    That's freakin nuts. I don't think I have ever seen an e36 with a stance like yours on 16's. Its soo money. I'm quite jealous.

      Sad you had to let the skyline go, but you pulled off this car so nicely.

          thankyou! the raise isn't enough for my liking, but i know what you mean, i'll either raise it slightly more or remove them completely.... kinda goes with the rough and ready look (battered arches, no door strips and holes left un filled etc etc.)



          All these posts make putting this car together so worthwhile!! BIG THANKS TO ALL!!!

            Nice work, is that Montreal Blue?

            If you keep the oem bumper then do you have any plans for a front lip?

              Thanks, not 100% but think it is montreal....

              keeping the bumper, hadn't thought about any front lip, was gonna look at fitting a splitter from another UK car, a Renault Laguna, but not sure yet...

              Any ideas?

              I really want a bumper strip that deletes the number plate mount.... sure i've seen them on some US E36's before, does anyone know where i might get on of these? really want to go plate-less!!

                bavauto.com has it. you would have to check if they ship international.

                  If I'm not mistaken, the front plate delete strip is an oem part. Check out realoem.com for a part number and then go through a distributor in your area.

                  As for the lip, yeah there are a few that look nice/decent on the non-M bumbers imo: Alpina, Racing Dynamics, Reiger, ACS but they're all hard to come across... at least the legit ones.

                    Thanks dude, i dont think i'll be paying big bucks for anything to go on the bumper, it will last about 5 minutes with the roads over here but thanks for the suggestions

                      if you dont have any luck with them, i inquired at ecstuning.com. they ship internationally. here is the part #. plug it into their search bar and you will see the listing. 51111977306

                        thank you for your help again. bav auto emailed back yesterday afternoon, and i've ordered my plate delete panel

                        a cheap part but shipping was about 5 times the cost of the part!! at least i've got the right part that i want tho....

                        Cheers buddy

                                thanks for the comment mate!

                                don't think it's the same as i have bought, mine has no dropped bit, just looks like the rear bumper insert when fitted.... and i think the m3 bumper has a different shaped insert, not sure tho.

                                an expensive part for me if you can get it in the UK for £15!!!

                                where abouts in devon are you from? i'm in exeter...
                                and are you going to the german car meet in torquay on 11th july???
