But my only problem is that its me and my dad replacing everything. So i was wondering if any of u guys could direct me to a guide on how to replace a fender and hood, i know its basic stuff pretty much, but we have never done it and everyones gotta start somewhere right? Here are some pics of my wreck too. | | | 07-08-2007, 08:55 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Stamford, CT <-> Boston, MA Posts: 1,393 | The Bentley E36 Service Manual is your golden ticket for those two guides. With a little Googling I found a mirror for the service manual, I recommend you save it. -link-removed- (Note that it's an illegal digital copy, at least I believe it is) __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .

If it doesn't come off, don't force it. __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .
