Pulled the biggest noob move today and didn't latch the hood all the way.

dont be like me, anybody have a hood for a e36? Color doesn't matter this car is also for sale now.

Man that's a bummer, at least your windshield is fine!

@wasnt m3 do you still have the hood from the sedan you're parting?

It has a crack in it but not the full on windshield smash, my impromptu wiper install that is not clocked properly saved it.

I helped him take the hood off so I should get a discount or something. If I recall it had an issue but, the car is a dumpster fire at this point.

Hood was sold the day he helped me pull it off, unfortunately.

If you want to attempt to pull the windshield from my car you can just have it for free.

Did someone say free!?!

Idk if it's worth the hassle. Hate to get it most of the way out then brake it.

I hear you. I need to pull the glass eventually before I start to cut this heap up.

Do I hear a windshield for Dinan badge trade going on here?

Probably not. I might have a less traditional way to remove it, likely just cut the whole windshield frame from the car haha.

After about 1000 miles this year I had my first mechanical issue. 

Had it cranked up to 16 psi due to unfriendly boost air. I did a 1st gear launch and heard a little pop and saw black pieces skipping down the road behind me.  

Radiator is ok one decent dent but no drips, will confirm tomorrow.

It appears that the engine torqued too much and caught the shroud and blew up, not the classic fan explosion.

time to install the electric fan I bought over a year ago

Time to look into higher density motor mounts!
