SteelBlue

H&R sport springs installed. I think the car rides very similar to stock, very happy with the way it came out.
Window tint is up next.

I was told it looks cool

I work with the track, so I am there quite frequently for all of the main events through out the year. Always looking for other people to walk around the track and drink with. If you're going to any events, reach out to me and let me know, would love to put a couple names to some faces.
If you aren't going, I am inviting you to do so. You're on this forum because you like cars, come watch the best cars at the best track in the best country. Believe me, folks.
But for real, Vintage and Indy Car are the big ones. Let me know.

The shipping for this lip was gonna be like $70 if I wanted to return so I figured I would just keep it and try to make it work. Started out by painting it. Got one can of the correct paint from the automotive paint store which ended up being the perfect amount to do this lip. Bought a kerosene heater just so I could take advantage of painting on my day off. I think it came out really well, you can really see the flake in the Black Sapphire Metallic. Just need to work on mounting it, don't know if I'll be doing that anytime soon considering its still December outside and these past 4 months have been a simulation.
Not bad for a $30 rattle can job.

For whatever reason the retention isn’t great for new members - Basically the ones that end up staying are pretty good folks

Don’t fuck this up!

I saw one of these yesterday. I need one. That engine plus chassis/body in an incredible combination. 
Aiming for 2-3 years from now.
Congrats on the pick up again.

Well there is a BMW corral on the bottom of the main straight hill on the outside of turn 14. I've seen some pretty good stuff there over the years. If people are looking to get a little bit of a tour of the track I'd love to show people around. I put together a large Road America guide on the Indy Car subreddit that I can try to find and post here for those who have not been.
After work I'll post up the schedule for the main events that people might be interested in.

So sounds like a good amount of people will be at the hawk, we will need to meet up 

Thanks again @MPW3RLee for spring install! Nice to see you’ve made it the forum.

Well, stumbled across this page thanks to [mention=3693]SteelBlue[/mention] and [mention=2832]suspenceful[/mention], and quite honestly don’t know how I haven’t found it sooner! Currently have a 2009 M3 family hauler/grocery getter/autoX machine and 2017 i3 with range extender (weird car, right?) Been wrenching on BMW’s for 9 years now in a couple different dealerships between AL and WI. Grew up here in the 920 and hope to stick around for a while! A couple people on here may know me if I’ve worked on your cars, and if I haven’t then maybe some day! Hope to see some of you fellow BMW drivers on the road!
 
Here’s a couple pics of some of my current and previous BMWs

Hey it was me 👋

Yea, probably on the hillside turn 8 area.

I've got 3 trackside campsites inside the carousel for the Hawk vintage weekend. I know of at least a handful of bmw friends that will be camping or hanging out there.

Saw a dark blue or maybe black E90 M3 at the Nike outlet in Oshkosh yesterday. Brewers license plates: MPW3R. Style 219 wheels. SCCA sticker on passenger left rear window. 
Looked amazing. Who are you?

Im still hoping to organize an August/Sept. WIBIMMERS meet and drive that goes to Road America and either tours the facilities a bit or just get to hang out within the premises at the end of the drive. If you have any dates/info/tips/ideas please chime in!

I will be at the Hawk vintage weekend.  Probably getting there Thursday night and staying through Sunday.

on a long enough timeline we all become a shell of our former selves 

i much prefer the cold tile floor pics.
but your point stands.
 

September - die inside
October - die inside
November - die inside
December - die inside

I had the chance to chat with Glen (rekpoint) tonight and subject him to my waterboarding and interrogation tactics.
Even though he is a bit farther away from the Madison/Milwaukee/Appleton action, we are glad to have him here and see how things unfold with his gorgeous blue E36
 
 
Snap: Thanks for being willing to answer some questions.
You are in High School, correct?
Rekpoint: No problem Snap! Correct, I am still in Highschool.
 
S: What do people at school think about your BMW?
R: Well, you kinda got a few groups of people. Some people think it's a cool classic & all the others think it's like any old BMW. I also get asked if I do plenty of drifts in it.
 
S:Any other bimmers at school?
R: Well other than my twin brother driving my dad's x3 or TI there is an occasional E46
 
S: Twin brother!? Why isnt he on WIBIMMERS??
R: Because he is a Miata driver. [emoji22]
 
S: Do you guys argue about who has the better car?
R: Occasionally, but at the same time we argue about everything.
 
S: It sounds like, besides your twin, you come from a family of Ultimate Driving Enthusiasts. What kind of cars have been in the family?
R: Only noting the cool cars here Currently we have : 1997 318ti, 2001 330ci, 2006 x3 6speed, 2018 Mini Countryman S and my 1999 323is
 
S: Does your twin brother vape?
R: I hope not lol
 
S: What is your dream BMW?
R: Honestly I have 2. I want a 1999 E36 M3 Either in Alpine White II or Cosmos Black w/ Modena Vader's or a 2011 e92 M3. As for the e92 it would need to be the Lime Rock Park edition.
 
S: I like that orange
R: I'm a big fan of [emoji521]
 
S: Any plans for autocross, track days, ice racing, car shows, or big road trips with the E36 this year?
R: Absolutely! I really want to do autocross but I feel I should do the right thing and wait till I do the standard e36 reinforcements. I also plan on coming to a few wibimmers meets even though it's a decent drive.
 
S: Have you met Earl?
R: Nope I haven't. I met one of his buddy's taking pics of my E36 on the street.
 
S: What is the worst thing about WIBIMMERS?
R: Tbh the worst thing about wibimmers is that you guys are so juvenile. It's like every other BMW board on the internet. What a waste of time.
 
(Reference: [emoji23])

 
But for real. It's just a chill place to hang and learn some things.
 
S: I hate that too.
Do you think you could hang with Spence's 135 after your exhaust install?
R: Lol that thing is going to be an animal. Hands down I'll beat him [emoji23]
 
S: Describe yourself in 5 words
R: I am a nice guy
 
S: Describe your car in 5 words
R: It wants to be fast
 
S: What are your thoughts on boost?
R: I personally like it. A boosted E36 m3 would be sick.
 
S: Thanks for letting me interrogate you. Any final thoughts/comments or things you would want people to know?
R: No Problem! If anyone is interested, follow my Snapchat : Rekpoint for cool car related snaps and my Instagram Glen_Jakober for my seldom posts!
 
 
 
 

That was at the picnic I was last at, gorgeous car. Didn't know he lived around here. 
I cringed at the E34 part as well lol.
