  1. my friend sold his for around $12k not long ago with 100 ks and another member sold his for 10500? with 80 or 90ks. both were 323i msports 2006. given the low kms its an ok price but i personally think its a bit on the expensive side.

    Quick rant thread.

    Its bloody exp to list a car on tm too
  3. after an extensive search, i found that on the e46 its most likely N6TT which is montana leather and grey or aka dove grey. its probably a shade darker than light grey which i have in my e36. i wonder if it would look strange if i replaced just the front 2 seats from it..

    Sunday drive

    haha mike thats very cool. keen for the drive next time if im invited
  5. no idea, the trademe username was "beemn" i have no way of contacting the seller as the auctions closed so cant ask any questions
  6. Does anyone know what the colour code is for a grey leather interior found in the e46 clubsport? im looking to replace my front two seats in the e36 which is "leader casual/hellgrau (p7th)" and was wondering if it is the same.. thanks!
  7. I do prefer the pfl grills but the problem is finding fl grills if the nose panel is for the fl.

    E34 535i

    Lol wouldnt be suprised if seller didnt know what a compression test was. He says it was listed with wrong details (title says 530i) and corrects it by saying its a 530i? Pics clearly show an m30b35 lol..
  9. Do a factory reset on your monitor lol. Is there a way to tell if the nosel panel fits facelift grills or pfl?
  10. Hey ash. Its the passenger front guard for my coupe (see projects for my thread) so ill pass. Thanks for the offer though! I actually found both parts at pickapart in mangere in the right colour (boston green) so i might as well pick it up since it will just bolt straight on. Im just not sure what year car the nose panel is off cuz the grills have already been removed from it.
  11. Hi guys, On my e36 there is some damage to the passenger side front corner and I am looking to replace the nose panel and the fender/guard instead of getting it repaired. I have done some research and just want to confirm my findings. nose panel will fit from any coupe/sedan/compact/touring/vert but as mine has prefacelift grills I need the nose panel from a prefacelift in order to fit the existing kidney grills back on. in other words, prefacelift grills wont fit on a nose panel that has originally had the facelift grills. correct? also, the guard will fit from a coupe or vert but not from the other body types. Thanks guys! Edit: oh also, mine has the wider motorsport plastic trim on the guard, can i use a non msport trim'ed guard and fit the plastic right on?
  12. im quite new to the whole suspension upgrade thing as ive never done it on my previous cars. i am going to take my time and do it right with this car so all info is appreciated. the thing i need is just the long black rubber that seals the windscreen in. i dont even know if its a proper bmw part or just some random bit. (not the windshield cowl, although i may need that too as mines very faded)
  13. you pay for what you get i reckon for something like this. few options for cheap include finding an indy place, finding an individual to do it at home, or doing it your self with colour matched spray cans + sanding + clearcoat.
  14. ^ i will take it! how much moneys do u want dave?

    1990 325i SE

    just wondering what the white cable is doing coming from the boot?
  16. its around downtown auckland close to where the bars are. quite a dodgy place actually but you wouldnt think it would happen to you.. bad luck adeeb.. you could try source a secondhand glass and get brent's guy to fit it for you. save some costs
  17. Thanks Dave! All i gotta do interior wise now is clean the floormats or replace with new ones, retrim the parcel tray and i want to update the gearknob to the round one. Havent been able to find one though. Im contemplating whether or not I want to upgrade the front seats to the E46 ones. Its hard to find a matching colour though so it will be something ill consider if opportunity comes up. oh and the center arm rest thats a must.
  18. Pulled the seat out and opened up the little gearbox. One of the plastic cogs had a crack in it so wouldnt turn the main gear. There were two sets of these in the gearbox so i switched it over. Now i regained the tilting movement and moving front and back works too. Lost the ability to move rhe seat up and down but no biggie. Also some pics of the retrimmed headliner and properly attached door cards Yay!
  19. it doesnt move at all even if u push up on it. the motor is running but just tilt the seat forward
  20. so ive replaced the headliner with new fabric, refitted the doorcards and glued in the inserts. looking much better now. one problem, i tilted the seat recline all the way back to clean it up in all the nooks and crannys and now the seat wont tilt back forward. oh no.. any ideas how to fix this? quick google search says that i may have broken a little white gear that needs replacing sigh. what a pain! (its an automatic seat not the manual ones)
  21. the ride height is perfect now!
  22. I decided to give them a pass and save up for some new tyres do not worry 3pedals
  23. ticks all the right boxes and great price too. doesnt use any oil? really? e39 m5...
