  1. Cheers man. Ordered the set of suede boots and armrest from the UK. Been meaning to replace the black with a set of white boots. Think it would stand out a little better and match the interior. Keen to hear opinions. They're genuine wheel whore. Ex factory, 7.5 all round. I do however need to get them reconditioned sometime. The previous owners managed to somehow scratch and scrap every single wheel. Cheers. I don't know about the wood. Its not the colour or grain I was thinking of but Ray's a legend and found it for me. Running it for the moment until I find another set. Kinda 50/50 atm.Cheers for the comments guys.
  2. Haha, cheers guys. The opinions I was expecting! Only really running them today cause I was just extremely pleased they actually fitted. Anyways I like 'em so you guys can get stuffed
  3. Latest update! Clear rear tail lights, Roof Racks, Wood grain trim, M3 Mirrors and Painted Lip Spoiler. Also have replaced all the perishing rubbers around the rear window and the vent windows. Awesome drive out to Piha with my mate. Love it there, definitely my favourite place. Had to get some pictures. Roof racks are actually E34 racks, genuine. Cheers to Nick (.e36) for your help yet again! Cut them down about an inch and now they fit perfectly. And look amazing IMO. Bonus that they came with ski and snowboard locking holders! Score! Got M3 side mouldings courtesy of Nigel. BMW want $5 each for the clips! With the amount I need that's over $120! Yea, right. Will be ordering off pelican parts soon. Also still have that awesome Strut Brace which I have been meaning to get polished. Someday. Lowering. Coming soon... Hopefully.
  4. September 28th '09 Dying the new leather door cards Black! The ones I got were grey so they would have looked silly with everything else black. Thread Used VHT Satin Black Vinyl Dye. Would strongly recommend. Goes on awesome and has that cool little sprayer nozzle that none others have Before Right and After Left. October 6th '09 The biggest change to the car. White Leather Electric Sports Seats and Umnitza Angel Eyes. Leathers awesome, completely changes the feel and look of the interior and the Angel eyes look amazing in my opinion. Thread 1, 2 Probably missed a few things but these are the main posts. Always replacing little bits to make it minter. I will update this thread now. Cheers guys.
  5. Thought I'd combine the threads I have started in the past into one Project thread. Although it's not gonna be a huge transformation with engine swaps and suspension overhauls I thought I may as well have one place where I can update for those who are interested (and so I can see how far its come!). April 7th '08 The original trade me photos! Picked up 7th April '08 from Thames. Awesome drive back. Stock as it came out of factory except for a headunit and hot air intake Thread June 30th '08 First upgrade was a center armrest. Best upgrade you can do to the interior of an E36. Thread Before: After: February 17th '09 Installed 5000k white bulbs into the fogs, low and high beams. Made the front end of the look so much more modern. Also German plates finally! June 7th '09 De-spoilered. Turned out better than I thought it would. Looks a sh*tload cleaner. Very happy. Then afterwards added one of my black lip spoilers. August 27th '09 The Bimmer got more presents than me! Suede Gear and handbrake boots and armrest cover. ZHP Weighted shortshifter gear knob. Angel Eyes and eyelids.
  6. Just install Music Rescue to your computer. Done. Shows what's on your iPod and then you can choose what you want to copy to the computer.
  7. Looked awesome! ^^ Wonder whats wrong with it?
  8. Have a couple. Only really picked up as they were both complete bargains. xxotic and r17 I'm of the opinion that a plate depending on the sort of plate has to suit the car. Like for example I wouldn't put xxotic on my 323, probably not even an M3. But the chick I bought it off had it on a Subaru! What?!?!
  9. Happy Birthday mate. Still keen on all those magazines I have lying around? Can bring them to the next South Auck meet if you're gonna be there. A late present!
  10. These cheap units can only be wired to the park lights. Quality sets have a harness which is independent to the lights and then you can wire them anyway you could ever dream of. Also a lot safer seeing as these kits will have inverters.
  11. Spotted Yongxi out at Piha today. Looking good man. And also a calypso e36 coupe with a mint as chick driving. Looked stunning!
  12. To be honest I can't at all see that the quality is going to be the same as a $200 set of angels with lifetime warranties. I looked into angel eyes for over a year until I settled on a set of Orions from Umnitza. Might be more expensive but worth it. From all the people I have met through trade me dealings and through Bimmersport I can easily say over 70% have had problems with cheap trade me kits. You get what you pay for. My 2c.
  13. Still easily the best project on Bimmersport IMO. Looks great mate.
  14. Don't agree with a few points. Firstly I only use a chamois to dry the car. A synthetic one though. Armorall is the only one I use as all others just don't have the same feel and leave streak marks. My armorall chamois gets 99% of the water off the surface leaves no streak marks and no water spots. Only thing I would ever use to dry a car. All the towels and microfibre cloths I have used put bits off fluff all over the car and leave streak marks and don't actually get all the water. Theres really only point to rinsing the car with out the nozzle and letting the water sheet off if you have a pretty superb coat of polish on the car. Before I polished mine it would just sit and now after I can rinse the roof and it will dry itself in 2 minutes. My 2 cents And also when washing if you've done the top of the car and rinsed it, continue to rinse it when ever you was off another spot. So none of the water anywhere on the car has a chance to dry. Thats how you get some pretty stubborn spots.
  15. Jeez, looks amazing. I wish I knew someone who could even take half decent pictures of my car!
  16. Will see how I'm going time wise mate. Otherwise I'm sure I can put them aside till the next South Auck meet. You could grab them then. I'll call you if I can make it. Cheers
  17. Midday tomorrow i'll be heading down to the mount for new years. Looks like you're in luck. text me so I have your cell and we'll arrange a time either tomorrow arvo or 31st if you're around. Cheers --- 5 Evo's. Don't want any 'Car' mag's. Very similar to Evo.
