W124 rude merc uk

[camproger]

Hi all

So after selling my VW van i decided to buy myself a W123 as I couldnt find a BMW e21 in my budget



I found this one in a yard just 2 mins away from my house and it was very clean apart from a few spots that needed painting which have since been done.

So it needed some new shoes so I bought a set of ZW1's



I split them and had the centres painted



then i started to lower it fitting e36 coilovers and so far this is the result

I like it. Love the wheel choice. Are they body colored or black?

[GTOguy]

Looks pretty cool. I'm looking forward to seeing the final result

[camproger]

They are colour coded to the car and will have polished lips

[SD202]

[VanDamage]

E36 coilovers just bolt up? That's awesome. Can't wait to see progress on this.

Awesome. How do you fit e36 coilovers? It cant be that simple surely? What engine you got?

[AMGwheelwhore]

There's a thread on here they bolt right up it's fairly simple think you have to redrill the strut mounts though...

[camproger]

its a 230, front coilover are a straight fit, just need to remove the srings befor fitting, the rest of the car is just chossing the correct springs.

but its deffo going on air by the summer if not before

[LukeyBabes]

Air will be awesome.

[camproger]
