Hi from the UK!
 
Hi Guys and Gals

Well, Im 21 had my Diamond Black E36 320i for about 2 years now and the saying is true...it's the ultimate driving machine :D. I love it and I don't think I'll ever change from the blue and white emblem. Only thing I've ever had to replace is a thermostat and water pump when she started to overheat.

Shes 100% stock atm but I've decided it's time to treat the poor girl. Thanks to a dodgy MOT station about a year ago the hood/windscreen ended up getting wrecked and I got a second hand purple one just to get me through since I was short on cash and that's all I could find at the time.

I found this site while looking for mods etc. and decided it would be a great place to get advice and give my own if anyone needs it. And of course...chat about our beloved Bavarians!

I will grab some pics and stick em up but she's not much to look at atm :(. But since I'm gonna be cleaning her up I'll be updating em :D. It'll be cool for comparing before and after.

Well, I think thats enough spamming for now lol and I hope to c'yall soon!

Stiff.

Heya all.

Just thought I'd say thanks for all the warm welcomes, makes me feel right at home :). I thought I'd give you a small update on whats going on with my baby :D.

I was browsing around the net looking for some subtle body styling mods for the car and couldn't decide on anything I liked. So I went down to my local mod shop yesterday looking for that special something.

That's when I saw my new trunk spoiler. Cost me £115 with brake light and pre-primed. I wasn't too fussed about the price being a little high (for what it is) as in my opinion, it is MUCH better looking than anything else I could find. I also saw some nice looking M3 look mirrors so I decided to pick em up aswell. The mirrors do look very cheap but I thought I'd give em a go (If they look crap, I'll get rid of em).

So I spent a couple of hours sanding a few bumps and scratches out of the spoiler and gave it a good clean up. Starting priming it again and ran out of primer...NOOOO! lol. That was about 10pm yesterday so I couldn't go and get some more.

Now Today's plan is to grab that primer and get the spraying and laquering done. And maybe fit those mirrors if I get the time.

I am taking pics don't worry but I'm having to use my girlfriends crappy quality camera phone since I've lost my proper camera :(.

Oh yeah, do you guys/gals have any advice on small mods for an E36 Sedan? I'm not very imaginative and need some inspiration lol.

Well, guess I better go get that primer!!

Don't worry! Pics come soon :D:D:D

Cya'll and keep in touch

Stiff
