sam726 29 Report post Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Hi Everyone! Just realised that since buying the beast i haven't really posted any pics or information about my 1990 BMW 535IS. So here it is! All relatively stock, my idea is to slowly bring it back to a bit of its former glory, pics don't look too bad but in reality the body has definitely seen better days and the interior is doing the whole BMW unglueing etc... Let me know what everyone thinks and also whether anyone might happen to know the history of my particular model? Its in Auckland now but I collected it from Christchurch. Oh the list of things to do include the roof lining, door cards, drivers seat (small tear), have some simple personalised plates to attach already, looking at getting a few extras such as HIDS, have a carfolie voucher still to use. The toolkit needs some tools too haha. Long term if i decide to keep it and go the extra mile ill be wanting to get the suspension redone as its a bit saggy and loose and if i could have it my way i'd love a respray. (but probably not likely any time soon). And also a nice exhaust tip would be good. Edited April 2, 2012 by Sam G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael. 2313 Report post Posted April 2, 2012 I've seen you driving around town, looks really good! A decent 535i is a rare car! A far cry better than my 535i e34 (which is unfortunately being parted out now) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
