Im fairly new to this site, just posted my intro probably like 2 weeks ago but i thought i would show the work and progress of my car.
I bought the 325i back in October for about $1200 which was a steal in my opinion it just needed some work.
Thats a picture from the day i brought the car home with my dad. Turned out that my differential was loose and the bolts that hold it to the chasis broke off. Long story short and $80 bucks later we got some reinforcement plates and the car ran like new without and problems.
Crappy quality but the car was on the lift and thats my dad getting the welder ready .
I'll skip a head alittle and continue with mechanical and body work that was done to the car.
My nose panel was completely ruined and my right fender was rusted out so i bought both and my dad and i replaced the fender and nose panel one weekend.
I drove around with a black nose panel and black fender for about 3-4 months until summer rolled around and i just waited for the week that my car would go and get painted.
Well about 3 weeks ago the car finally went off to get completely re-painted.
Before i show the end result of the paint ill add in some things i forgot to mention.
After fixing the differential i found a nice setup of shocks and struts for my car used but in very nice condition, so this is where the stance part takes place.
After lowering it i set my mind to find some decent rims, nothing TOO expensive but something too make the car stand-out and presentable.
I got a email from a friend with these for sale and they really caught my attention since i love BBS style rims and these are LM Reps so i decided to go a head and buy them.
The car painted with the lights and moldings all back in place. The paint turned out better then i expected it too come out and just makes the car look so much newer.
And then its came time to put it all together...
And this is where i am right now after 8 months of work...
This is not the end off my build i plan on getting some coil-overs to go as low as you guys and angel eyes with some nice lighting setup is in the plans as well.
Thanks for checking my car out.
