BMW E36 M3: A New Journey

[pogifresh]

hi swaggy

[CBREEZ]

I like where this is going!

[radiokilla]

Oh boy, going to make this a long story short.

I still have the car I just forgot to update my thread.

NEW THINGS:

Depo Headlights
Broadway Static Coilovers
New Wheels/Tires
New Rennstall Shifter

Onto the pics!

Before New Headlights:


Installing: I should have known I needed to get some harnesses and when I finally got mine from ECS they only sent one, so this was delayed by another week haha






Now instead of looking like candles in a jar, the headlights are like flashlights in a jar basically the same terrible visibility, but hey i'll take it.




Video!!!!

Wheels before:


New Fitment: 5x114.3 17x9 ET +10 17x9.5 ET+15 SSR SP1 (SBC Finish with polished lips)


Night time roller:


Last one: Tossed a roofbox on it was pretty sweet!


Rennstall Shifter one of one White with Black Lettering! And for those of you wondering, no I don't punch the radio going into 3rd gear, it actually feels really good even without a short shift kit.

Thanks! Ah unfortunately I can't remove it quite yet (in need of a front end respray)

Haha agreed!

Ah yeah, once I get a respray I'll remove it!

[Benwalsh91]

that USA steering wheel kills the interior

[parttimeprojectionist]

was literally looking at those rennstalls in white today thinking about how it would look with black lettering, crazy!! cars looking great. roof boxes are always a good idea haha.

[Profitable]

Keep the hood bra!

[Quillhill36]

Any updates on this? Great progress in a good direction regardless

[radiokilla]

I TOOK THE HOOD BRA OFF OKAY GUYS ITS ONLY TAKEN ME 5 YEARS LOOL

Thank you to @dakdp for helping me pick up a new hood I found on craigslist, already painted cosmos to boot! Also he gave me his nose panel and I swapped in some french headlights (not pictured)

OH also I went through a few sets of wheels including BBS RS, Panasport G7C5C2, Superstar Dish, and finally I switched back to 5x120 with a set of BBS RF011 and RF010


Pics!!

Taking apart the front end to do headlight swap, nose panel swap, and hood swap

All assembled and on the Superstar dishes, these wheels were sent to me incorrectly sized at 9.5 final offset +7 even though I was told they were 9j, I was rubbing tire in front driving straight and after a while i was a little sketched out so I sold them. They sure looked pretty though!

The BBS RF's, funny story these actually came from a super old build thread on here, and many years later I own them!

Did black caps on one side, and silver caps on the other side to start, but ended up painting them all black (they are no longer silver hex caps after this photo)
