How’s the Dinan BBK vs a Wilwood, StopTech, Brembo?
Dinan BBK is just a rebranded brembo. So same in that aspect. I prefer brembo over stop tech, stop tech replacement are cheaper tho which is a huge plus. Willwood I don’t know, It’s a option I don’t consider on my cars.
Looking for a NICE (no reps no junk) set of wheels in e36 fitment. Tires a plus. Got cash ready, what ya guys got!

Hey guys! Haven’t been on here in a while! Thought I’d share my current junker....
2005 M3, ast coilovers/ fully modded suspension, Dinan bbk, HRE r43s, Lang racing stroker build (Being rebuilt currently) , Dinan throttle bodies, 4.10 gears, oem CSL bits, carbon roof, sparco carbon spx, carbon airbox, KMP steering wheel, cage soon, so so so much more to list. Will update with more soon! Should be a monster on the track. Hope you guys are doing well.
Didn't want to say anything, but yeah, hood and bumper appear to be a different color than the rest of the car in every picture.
Yah idk what to tell you guys, it appears so on the pictures in the park but the car is all one solid color.. Gotta stop using the HDR feature on my iPhone lol
Is it just the lighting or is the hood a slightly different silver? It seems to have more of a tan hue to it.
Just noticed your sig has Ben H. Which is also how I would shorten my last name. Weird....
It’s the lighting from the sunset behind the trees. Car was recently polished so its like a mirror up close in certain angles. See how it looks in different lighting the hoods silver and the sides have a tan hue lol.
This thing looks great.
Thanks!!! Took a little work to get it how I want it but it was well worth it.
Absolutely gorgeous, man!
Thanks bro!
Here’s an update with the car. She’s coming along beautiful, wheels refinished and a nice detail and she’s done.
That was quick:

My brother posted it up... doesn’t know much about the car and posted some terrible pictures. Told him if he’d sell it I’d give a finders fee lol. I’m going to repost it on bring a trailer soon with the proper info. If I get a high price I’ll sell, if It doesn’t I’ll keep it not in the rush.
I don’t recommend them to be honest. The wheels came out excellent but the first time was TERRIBLE clear drips everywhere. Made them come back and I supervised like a hawk lol. I’m happy now though.
@e92boost is leaving us hangin'
Finally got some pictures!
I would say yes, but it would take some modification. Here is a e24 trim ring over my e30 lights. They are the same diameter, but the spacing between the lights isn't the same. *note the light holes seem larger in the e24 grills because of the chrome trim rings.
Thanks for the photos, now sell me your headlights.
Do you know if the e30 lights fit the e24? I want to get some new headlights. Maybe euro ellipsoid's
I just used buffing compound. If its really bad, you will need to sand through the anodizing and polish them. Its an extremely long and time consuming process.
More progress. I pulled the valve cover off to replace the gasket, paint the cover, paint the air box and AFS, replace the breather hose, and do the oil tube update @YoungCRmentioned earlier.
I used the Evapor-rust to clean the clips and bolts holding stuff together while I strip and paint stuff and bake it on the oven with VHT.
Before the modified oil squirter looked like this( when I finally got it out)
And after I compressed the center. This is a common fix to help add oil pressure to lubricate the front rocker arms during low RPM driving.
I want to do this mod to mine!
Let me know how it goes. I have rash on some of my wheels that I would like fixed. Before/after photos would be much appreciated!
I would like to know as well. I made an appointment with the guy in Madison and he cancelled on me. After that I figured it was a joke and waste of time so I never rescheduled.
Lets see some pics of the damage.
Here's a before! They are pretty rough, been on the car for 15 years. (Paint work came out great btw) lol
It's coming along great! I'm wanna come with my 6er to see this thing one day.
I emailed them about a month ago, sent photos as requested. No response.
I made a appointment with them, coming out Tuesday, 75$ a wheel for rash repair, stripping paint and clear... bends more if they are bad, not bad. Will keep you posted.
Paint looked fine IMO too, but then again I never saw the car in person. Are you really going to chop up that nice car with a pandem kit?
Silver hides imperfections in photos. Had a lot of mini rock chips when you look really closely. I'm thinking of doing the pandem. Not 100% on it. But when done right it looks really cool and aggressive. I've seen cars that look like crap with the kit, and cars that look super nice. All Depends on the quality of install.
