Earl Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) Installed the rear coils and discovered that my stock springs had the bottom coil snapped off, the struts were absolutely blown, and I am in dire need of subframe bushings, aswell as rear strut mounts Edited October 4, 2011 by Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rampelsauce Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Sold it Bought it. I did a car swap today. Sold the iX, bought Ryan's 325i. Its sex. Probably needs a new guibo and CSB, but other than that, its the best E30 I've ever owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunMetalGrey Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Heating elements for seats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Block heater? I dyed my trim black, aswell as the grey plastic bottom of my bumper black(obd1 e36) I also had a chance to do some mad polishing of my headlights, signals, and tails. Downside is now it seems that every piece if dust wants ti attract to them:'( how do I prevent that?

e92boost Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Heating elements for seats? Close!! It's a seat occupancy sensor.. It was such a bitch to install inside the seat. I would never tackle this job again ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 (edited) Took a few pics, replaced my rear strut mounts with e46 vert mounts, and removed the springs pads and spring adjusters in the rear after I took pics. It doesn't look low but she is only about 3" from the ground to the bumper. Edited October 6, 2011 by Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasnt m3 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Just finished test fitting my freshly refinished style 5's on the m3, gonna need a serious roll in the rear. I'll post pics tomorrow when its not dark out. Anyone have access to a fender roller? Baseball bat method isn't working at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunMetalGrey Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Skateboard wheel between the tire and fender, if you are desperate. Jack the car up a tad with the jack parallel to the car and pick it up a bit, put the skateboard wheel between the fender and tire, lower slowly so you see the wheel start to push the fender out, heat the metal, push the car forward and back, lower car a tad more and repeat. Or do it the proper way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e92boost Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I did oil change and brake pads. Next is spark plugs. Look at the filter!! Any of you guys agree with me on my guess... BMW doesn't change filters. They recommended me 15k per oil change!! I just did it 4k after last dealer free lol oil change. Looks like they left the old filter or used tar instead of oil.. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Looks good to me!! Why thank you kind sir=) Sits almost exactly how I want at the moment now that I got the rear levelled out. Should look pretty tits with the DS1's and some spacers to eliminate some of that sunken look=P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
