        I liked the 3" tips, but 2.5" will look good too. I'll buy a foot of that 3" stainless if you have any left over. Gotta delete the muffler on my car :)

        Gold looks good. Factory tails look good. Your face looks good.

        Are you going to get actual tips or just use some stainless pipe?

          I browsed tips and they all looked silly, almost all e30's just have pipes out the back and that is what looks best in my opinion.

                There will be plenty of messing around when it is done, but for now it doesn't move too fast!

                                  Your rear tires go on the dolly while the fronts roll... unless you don't have a diff in of corse.

                                    I was thinking the same thing.

                                    Did you make an 'oops'?

                                      I have never seen it or heard of it done that way. And a quick Google search shows 98% of cars with the front wheels on the dolly.

                                      Why risk having the front wheels track wrong ?

                                      Edit: U-haul's website and instructions also state that the car MUST have the front wheels on the dolly.

                                        There are mixed feelings about the right way to do it. The front wheels should lock with the steering column, so you shouldn't have to worry there.

                                        U-HAUL is just trying to cover their ass with that statement. Unless you're AWD (which you're not), I think you'll be just fine.
