I came across a fun decision Volkswagen made when they did the front subframes on mk4's. The front control arm bolt threads into a captive nut. This captive nut is not friction welded or spot welded to the subframe. They used an adhesive to adhere it. I was one of the no so lucky many who happened to break a captive nut free when removing one of the control arms. Time to open a hole in the subframe and tack the bugger back in place haha. Luckily the other side stayed put=)

You've never owned an e36 in the winter have you? These fog lights are little disasters waiting to happen. BMW only used the most brittle of lenses and theres not an aftermarket out there any stronger. It's not will they break but when.

E36s are just parts cars for e30s

E30's are so great that everyone feels the need to rebuild them using the superior parts from the E36?
