  • Another BMW thread that'll piss you off.... My apologies.

    So I've been lurking around the Stance Works realm of incredible builds and I've been feeling kinda left out. Thus I have started to get working on my 318is.

    Before I get to that however, I must start off my saying... I haven't had the best luck with cars. I've only owned BMWs and my first 2 were M3s.


    Which at the tender age of just being a teenager, meant I was being naive and reckless. As a result, I wrecked both of them.

    FML I know... I probably shouldn't ever touch another BMW again. But we learn from our mistakes, and I downgraded to an E30 318is.

    However it didn't end up being much of a downgrade. I can't believe you E30 drivers aren't preaching the amazing handling of your cars to the whole world! Anyway, for a while I've been tinkering with little maintenance stuff on her and haven't really spent more than $200 bucks at a time. I've messed with the headlights by adding eyelids: made em worse. But now I've got better stuff coming. This is just a quick teaser of what's to come.

    Now these wheels are just temporary as I have big wishes for this car. Hopefully when I graduate from college, I'll be rewarding myself with the most amazing overhaul a graduate could possibly ask for. These are my plans:

    Euro projector headlights---------------------------------------CHECK!
    5 lug conversion
    Style 5 or BBS RS or BBS LM wheels
    S50B32 swap
    6 speed M3 transmission
    Mtech bumpers
    New charcoal paint
    Possible E30 M3 flares

    If those plans become reality the car would be real swell.



    In regard to those headlight "lids":

    WHAT THE HELL?

      Eyelids and thread title are disgusting. The rest I'm very ok with.

        The car is just angry it got such an awful title.

        I'm just waiting for CHutch to see the title, I have a feeling it may not be to his liking's

            Yeah I know... It was just something to take up my time until I got projectors. Which I have ordered and will be installed this coming week hopefully! Kinda excited to get rid of these terrible US spec headlights. I can barely see anything when it's raining. Not fun!

              have you considered that the fact that half your headlight is spray painted may have something to do with this?

              no offence here, just sayin. i hope you follow through on all your plans. that would be swell.

                Well it was just as awful before I put the eyelids on. And it's not spray paint, it's just vinyl.

                  I'd just look for an E30 M3 before completing that list.

                        Why does everyone keep posting threads with titles like this? Isn't anyone proud of the shit they do? I dont even want to click on any thread that has a title that's negative. "another" this "another crappy blah blah blah" shut up and be proud of your hard work or just dont post it. Build your car how you want to. it's your fucking car. You dont need us to tell you it's cool as long as you think it is. It's not the BMW that pisses me off, it's the negativity. BUT, I hope the plans you have end up happening.

                            Yeah you guys are right. I should be focusing on the positive rather than on the negatives. I guess the best positive moments I have is when my muddy and I do photo shoots with our cars. These were taken a couple months ago. These are just to keep the thread alive till I get to take pictures of what really happened this week Stay Tuned!








                            And the last photo is my favorite one. Most photographers get frustrated by the purple glare on iPhones but I embrace em.

                              Looks like a spider with mental issues.

                              Hoping you get that fixed real quick
