dvsdvsdvs 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2008 Hey whats up I thought I'd say hi, might have to get some advice some day! I've got a BMW E36 1994, i picked it up off my friends parents for $2300 with new wof/rego and it's been a breeze to drive & keep maintained i thought it was a steal!!! only problems I've run into since having it was the sagging roof & brake light failure I stripped out the lining & scrubbed off the foam, i replaced it with some fabric from spotlights & did a home job *pictures* I picked up a brake switch for $20 off trademe & that fixed the brake lights *thanks to google & this diy site http://www.bimmerdiy.com/dir/e36 * Looking at getting some rims as mine are pretty rough around the edges & some tints to help protect interior. Other than that i think i'll put my money towards saving for a new bmw in the future! haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazyarab 6 Report post Posted September 14, 2008 Daviss!! Shot on getting a bimmer man, i'm sure it will be plenty of stress free enjoyable motoring. And yeh, boys on these forums are awesome. Always happy to help as long as you are not asking how to install a T spoiler or some sh*t lol. Put it this way, not quite as much flame here as CSNZ .
