  1. I have had the same problem on my black trim - I used a bit of tyre black paint (can't remember the brand) and carefully using a rag went over all the black trims - rubbing the paint in. Once it dried, i went over it with Meguiar's Ultimate Protectant - I wash my car every week, and every two weeks reapply some of the Ultimate Protectant. Another product I have been recommend is Meguiar's Trim Detailer - but I haven't used this before so can't comment. I have also been recommended bee's wax.


  2. My brother's poor lil E30 got side swiped in a car park hes only got 3rd party insurance, and doesn't know who damaged his car. Anyway - just want to remove the dented door, just need a red door shell (even if it's super faded) I can replace all the windows etc from the old door.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Thanks


  3. Yep GT spoiler, very cool. To add to it you could get the GT front splitter too.

    I have the front lip and a pair of splitters for it, just not sure if they are the GT ones. Just need to find the time to put them on, and get the mesh for my front bumper


  4. Jesus fecking christ, that spoiler is epic.

    What type is it? I think I might do the same :P

    Looks awesome btw!

    Thanks guys!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's an E36 M3 Evo GT spoiler.

    google it, the genuine ones have extensions, so they sit higher like on the GT Race car.

    I absolutely love my car especially now that it's stone chip free


  5. Hi Shorty, Looks like I have some stiff competion for the show'n'shine. It looks great. You have done a great job.

    Don't listen to all those muppets who criticise your car. They are only envious that they don't own it.

    Cheers Brian, yea I can switch off when it comes to criticism, at the end of the day it's what makes me happy!


  6. Ok so just got home from work, picked my car up this morning from the painters, and couldn't wait to get some photos, so I will post them up now, but they are not the best, the lighting was pretty poor so will post some more up over the weekend if the weather is mint!

  7. Nope, those are just a face-lift version of the e36, I upgraded mine from non face-lift to face-lift in my e36

    That's right, these this E36 is a '98 so it's a facelift - but I believe it's had a minor frontal, which is probably why it doesn't quite look right.

    Once it goes in for a re-spray I also have a front lip, and front splitters to add to the front end, the GT rear spoiler for the rear end and just waiting on the bumper mesh :)


  8. Front bumper needs a paint.

    Looks good.

    It sure does, lucky you can't see the bonnet then... it's obviously had a minor frontal before, and the bonnet has been bogged, and painted, and the paint has cracked heaps.. so that is next on the list (before the festival of Motor Racing next year!)


  9. Sure will be, although they are second hand wheels so there are a few kerb marks on them already, and having guards that touched the rims didn't help keep them scratch free, although thats all sorted now and they will be coming off sometime soon for a re-surfacing :)

    You'll be keeping well clear of the kerbs then .... B)
