  • BMW E39 528ia 1996 Black Edition [BDĘ]

    18.12.2012

    Got myself a christmas present
    This is the new project after i sold my e36 328i.
    ill update the thread when im working on it.

    This car came originally as a 523ia but later on there was a problem with the motor so, the owner before me swapped a M52B28 from another e39 into it.

    Cosmoss black on the outside, with a light interior.

    Pictures from when i picked the car up:
















    22.12.2012

    Today i did some things:

    Serviced the car, new oil and such.
    Changed the left front strut and spring (the strut had been replaced right side before)
    Changed the brake discs and pads at the front.
    Took all brakes apart too make them work proberly.


    Broken spring

    Fixxed


    Bent a little bit:




    Bumper pushed put after running hot water on it for 15min, and another inner metal bumper put in:






    Beautiful brake lines at the back:

    Took the hole interior out, because i dont like light interiors, and all black interior will be going in




    19.01.2013

    So i bought 16" Oem E60 wheels to use for the winter, and changed the rear brake lines so i can brake properly

    Couple of shots of it:

    Real nice pickup and turn around. I love e39s, they look especially sinister in black.

      I love the "summer" wheels. Just wrap them in lower tyres.

      Are you planing to fix the rear end (metal piece)?

      I like it so far.

        I love me some e39. Curious as to what the exhaust will sound like... and how you're going to route the pipes.

                      A little update, finished installing rest of the interior last night, waxed the car and took pictures today.
                      Today i changed the front left ABS censor which was broken.
                      Also changed the rear swaybar links and install M-tech rear swaybar.

                      Pictures of the interior:

                          Great find, and great work bud. Black on Black is always a winner.
