Nice pick up, TJ 

another E30 to the stable.

Today was a great day to get out for a little back roads drive! Since picking the car up, I've swapped wheels/tires, stock headlights, added wheel spacers, Gruppe M carbon airbox, bimmerworld intake elbow to delete ASC, AC Schnitzer leather steering wheel, and installed a BMW motorsports golf ball weighted knob.

Cant wait until you get the wheels on!

Thanks! I actually held off on driving the car until I had the stock lights in. I hated the aftermarket ones that much haha.

Started working on a set of wheels that I've had laying around for a little over a year. Had some custom Radinox lips made by Felgenfuchs in Germany. The wheels are 18" AC Schnitzer Type 2 Racing, made by Ronal. I had to buy an entire e36 M3 to get them.... Thankfully, everything came apart without breaking any of the unobtainable titanium hardware. I need to have a friend machine the faces before powder coating. Can't wait to get these together!

Oh hell yeah!

Perfect!

Going to look so sweet!

Making progress tonight. Rears needed a little clearancing at a 4 degree angle to fit inside the new lips. A friend that dabbles in machining got me set up and was able to try my hand at it. Brand new center caps should be here tomorrow. Then, off for coating.

Nice progress, TJ! Can’t wait to see this on the new wheels this summer.

Hoping to have them buttoned up and on the car in the next couple weeks!

This is going to look SO good, I can't wait. Must've been a bit scary milling on those centers!

Perfect!

Best part was showing up to his place, beating on the m3 and then leaving with the engine all in the same morning

[YoungCR]

Just causally jumps into machining his own wheels Gonna be even more rewarding to look at once done.

Setback after setback....this is the final result! 295 rear tires and 245 fronts, fitment is great but I plan to lower it just a bit more.

[P_Roloff]

Oh my goodness, that’s incredible looking. The style fits it so well, I’m really excited to see it in person eventually! Glad you were able to get them all figured out!

[Rekpoint]

Turned out fantastic. All it took was me begging you to buy that full M3 for the wheels

[wasnt m3]

KW coilovers, Ground Control camber/caster plates, lower control arms,  TC Kline rear shock mounts, sway bar links and bushings all installed the past week or two. Had some time to do a paint correction yesterday as well as install a paint matched rear wiper delete. Getting closer to being satisfied...for now.
