    Default My bmw e36 coupe

    Well, new to the site Here's my car anyway. ( Nothing compared to most of the cars on this site! )

    Selling the previous e36 for parts so picked this up for 600 quid. Had no NCT and no Tax and 176k miles on the clock. Wasn't really much wrong with it when i bought it. Just needed one of the rear axle bushings and a new thermostat ( got the thermostat from the old car so saved some money there ) Went into NCT first time and failed on wishbone bushings, brake lines and airbag light wasn't working. Got it all sorted, re test and got NCT for 3 months then cause of back date -_- booked in again for September now. With the nct out of the way for a while it was time to start making the car look better.

    The first day i got it:





    First things i did was that i changed the steering wheel and changed the headlining from white to black ( got both things from the old bmw so no money spent again ) No picture of the new headlining tho.


    Next i changed the grill from chrome to black which made it 100 times better imo.



    Got rid of the 318is badge



    Then i ordered German plates, angel eyes, boot lid lip and m3 style front bumper.

    Angel eyes are to bright for my phones camera :





    And that's how she is right now Have a few more plans but first i'm gonna get the NCT out of the way again.

    Anyway the plans are :

    Bmw business CD player
    18 Button OBC
    Tint the rear windows
    Black leather interior
    New alloys ( Rota Grids )
    Lower it
    New engine ( from 328 or m3 )
    LSD

    But it will be many many many months before i do any of that cause the funds just don't allow it for now unfortunately

    Gave a wall a little love tap and it never looked alright from the front anymore, Clutch was going in it, leaking about 1l of oil a week and just needed few other bits for NCT.
