Power : 170bhp (approx) added M50 Manifold so possibly 190bhp

That is a really good looking car, I love that colour :thumbsup:, not sure about car prices in the UK but that seem like a bargain.

And welcome to the forum :wave:

Thanks guys for the comments, yes the body kit is ac schnitzer kit, the front bottom lip i cut off an accident damaged acs front bumper the whole bumper wasnt salvagable it was too badly damaged so i just chopped the bottom off and attached it to the original bumper.

and also on the back bumper there are splodges of sealant the bumper came away so need to get that cleaned off just so damn cold here.

and yes the prices of e36 here are very cheap i know that over there they seem to be very expensive but here a 328 will cost you anywhere betweem £700-2000 and an m3 you can buy for £3,000 - £5,000.

Also did a central locking switch.


Moved my alarm led into the cluster as its more visible.


Wired my angel eyes so they come on when the door is opened and go off when the door or alarm is activated.

Thanks all, i've come across a 328 breaker in the same colour so i just had to have the boot as its despoilered and rust free i always felt coupes look better without the spoiler.

New updates.

Majority of you may not agree with my ideas, I decided to tint the whole of the rear lights i think they look a lot better and suit the silver.

Also tinted the headlights with a little satin black and 3 coats of laquer very important that you do this lightly.

Just a quick feature that has started working after fixing the alarm.

When you unlock with the fob or open the door the clocks light up.



a few shots of the tinted front i went a little darker on the indicators.
