  • MGRAND3 the build of my e36 M3

    well name is Miguel, bought my e36 2 years ago. My car is a 1997 boston green m3, and here is my journey.

    when i first bought it


    I really didn't do much at first but maintenance, being a broke college student.

    just enjoyed driving the car, then i had a small incident in the canyons. i Decided while i fixed the fender I might as well paint the whole car. while i was at it i got new coilovers. ksport kontrol pros.

    soon after i got myself a Grip Royal, Royal Hills steering wheel and a momo hub as a birthday gift to myself.

    I then had a custom cat back made, no muffler and finished off with ASPEC blast pipes.


    i was back and forth about wheels, did not know what to get. almost fell into temptations and test fitted some Varrstoens, but i couldn't justify spending money on reps, so held off and waited some more.



    picked up, some style 19s in terrible shape, but rediculously cheap. previous owner had rattlecanned them several times, lips bolts and all, had rash aswell, so my rebuild process started.















    lots of time was spent stripping, sanding out rash, polishing the lips powdercoating the faces. but it was well worth it.

    and here we are today some recent pics from a photoshoot i did recently, i still need to lower my fronts some more.

        here is an update from the infamous car show at the queen Mary this weekend. the show was cool, lots of cool cars. but also some trash i thought they were going to prescreen the entries, because pics were required. i saw lots of shitty hondas on xxrs, a tc on painted stockies.

        heres some pics my friends over at Media Junkies captured.

                      A small update, not much has happened, I recently got rid of the grip royal steering wheel, and copped a vertex racing steering wheel. I wanted something quality. but didn't want your typical personal/nardi setups. I know it wont be everyone's cup of tea but I'm happy with it.

                      vertex racing wheel. made by atc, the same manufacturers of key's racing.330mm

                              This . Reminds me of that sloppy drunk slut that gets taken home from the bar by a different guy every night. This is not a sexy pose at all.......... Clean car though , Really like the white on green with gold bolts so fresh.
