Nothing crazy, but its a start. Got my windows done, euro tails, and smoked corners. I have my ///M mirrors and M-Tech Front bumper painted but I havent put them on the car yet. Im thinking of waiting until after winter to install them...well atleast the bumper. Next will be DDM Headlights & Fogs W/ HID's, Rims, and Springs. Apologize for the new pics, as they were taken with a phone.

Dude, you take better photos than most that HAVE a good camera.
I see these adds on craigslist, and you can't even tell if it's a Bimmer or not.

:biggrin:

Car looks good. Wanna sell it cheap? I'll gladly pay yu on Tuesday for a ti today...

:rolleyes:

Lookin good man. Tint makes a huge difference. But isn't that illegal? Im from Illinois too and i know people that get tickets for having there front windows tinted. Is it different up near chicago? I bet cops are pre-occupied with worse stuff up there.

They are illegal, any tint on the front windows can result in a 25$ fix it ticket if a cop see's you and is bored enough to give you a ticket. Although in downtown Chi theyre handing out 250$ tickets because there was a cop that was shot buy a blacked out car...cop walked up to the window of the car, guy opened the window and shot him and drove away....nobody even found out who did it. But ya it totally changes the look of a car. Every single car ive owned has had 5% tint all around.

Im gonna order smoked sidemarkers next week, u guys probably didnt notice but only the right side of hte car has a sidemarker on it. Im guessing the car was hit on the left side and they just never put it back on, so im gonna have to take it into a body shop and get that done also.

Dude i think it looks sweet without the side marker. from the picture it just looks clean and smooth. If theres no divot from a missing sidemarker you should take it to shop and get the other one shaved off instead. Me like!

i think it looks boring without the side markers... clear or smoked would have looked gud.

it must have been hit in the fender and had the fender replaced with one for an early E36 without sidemarkers, I agree that it looks clean but I like the sidemarkers for some reason :?

"& please stay away from 18s & 19s... "

18's are OK I think. I have Mille Miglia MM11-3s that are 18" and they look perfect. They're light too.

Yea i got the axis penta 18's and love them. They still fit perfect with my car lowered with sport HR/bilsteins. Looks sweet. Sorry no pics yet of after suspension done.

yea 19's was a bad choice. I really wanted those tsw mondello's and they couln't get any 18's for months so i settled for 19's. 19's are only good for looks.
