Default Second Chance

I bought another 318ti recently with 68k miles. This thread will be used to show the changes that my ti will go through.

The first thing I did was change the stock taillights to euro style aftermarket lights. I also switched the amber turn indicators to clear ones. I have an e36 m3 steering wheel and I plan on switching it over soon. I also plan on painting the rims white.

That's what I was saying? I lucked out and am very happy with my purchase. I already ordered some parts for it. Will post pics as soon as those parts are installed.

Thanks, as far as I know it has the stock sport suspension. The m3 steering wheel should be going on next weekend. I had to order bulbs for the cluster. I'm thinking of getting a different set of wheels. That's about it for now, school loans are taking the majority of my spending money.
