No sunroof??? Woah, I thought all bmw's had sunroof's...

Nice car man, yeah, definitely get the clear corner lights, same with the rear, I had mine done, huge difference, love the CCFL's though, I've been meaning to get myself some...

Any performance mods planned???

Dazza-mate, Im pretty sure the location plays a large factor in determining the need for a sunroof :P Obvisously never been to Russia Im guessing...

Yes, i agree mine is from Italy but no sunroof anyway.

Lol, haven't been to russia lately :P

But I guess no sunroof would make it much lighter, that thing weighs a tonne, I've considered removing mine and plugging the hole, I never really use it

I thought the same. Most BMW's have sunroofs. The only one's I have seen with out were the real early models.

No, but a electric cooling fan the size of MIR.....

Ive got an e30 318i and I love it cause its fucking light 1080kg, however Ive removed the A/C system which saved about 15kg, also removed all the boot lining, and installed Aftermarket Autotecnica SSP24 seats, which weight about 1/3 the weight of the standard seats, so Im flying XD

Here´s a few pics of my beauty as she stands now.

My modded front test mounted:

How bout a Hartge lip on this?!

A closeup on the mod:

And a finishing pic showing the huge electric fan in the front, you could almost mistake her for a Focke Wolf 190

BobbyE36 · #12 (**permalink**) 04-27-2009, 02:36 PM

focke wolf 190... not spitfire, german machine and bmw engine

What are you doing with the front? are you going to paint it yourself? i just got an M3 front.

I've got the same wheels

Blau320i · #14 (**permalink**) 05-01-2009, 02:31 PM

Nice!

On monday i´ll deliver my front to the paintingworkshop, i hope they´ll do a great job!

This weekend i have fixed a little with my brakes. they looked like rubbish, all rusty and dirty. So i used elektrolysis to remove the rust and then i painted the holder fot the caliper silver.

The result came out kinda nice i think:

(I´m going to paint the caliper later on, i just did´nt have the time now
