It's Back. Again. - E46 BMW
This is my third "build" thread for the same car. I haven't done anything since the last update on my old thread so this is all going to be new.
To shed a little quick update of what I've done; I replaced the front amber turn signals with white ones, installed FK Streetline Coilovers, rewired and replaced the cars audio system. Other than those simple 3 things the car has not really been modified besides a couple sets of wheels and tires. *In photos below the rear is higher off of the ground because I was recently running a bigger set of wheels and tires. Once I get my new spacers I will lower the back and roll the fenders after I know how it is sitting.
The car is currently sitting on BMW Style 106's 17x8" ET 47 with 205/40/17 Falken 912's. The widths of the wheels are a little disappointing, I'll just have to live with it I guess. The front currently has a 30mm spacer on it but I have a new 40mm spacer to replace it with coming in the mail from Adaptec Speedware. And don't worry, I got a 45mm spacer for the rear. The tuck in the rear right now is horrendous.
This Tuesday I will have new GEOMET cross drilled/slotted rotors and Hawk HPS brake pads delivered. I'll most likely have them on the next day, I will be sure to update with pictures.
This Spring my checklist includes; replacing my cars amber/red taillights with white/red ones, replacing the stock muffler with a Magnaflow muffler and getting a OEM European license plate bracket and shark fin antenna painted. I might also do some pillar/headliner rewraps for the inside of the car. Hopefully I can "complete" my car before I head off to college next year at Arizona State.
And before you look at the pictures, yeah the car is fucking dirty. It needs a good wash.
^ I have a set of Style 68's for sale, they are staggered, 7.5" and 8.5" I also have a set of 17" Style 5's with white faces, the lips need to be re-polished!
