97' Hellrot M3

[emir]

Hello,

My name is Emir and I'm from the Bay Area(San Jose, Ca). I purchased my 1997 Hellrot red coupe from a gentleman living in SF. The gentleman who had the car was his Grand Dad's who passed away about a year ago. The car had been driven a little since his death but then sat in the garage most of the time. The car was purchased in Beverley Hills Bmw and made its way to the Bay. I have owned the car now for quite some time and loved it ever since. As soon as I purchased the car I knew I was gonna do mods to it. To follow my build you can also follow me on Instagram------------> @Emirkai



First things first, soon as I bought the car I took the seats out vacuumed/cleaned everything including the engine bay. After doing some maintenance on the car the first thing I came across was these black refinished style 5

I polished and cleaned the wheels before putting them on. When I put the wheels on it gave the car a complete different look.





I wanted to go lower on all 4 sides and ordered some Bc racing coilovers butttt they took some time to come in...so I purchased a intake



They came!!!!

I installed my coilovers with help of a buddy and then bought smaller tires so that I can go lower and not rub.

Welll...after all that I had to get my fenders rolled because I was still rubbing in the front and rear. I purchased a fender roller at a local shop and rolled them myself.

I for sure wanted to buy a wing but did not know which kind to get then this happened...with a help of a friend(robthabavarian) gave me ideas on what I should do and helped install it. I picked out small red washers and riveted the wing on the trunk.

Idk how I feel about the wing..I have really been thinking about getting a Ltw wing. I like the style of the ltw a lot. Also, going to be picking up a new trunk this weekend instead of getting mine repainted since the clear coat is peeling on the top.

I like this a lot

[emir]

Thanks man! More future updates to!

[fackinsteve]

Looks good man! Agree with you on the wing though an LTW would look great on there

[bdsevern]

I dig the wing man!

[devildriver.ab]

If you get an LTW and want to sell this wing let me know, I would be interested in buying it for sure

[emir]

I suck at making decisions haha but I think its time for a change for "2016". I really love the ltw wing a lot and I think it'd look really clean on "Hellrot"
