I've been wanting to get an E36 again and you're not helping.

Do it, before they go way up in price. Theyâre truly great cars.

ââTwas a hot azz/humid day in the garage. Spent the day finishing these custom panels Iâve slowly been making since the fall. I havenât touched them in a month or so but decided to try and get them finished. The hardest part of this whole thing was figuring out how to correctly position the door handles/speaker holes, and the pull strap. I used OEM Porsche pull straps for a very nice clean look and decided unlike all the other panels on the market to lower it. I wanted to inner door to show the purple on top like the Lotus Exige. I felt this looks a lot cleaner for some reason. I wrapped the one in alcantara suede but ran out of material for the next one and probably will finish tomorrow. Overall very happy with how these ended up turning out. The interior is getting closer and closer everyday. I also ordered a new cup holder idea from BMW Milwaukee North today. Plan to use some Z3 trays. Will update once they come in early next week.Â
Â(I donât have the door handle in yet or the lower speaker. Iâm waiting on a new chrome lux package handle as I broke mine somehow. (The lux are chrome. Should match the stainless hardware I mounted the panels with nicely))Â

Thanks! Still has so far to go but I think itâs off to a great start. Very happy with it

Been driving the car a ton. Just took it to Barrington cars and coffee Sunday and it was a great time apart from the 94 degree weather.

Always weird seeing local cars on Instagram pages I follow. Just saw your's on the Ultimate Klasse page.
Bring this thing to Throttle Stop Cars and Coffee tomorrow.
Sorry, havenât been on in a while. Been busy driving the car everywhere! Absolutely loving every second of it too. Besides breaking a diff bolt, the car has been solid. Hereâs a photo dump from the past weekÂ

Update! I have now put on over 4000 miles this summer so far, and I LOVE it. Every single shift in this car feels and sounds so good. Thinking about doing a track day on the 15th, we shall see. Â

What track?

Bought another BMW last week, plan to keep this one pretty stock and just daily and enjoy. Say hello to my 2005 330i ZHP! There were only 36 made in Alpine/black leather/6speed! This car is truly incredible. I think the ZHP might be one of the best all around dailyâs bmw ever made? I love it. I picked it all the way up in Atlanta and took a proper detour to the tail of the dragon for a break in. It needs some small stuff here and there cosmetically, but the chassis and drive terrain are in fantastic shape!Â
Âalready polished the headlights, PPFâd the black pillars, and new knob. (Ignore the giant bug under the kidneys lol)
-
PPF - paint protection film aka clear bra. Protects the paint and is way more durable than clearcoat so it is much harder to scratch. Also has a built in ceramic coating.Â
Âforgot to take an after pic, so went outside quick to take one. Theyâre dusty right now. But not a scratch on them, and no longer faded!

Took the M3 to Neenah for Udderly Euro this last weekend and had a great time! Ended up taking home Top 20 as well! Lots of really cool builds and some neat BMW's. Highly recommend going next year!Â

Car looks great
