E30 M3 - keep it standard or gently modify?

[drakart]

I’ve recently inherited an M3 and it’s currently “stock” and has had a recent back to shell rebuild - engine, shocks, chassis repairs etc and whilst I love it, I can’t help but want to make it look a bit more exciting.
Maybe just some 17” gold group a rally wheels and get a renewed “bmw radio” to replace the god awful Parrot thing that someone fitted.
I’m going to sort out the few dents on the body and get some bad touch ups sorted.
I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep it, but the more I use it, the more I think I’ll keep it.

If you swap the wheels, keep the originals in case you do decide to sell.
Changing the rubbish aftermarket stereo for a BMW branded one is a good call. Especially if it's in period.

Lovely motor.

Pioneer do a nice retro head unit with adjustable colour display to fit in well. Even has the 80s logo.

Personally I’d be keeping it as OEM as possible, it’s a beauty. I’d be looking for an original BMW head unit if someone has changed it.

It's your car so do as you please. I think it would look fantastic on a set of 16" BBS RS split rims with gold centres or any other period tyre wheel.

As for headunits the Blaupunkt Bremen SQR46 is a period looking headunit with all the modern features.

That is a gorgeous car OP - one of my dream cars (I think that and the Sierra Cosworth "whaleTail" were my first fantasies "

Normally I'd vote "standard" but gold wheels would look amazing.

I'd love to see more pics, especially of the interior.
