  • Inka.

    After some time away from the car world taking care of other priorities in life, im back in a BMW E36 vert. This time in a properly maintained 1999 M3 with only two owners. Came across the car accidentally on Craigslist, I was looking for an 8 series and stumbled onto this. I am no fan of silver...especially with grey interior, however, I knew I had to buy it after I imagined what I would do to it, paint it BMW 2002 Inka Orange on 18" three piece style 5's with clean driveable fitment. No rediculous camber and stupid low on this car. My last vert (Marilyn) burnt me out from that life. Words cant describe how much better life is when everything in your car works properly!












    I don't like E36 M mirrors at all, swapped them to E34 mirrors, new headlights and fogs.



    Gave some life to the faded ///M emblem



    Spring Cleaning...

    everything was covered in a yellowish film. So grosss.




    Cleaned | Dirty



    Clean



    Swapped the wheels for something more my taste.



    Found a set of never mounted OG Broadways.






    Desperate for anything to do to the car at a cheap price...
    Used some aluminum sheet from lowes, craftsmanship, and good ol JB Weld









    Bumper crack fixed using leftover aluminum I used for my heat shield and more JB Weld and Slats in place.



    With the Broadways settled, lowered it a hair.



    Did some measurements on the Style 5 faces.

              The balloon tires are the only thing keeping me up which is fine with me! Im hoping once I get the 18"s I wont have to raise or lower the car. Perfect height for everyday driving in my opinion. Gotta love how the underside of E36's are setup.



              On a side note I will be painting the car in a month or so!

                    Could have very easily put an end to this thread today.

                        Just finished reading your entire Marilyn build (instead of working)...totally EPIC!
                        Sad to see her go, but dayum it was nice to watch her walking away!

                        Looking forward to following Inka through her journey! Keep doing what you do so good sir!

                            This is gonna be awesome like your last e36, but I imagine you're gonna lower it, and lower it, and lower it like your last car :P

                            I dig the interior after you got it all cleaned up! Stoked to see the new paint though! Great find!

                              Gotta love this. haha

                              Good build thread so far. All these e36 revival threads gives me motivation. The bank account, and gf, aren't going to be happy.
