Wow, five MONTHS without an update! But I got paint! This isn't an exceptionally big one, content wise, but I got lots of pictures(crap quality pictures.)

Since then...

New fenders, so I could roll them the way I wanted to



Hard Motorsport flares are here!







Getting some rust taken care of





Arty fartsy insert



Depo headlights came in



Then, this fucking happened. Thanks to major construction on a major roadway on my daily commute from work. Car sat for a week before the new pan was installed



What a fucking pain in the fucking ass. Took me a solid 8 hours to do this pan, working on smaller jobs on the side. Took the day off for the most part.



Pulling the fenders



New tires went on in the rear. Went with 215/40/17 Nankangs this time. Fronts are also 215s

This is the fitment I'm aiming for. Unfortunately for this to work, I would need to modify the arches further more on the passenger side; for now I raised it about an inch so it would clear. Don't want to risk any body work right before SoWo..





The day after. A coworker trying to show off on his new bike side-swipped me.



No worries; he payed up and we hit up the junk yard to find this fender in fairly good condition. Luckily, my front finish panel was still good.



Now, the big step. What color did I go with? Got M3 side skirts painted as well, which I should be installing tomorrow.

Black Forever





It's time for LASIK. Or something like that. Honestly, I kind of miss the amber corners. Might have to swap them back





That's it for now. Did small things like refresh the body trim and such. Still have to mount the front tires tomorrow and align it, then install the sideskirts and give the wheels a nice polishing. That's about it for this year's SoWo prep.

Why does the title refer to a rough translation of "Afternoon Crown?"

i know クラウン　means crown and 　ひるごはん　means lunch. ひろ　or ヒル　meaning like afternoon or late afternoon.

Why does the title refer to a rough translation of "Afternoon Crown?"

Supposed to be a very rough translation for "Crown Hill"

[oprahhwinfreyy]

I figured that to but I know thats a street in Florida. I suppose thats where you live?

[SnazzyQ]

Dang that was a roller coaster of an update.

This is still the only e36 i like.

[Mehowski]

[TWM Performance]

Those work wheels are pretty insane! Im looking at getting a set of Meister CRo1's. They just offer so much variety on offset....

[NathanE-94]

This is so cool!! <3

[moomoopanda]

car looks good on the KF's. really like those rear flares.. will have to look into that soon.

throw some 15mm adapters in the rear instead of the 19mm and get some stiffer 4" rear springs and lower the rearrrr... (or some 326power 3" springs).

Thanks a lot asshole, now I want another e36 sweet ride man

[Mudcoatedgolfer]

This is so much awesome! I love JDM styled euro builds, the whole IDGAF attitude of teir builds is so much more fun than try-hard euro builds.

I cant help think that the Stock bumper looks better than the M-sport one though.

[Meeve]

wow nice stance!! I like the poke
