Thanks guys, i've been working on my fenders the past few days and now they are finally ready for rolling. I took out all the rubber thing inside the fenders and applied a bit of undercoating to prevent rust. I'll be rolling them this afternoon and fitting in the squared roadstars i bought. Gotta get the car ready for Eurokracy in Montreal next weekend !!
Naked
Undercoated
I also bought those at a car scrap yard called Kenny U Pull for about 5$ lol
What's up guys, sorry for the lack of updates, i've been pretty busy with finals and i went on a little trip to Florida with my girl. Anyways, managed to get work done on the e36 the last few week. Got the broadways on 3 weeks ago. Gotta say they are the bomb! Really smooth drive and they can get you as low as you want.
Here is how it looks with the bws on !
I was a bit to low so my inner fender liner was rubbing on my tire, i just took a jack knife and cut out the area that caused problems. I like the result because it works fine, i didn't have to completely remove it and i don't really like the look when they are!
Next up i finally received my new rear plastic window! Wasn't to hard to install, it came with a new zipper slider and a glue type product to seal the window. 30 minutes with 2 pair of hands and voila.
Got a little diy lip installed, result is ok for now. Would love to get my hands on an AC Schnitzer non-m lip but they are so expensive, i can't really afford it right now.
So next thing is fender rolling! I've been trying to get rid of the sticky shit they put in the rear fenders to prevent rust for the past 3 days. i swear it's a PITA. Lot's of sweat and swears but i'm getting there.
When that's done, i'll be rolling my fender to fit those in cant wait.
Received a new front licence plate delete moulding. looks much better now.
Took my rear headrest out too, i really like the flow of the car without them.
After that... i had to figure out a way to cover the holes where the headrests were. $$ this is what i came up with
OK i know the seats seem dirty.. i'll have to figure out a way to get those black lines cleaned.
Next up was my front headlights. I used the mcguiars headlight restoration kit and it works pretty well i have to say.
before
after
now i have to buy headlight washer nozzle delete caps because i got rid of that useless crap and i started to paint my front kidneys black!
Get your self a hardtop sir... and say "Nah Na Na my brotha " to the rag top. GL
In fact i really like the soft top. think i might just keep it that way. I like the hardtop look but it's not what i'm looking for, not right now at least.
Okay so i went for my first little drop top ride yesterday with a buddy of mine... i think my plastic window was kinda old, dry or something. It cracked a bit after i dropped the top...
guess i'll have to buy a new one cause i really cant see shit right now.
After that i decided to clean my interior a bit. Got my seats out to get every piece of carpet clean.
Also decided to wash my cup holders and other stuff on my center console. They didn't seem that dirty but my armorall wipes told me they were!!
No pics of that but debaffled my airbox too, pretty good free mod. Nice little sound upgrade around 3000rpm!
Thought i'd share this with you guys! Saw this a couple of days ago and really liked it.
Oh man good question, i'm changing idea everyday haha, but i would love autostrada modena wheels or HRE 505's.. something like that. We'll see!! I love your car btw, great build.
Thanks bud. I vote for Modena's as they look a bit more modern of the two.
This could be good. What wheels did you have in mind?
