I saw this car at the e30 picnic, it was easily one of my favorites! Can't wait to see what the future brings for it.

As far as? For polishers I have both rules and flex, and for polishes I have unlimited options. Usually like to go with Oberk and menzerna.

Anyone looking to get their old BMW's or new BMW's back to showroom quality, hit me up! I would love to help you out. Ive worked on correcting anything from Private jets to e30's to Mclaren P1'S. I am located just outside of Milwaukee. You can either leave your car with me, or I can travel to you if you have a workable space! 414-861-8801, shoot me a text with any questions! I have hundreds of photos and videos of cars I have done, and am comfortable working on anything.

PPF - paint protection film aka clear bra. Protects the paint and is way more durable than clearcoat so it is much harder to scratch. Also has a built in ceramic coating.
forgot to take an after pic, so went outside quick to take one. They’re dusty right now. But not a scratch on them, and no longer faded!

Bought another BMW last week, plan to keep this one pretty stock and just daily and enjoy. Say hello to my 2005 330i ZHP! There were only 36 made in Alpine/black leather/6speed! This car is truly incredible. I think the ZHP might be one of the best all around daily’s bmw ever made? I love it. I picked it all the way up in Atlanta and took a proper detour to the tail of the dragon for a break in. It needs some small stuff here and there cosmetically, but the chassis and drive terrain are in fantastic shape!
already polished the headlights, PPF’d the black pillars, and new knob. (Ignore the giant bug under the kidneys lol)

Thinking of selling my 1993 318i. This car was originally owned in Germany by a marine from 1993-2001. The car was in 2001 brought back to America in New Mexico. It was then brought to Wisconsin by the same guy and parked immediately in 01’ till I bought it last winter. The car was parked due to a tree falling on the front end. So the hood was replaced along with the nose panel and fender. The car is a CLEAN title car.
Pros-
127,XXX miles on a 1993
Super rare mairne blue interior in very nice shape.Super rare style 26 wheels - you can barely find pictures of these wheels on the internet.
Less common maritiusblau metallic paint.
The car is a BMW individual
The quarters and body of this car are 100% rust free. (Besides the front fender, there are tint bubbles, and the nose panel has some small bubbling in spots, but easily replaceable)
The underbody is in amazing shape, almost no rust at all
mtech 2 wing
Cons-
The car needs AC
The sunroof assembly needs to be fixed, it’s off track
Needs tires
Headliner sagging
Drivers corner light socket wiring tore - Would include the new socket.
If you’re looking for an old bmw to clean up, this car has potential to be a really cool, and really clean car. It just needs some TLC, and I don’t have the time to give it what it needs. I’m asking $4000, which I think is a very fair price. CD43 radio is not included, will come with a fitting 90’s pioneer. I’ve driven this car from Milwaukee to Connecticut and back and i would trust it going anywhere. -

Sigh.
Guess I’m not going to the brew city cruise night. I was around 5 minutes away, coming down the off ramp when this happened, pedal went to the floor but I was able to pump it up enough to stop. Looks like both caliper bolts came out somehow, mangling the brake shield and shearing the soft line. Got REALLY lucky with this one. Could’ve been a lot worse.
Saw @Partiallypurple drive by, car looks great man! That whole group looked awesome for that matter.
Thanks man, I was going to stop, but I was leading everyone to the event, and none of them knew where to go. Glad you were able to stop safely still, and glad it should be an easy fix!

Always weird seeing local cars on Instagram pages I follow. Just saw your's on the Ultimate Klasse page.
Bring this thing to Throttle Stop Cars and Coffee tomorrow.
Sorry, haven’t been on in a while. Been busy driving the car everywhere! Absolutely loving every second of it too. Besides breaking a diff bolt, the car has been solid. Here’s a photo dump from the past week

Been driving the car a ton. Just took it to Barrington cars and coffee Sunday and it was a great time apart from the 94 degree weather.

‘‘Twas a hot azz/humid day in the garage. Spent the day finishing these custom panels I’ve slowly been making since the fall. I haven’t touched them in a month or so but decided to try and get them finished. The hardest part of this whole thing was figuring out how to correctly position the door handles/speaker holes, and the pull strap. I used OEM Porsche pull straps for a very nice clean look and decided unlike all the other panels on the market to lower it. I wanted to inner door to show the purple on top like the Lotus Exige. I felt this looks a lot cleaner for some reason. I wrapped the one in alcantara suede but ran out of material for the next one and probably will finish tomorrow. Overall very happy with how these ended up turning out. The interior is getting closer and closer everyday. I also ordered a new cup holder idea from BMW Milwaukee North today. Plan to use some Z3 trays. Will update once they come in early next week.
(I don’t have the door handle in yet or the lower speaker. I’m waiting on a new chrome lux package handle as I broke mine somehow. (The lux are chrome. Should match the stainless hardware I mounted the panels with nicely))

I've been wanting to get an E36 again and you're not helping.
Do it, before they go way up in price. They’re truly great cars.

Towed the car in the rain out to Lake Country Alignment in Dousman today, got her nice and ready to roll. Used an open car trailer and it was raining anyways so I decided to drive the car back for the hour ride. the car handles a million times better now being properly aligned and with the bigger/better tires and bushings! the car didn't rub once. the drive couldn't have gone any better if it weren't for the rain. Going to try and cruise out to the e30 meet Sunday if it doesn't rain and if I get a couple more things done before then. Finally after a year the car is getting close to where I want it!

Random photo dump warning. I've been messing around with the Sony mirrorless a lot cruising around in the M3. Here are some photos i've gotten recently.
