Ha! I painted my hood support that color because I didn't have enough touch up paint left. It is very hard to see a difference.

Funny that your are seeing a silver car, looks dead on Fjord to me. I think the market has changed on the importance of orignality, buyers seem to want a car that looks cool and vintage, if it has a modern drivetrain with modern conveniences, especially good AC, - all the better. Look at the...

You have a lot to consider but if you want your coupe to look somewhat close to stock, @mkekiddoc's coupe would be a great template if you do go with white leather. In that case, the seats, door panels, armrests, and front kick panels are white - everything else is black. Not sure about his...

You bet! Here you go... https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/new-air-dam-for-the-coupe.7137/

Just sent Scott some info on my front spoiler instal.

Count me in the minority but I love the interior and it looks like it was done to a high standard. The two colors of leather really compliment each other. I wouldn't have picked the wood but I wouldn't change it. Even the floor mats add to the classy vibe. This is a nice coupe, just needs a...

Here's an option for your interior color, it looks great with the Fjord... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1974-bmw-3-0csi-14/

Sent you a PM.

Paul Cain can jump in here but I think his front spoiler is actually from a euro e24. I remember reading about how long it took him to get the fit right. Pretty sure Paul's car, inspired Coupeguy to design the one he sold for years. I've have the Coupeguy's version on my coupe, it too was a...

Hi Scott, I love your 'Mood Board, it's like watching the 'Property Brothers' on HGTV. Looking at the options you presented, I would skip the first one, it looks pretty grey to me - too many new cars have boring grey interiors. If you are going white, go white! I've seen Mike's car in person...

Haven't read the Hoffman article yet but I did read the 930 and 3-series articles. Very interesting about when Bob Lutz took over and got help from his GM buddies to help transform BMWs then archaic design process to clay models (which now seems very archaic). I pretty much recited the whole...

Love the color and the 14 inch Alpinas!

I'm going to answer this without really knowing but I'm 100 percent sure that Bavarias never ever came with with 2 tone door panels. :)

I've sold 4 cars on BaT and agree with every comment you make John, except one. This is just my opinion but paint thickness readings really only matter on a car claiming to have all original paint with no body work. Most e9s now have been repainted, having that as a 'best practice' with...

That's the color I used. I believe I bought it locally at a Automotive/Boat Upholstery Supply store.

I think Barney is making a run for your 'the most driven Coupe' title. :)

I was on CocoMats website looking for some new mats for my e24 that I recently picked up. I was little surprised to see my coupe's interior featured under their Navy Checker Style section. Maybe they can give me some kind of discount on my new ones. :) https://cocomats.com/checker-mats/

My thoughts exactly! He's the reason I've probably only washed my coupe with actual water 3 or 4 times in 22 years.

Something goofy going on with the wheels. They don't look like 16 inch BBS RSs to me, which would be RS006s. If they are real BBSs, they have been stepped up from 15s or maybe even 14s. The waffles look wrong too. I do really like the color of the car.

First couple of pictures don't do it justice. I liked it more as I went through the pictures, usually the other way around.
