My '85 318i coupe

Recommended Posts

Bought yesterday from a guy who bought it for his girlfriend (she hated it)

So he lowered it, adding tints as he went. 15" basketweaves. Doing a full metalic respray too. She still didnt want any part with it.

And so, it falls into my eager hands. :)

Didn't take any photos but the interior is spotless. I'm in love.

She sounds ungrateful.

Her loss is your gain, that car looks hot.

Nice one. Is it manual?

Sure is, Oh and it was "ringing it's nuts off at 100" so a e36 TI diff was put on.

I think the way I'm going to go is Black out all amber lights (indicators) But ofcourse keep spares too change it back.

double check the handbrake actually works this time :D

<_< You Know it. I spend 30 seconds every time when i'm getting out, making sure its in gear, handbrake holding, then "shake around a little" making sure it wont move.

+ 1 for orange indicators, old school cool.

Doesn't need a lot, just a bit of a 30mm drop maybe and a nice rear box for the exhaust and your sorted. Well done.

It sure did! That was my run around for the past 5 months. Its up for sale now.

Cheers guys, I will definitely reblack the bumper covers, A bit scared to attempt the b pillars, Most likely get them professionally done in the future.

Is it possible to fit a euro filler to a pre facelift? Or something to cover the evidence of a personalised plate seen

Here:

Guy took the plate off with a screw driver supposedly -_- ...

^ You can get PFL plate fillers, they are very rare though, don't know if I have ever seen any on cars in NZ, try german ebay etc. Or, alternatively, buy one of those bimmersport euro plate surrounds (see poll thread) and that should cover it.

Love the car, also love the shape of those Mtech2 wings, the one thing that is getting to me is the rear proportions due to the lack of rear valance, not to difficult to fix.

Other than that, its a stunner

Tech 2 wing makes it look like a WWI biplane.

Swap that bad boy for a small rubber boot spoiler, sell Tech II and profit!

Also don't like the painted b-pillars and door handles, but otherwise the colour looks great, I say keep it as stock as possible.

Keen to swap mtech spoiler for a rubber one plus what ever cash you consider fair. I will create a for sale thread when i get home. Rear valance options? I know the facelifts look great with thier valance. Cheers again guys.

Don't rip yourself off, just pick up a rubber spoiler for pennies from pick a fart then sell the mt2 wing for max profit.

Good idea, but I imagine no one on here would plan on ripping others off. OH! still have your lip mate :).
