  1. Anyone out there know if the E36 Door cards can by recovered? I hear it is mission? Ive been trying to find a replacement drivers door card in black centre trim for a 4 door and apparently they are rare as?? I have now owned 2 BMWs with black trim, but this is the 1st that has started peeling around the door handle. It cant be that rare as I have seen heaps of them with black instead of grey or white trim. Any ideas? Can a motor trimmer fix it or should I keep hunting for 2nd hand? I can imagine a new one would be like mega bucks so not too keen to go down that road. Maybe someone might happen to have a black trim drivers door card for a 4 door E36 lying around that they wanna sell, it has to be all intact tho no peeling off. Cheers, Andrew.

    Very tidy, I love the Green. I nearly bought a 328i Coupe the same colour. The Wheels set it off I say. Maybe MSport front bumper would be all you would change. :mosh:
  3. Well I went and ripped out the Hoodlining and the Sunroof Mech the other day. Wasnt too hard to take it out, the replacement parts are about $400 for the sunroof kit (From dealership). Hopefully it shouldnt be too hard to put it all back in. Still not sure about the power issue though. Anyone out there ever had problems with a "Comfort Relay"? Apparently it controls Windows, Sunroof, Central Lock etc. Hey thanks for the offer of the parts, I decided to get them new as at least I know I have a comeback if something plays up. Cheers.
  4. Just imported a 98 e36 320 sedan with sunroof, and low and behold there was no sunroof motor. I guess someone must have pulled it out in Japan. So I went and got a motor (which i have tested and is ok) but it didnt make the sunroof work, I have been told this could possibly be a relay in behind the dash that could have a dry joint? (I have tested the switch which is ok). Now we went to wind the sunroof manually so the Painter could paint the roof, but now it is stuck in tilt postion and will not go back, this I am told is most likely some plastic clip things that have busted and will need to be replaced. Has anyone had similar problems? It looks like I will have to remove the Hood lining and take out the sunroof mech to either repair or replace the whole mech 2nd Hand. As for the power problem, I dont even know where the relay is to fix it. I would have no problem in repairing it if I knew where it was. Suggestions? Should I repair the Sunroof Mech? or buy a 2nd hand one for $350 and chuck it back in? Does anyone have any ideas or links that may help? Thanks :banghead:

    Yeah I have been thinkin about something different on the front. Maybe a add on bit under the original bumper maybe. Im tryin to go for the clean look, so no big chunky bits hangin off. I would love to do an engine conversion but really its prolly just as easy to slap a supercharger or turbo on and leave it at that. Hmmmmmmm supercharger kit....... If only I had a spare $5500US

    Thanks guys. The Lowering cost me $495 with an alignment but that was a bit of a deal. Just so you know I have now vaccumed the car, as you can see I only have a carport no power. Kinda makes it hard. If anyone knows where to pick up a set of e46 lookalike eyelids it would greatly appreciated.

    Insane audi crash

    Grant - YES it did happen there. Quite a few years back tho. It was a Blue TX3i Hatch. Funny if you did see it.

    Insane audi crash

    This is entirely possible. A very good friend of mine had a crash very similar to this one a few years back pretty funny story actually. This friend and his mate were stropping out in his TX3i (pretty grunty lil car back then) goin about 180km/h or there abouts coming home from a party a lil pissed and on a really shitty night. They all of a sudden come to a Y junction where if you turn right the road is cambered enough to take at that kinda speed, but for some reason he turns left. The car gets airborne so his only reaction is to hit the brakes and pull the handbrake and hold on. Somehow the car bounced up and hit a tree going backwards ripping the front of the car off from the dashboard forward leaving the drivers compartment pretty intact except for no pedals and no dash. They both wake up still in the back part of the car with the front half about 20-30m away (apparently with the lights still going) pointing back at them. Both walked away unscathed. VERY lucky indeed. This is no BS I have seen the newspaper arcticle and photos etc, the only thing possibly diputable is whether the light were still going which I guess is possible but far fetched. So moral of the story is TREE is harder than CAR EVERYTIME. :banghead:
