qube 3568 Report post Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) just got the E34! a bit rough around the edges but overall in goodshape, body is good paint job is good, interior needs some attention, runs well and will be my weekend drive/project car. here are some quick pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- update! blacked out the grilles (painted them originally but broke the clips so bought some matte black ones, bmw badges using black vinyl cut out into pizza slices, 330i badge using plastidip, side indicators tinted using VHT niteshade tint spray and rear taillights using the same tint spray for the white parts installed the angel eyes, turned out they werent the right fit but made it work i think it looks okay, might have to pick up some proper fitting ones later but these only cost me $40 so im not complaining! *something else i did was instead of buying the euro spec plate holders and having gaps on the sides, i took off the plates and cut off the bottom 1/3 of the jap spec plate holder plastic bit. then drilled new holes on the plates and screwed it on a bit higher, i think it looks cleaner this way and its not difficult, doesnt cost anything really need to get some tints to get past this hot summer! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- after selling my e36 msport coupe and then buying a daily driver (318ti now for sale LINK HERE) I picked up this 330i sedan.. was originally looking for a coupe for months but decided to go with the sedan and have absolutely no regrets about it! here are some photos from a weekend trip to the mount Edited February 5, 2013 by QUBE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CSET 564 Report post Posted December 11, 2012 Nice, facelift too! Any more pics? What colour is the interior? A family member had a fl 320i in light blue that had white leather - I was quite partial to that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3568 Report post Posted December 11, 2012 It's just normal black interior with carbon trim and suede fabric seats. Nothing special i will post some proper photos soon. Have a few things I want to do on the car aesthetically as soon as I get the engine oil and transmission fluid done. Seems to be in very good condition. One owner since imported 6 years ago. Just under 130kms, did a trip from Auckland to the mount and was a great ride no issues. Yay! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3568 Report post Posted December 11, 2012 Got 600km to a tank on a trip to the mount including city driving. But usually around 500kms to a tank that costs $130 to fill. It's not bad for a 3L Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2122 Report post Posted January 9, 2013 looks really good! however, i dont like the blacked out roundels and feel the need to tell you so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2312 Report post Posted January 9, 2013 i dont like the blacked out roundels and feel the need to tell you so. Agreed. To be honest I thought it looked nicer in stock guise, I don't see the blacked out features as improvements. Of course it's your car and your right to do what you like with it but I am just saying.

Black dished out kick's with a massive polished lip with a good stance would look the part Edited January 10, 2013 by skotty Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3568 Report post Posted January 11, 2013 I really do like how dished mags look but I don't want a polished dish lip. And decent dish mags are hard to come by... Bbs LMs were my first choice but can't afford, I want m parallels but hard to find and needs work to fit. I will see how things go in the future not too fussed with current wheels. Seems okay for now especially since its on Bridgestone potenza RE050A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CSET 564 Report post Posted January 11, 2013 Looked a lot nicer stock imo... The tinted lights and roundels cheapen it considerably. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3568 Report post Posted January 14, 2013 Tints are booked in. I didn't like the rims either but they are okay. I want to size down to some 18s. Thinking of some BBS RC concave mags. Hmmmmm.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
