(LOOKING FOR GOOD OPTIONS FOR A CUSTOMIZED LICENSE PLATE THAT INCORPORATES "M3" IN IT)



Well I finally joined the M3 group a few days ago (12-21-16).

I was looking for a M3 project car for cheap, not a pristine one. I found one in pretty good condition for a great price and snatched it up!

Salvage title carbon black on cinnamon interior with a few aftermarket parts here and there.

I would have preferred a 6 speed manual but I definitely don't mind the SMG and am prepared to pay for it when the notorious parts give out.

This will be a heavily modified car and I can't wait to get it started, enjoy!









Here is my old 323i that was totaled by a family member about 2 years ago now.

I plan on "stancing" the M3 but I will keep it much cleaner than this and much more performance minded.

Some more pictures until I get the airlift performance bag set up installed

Having just recently joined the M crew myself, clean car and solid photography. Interested to see where you take it.

Message me on IG, I've got a whole list of plates with M3 Incorporated into it written down somewhere

It's always fun when a deer hits you...

New corner lights look like they'll be my first modification. Fender is bent as you can see in the picture, I have a plan to take care of that down the road anyways...

[b.o.d.h.o.m]

Took her to my friend's friend who is a bmw mechanic and he inspected the car. Everything looks good except a small leak in the lower radiator hose. The rear sway bar wasn't bolted down in the back on the right side though..... weird. So of course we fixed that.

Ordered all the fluids I could think of to give it a complete re-fresh. Let me know if you can think of anything else it would need done.

I ordered

Oil change kit
Coolant
Trans fluid
Diff fluid
Spark plugs

Also ordered new corner and side lights since the "clear" one got busted.

[b.o.d.h.o.m]

Received and installed the new LED Smoked Corner lights and side markers from Khoalty.

The passenger side corner was hard to push in because of the bent fender from the deer incident.

After installing it as best as possible I noticed condensation starting to collect on the inside of the headlight lens. Also the projector stopped working. I'm guessing when I was pushing the corner into place it must have made contact with the back of the projector and pushed it out of it's socket.

Also the side markers don't work. I think I just need to flip the bulb though.

Some of you might have heard but we are getting an intense rain storm (for the area) so that'll all have to wait until that's over since I don't have a garage.

So.... apart from led turn signals and a whole bunch of pictures of the car stock... what are you going to do to it? I'm sorry but I can't help but feel like maybe this should be in the showroom or an appreciation thread :/
