is 1/8" from touching

[Jdesign]

@Earl Are you sure your not missing the plastic? They attach to the factory holes. I think you can run a plate with and without them.

I have no clue as to what you're referring to as none of your photobucket links work for me=/ I have the OEM inserts and brand new OEM hardware

Well just for you I will go back through and change all teh images I ever posted with Photobucket. *PS all of mine work

[Earl]

I mean they all work except for that new one that you posted lol

[P_Roloff]

I believe you have to go and clear your browser cache and refresh the page before it'll work for images that you've already tried to view.

[Earl]

I did that

[Jdesign]

I started making myself "Eclair" decals for my wheels... Besides that nothing has happened besides a car wash.

Some pictures of my car at Eurowerks have been popping up in my inbox. I figured I should share.

Probably the best e30 vert ever , great photos! What is the shiny object next to it? Looks like some sort of beetle kit car

It was a scratch built car that looks mostly like a porsche but it has other influences of the era. It is pretty neat but oddly shaped aswell.
