    Nice find Tim! Yeah those lights are the bomb....

    Do you have plans on doing the welding upgrade to the rear so it won't rip out the ass end again? They'll last just fine for normal driving, but the E36 has an inherent problem with the rear subframe, unless the modification is done.

    Love those wheels on an E36, are they the real deal?

    You need a set of silver Motorsport flag decals, it would add about 30 hp...but it would look sooooo koooool, especially with the black/silver wheel combo.

    Have fun with it!

    Those were only Alpine. You could also see MTech Amaretta sports interior, which is obviously not on this one.

    Lots of questions... this is def just a normal 325, not the m-tech or anything. The rear is not an M3 bumper, but a standard E36 with the BavAuto insert... also, no side skirts. Headlights will be sold to recoup $$ and replaced with a cleaned up set of stock headlights (read: free). Paint doesn't look quite that good now (pic is about a year old) due to neglect, but a good polish and maybe color sand would take care of that. Again, elbow grease is free... we'll see what the budget decides. And yeah, they're real double-spokes. One has a slight bend, but it holds air and doesn't wobble too badly or anything.

    Subframe has a little wiggle in it (rear end squirms/hops sideways if you hit a bump while cornering), so it'll come out and have the bushings replaced (since that's what puts the strain on the sheet metal in the first place) and reinforcements installed while I'm in there.
