Thanks for the kind words everyone

235/40...thanks mate

I must admit......I was driving the car very cautiously and not enjoying it during the test drive

new tyres ordered.......third time lucky I hope

The fronts are 7.5j and the 10j rears did rub with 225/45 profile tyres so I panicked and fitted the 215/30 profile tyres......but I think I will go to 225/40 profiles as these do look a it too stretched

So I finally got round to re-building my rear wheels to give them a 10j dish :D the tyres gave a bit more of a stretch then I expected but I'll leave them for now until I get tired of parking 1 metre away from the kerbs :chuckle: anyway here are some pics http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahm...

I got mine from my local BMW dealer.

I've had both of mine out in the sun

I just renewed the insurance on my M3 vert on Tuesday just gone....came to £274-84 fully comp with european breakdown cover...I'm with Carole Nash(who underwrite it by Chaucers)....my insurance renewal did go up but when I called them to ask why, they told me that it was becasue I had my wife on the...

A few of my pride and joy....UK Spec 8) now has Schnitzer mirrors and staggered 3 peice schintzer type 1 racing alloys but have not taken any recent pics http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahmed/E30%20M3/CIMG2737Small.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahmed/E30%20M3/CIMG2741Small.jp...

I have an E30 M3 Convertible.....UK Spec

Check the suspension is ok (look for uneven wear on tires), check the rear mount turrets (if they do not have the re-enforced plates, they will break through and cost a bit to repair), check the rear axle is not cracked and also that they rear subframe is on securly to the chasis floor.......other t...

I really like it

I've used BJV for all my alloys and I've had no issues with them....they were very helpful and I'd highly recomend them....true about the roads getting to them though

the local BMW and Mercedes dealers use them too for their second hand and demo stock cars.

Had the top off for the day winkeye ...so I thought I'd take some pics :cool: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahmed/E30%20M3/CIMG2735Small.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahmed/E30%20M3/CIMG2736Small.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b193/nmahmed/E30%20M3/CIMG2737Small.jpg ...

I'm in Mill Hill,North London mate

Mine is a genuine UK supplied 1989 M3 convertible in Diamond Swartz....has 60k on the clocks...mods so far are front evo II chin spoiler + splitter,smoked lights,front Recaro Speed seats(need to re-trim them now),lightened evo flywheel,hartge triple gauges(to be fitted on), 17" 3-peice AC Schnitzer ...

Mate..I got the seats for Ã‚£300 of ebay :cool: and I then tracked a brand new set of recaro seat rails from ebay.de which came in for Ã‚£70 including postage...and the fit was perfect...the seats are very comfortable and hold you in place..especially round the corners 8) by the way...when you start...

thanks for the comments guys....the seats are from an Evo IV winkeye the E30 Evo Recaro Speeds/SRDs tend to go for extremely silly money if you can find them...so I got these for a decent price and now I just need to get them re-trimmed...still are the Speed/SRD seats...just need to get the seat rai...

Finally managed to get the evo chin spoiler + the splitter sprayed and fitted....gave the car a mini clean and took some pics in the daylight and outside the garage for those of you who moaned last time :lol: :lol: :lol: just need to pick up the Schnitzers to put on...opinions welcome...and it will ...

d6dph..yes it was from R3Vltd....only I ordered mine and then the group buy started

jaistanley...the m-stripes on the kidney grill are going mate

camshaft...yes it can be polished

DaveD...the garage is only clean because my baby is in there...otheriwse it was a tip before

thanks for the positive comments people

I'm with simian on this one mate...price wise...it's not too bad...stick with OEM,as replicas generally tend not to last too long or look as good as the real deal...besides,if you're gonna do it,then do it right

dips... :D :D :D :D don love smileys :D :D camshaft...it did come in a body wrap which is how I fitted the first part on the bonnet...but when it came to the side...the body wrap doesn't handle the curves too well :( so in order to avoid loads of air bubbles and constant re-arranging...it was easier...

style 5s with black centres and polished dishes are coming in a few weeks...and I have a set of Type I racing 3-peice A C Schnitzers with negaro silver centres and gold bolts all round sat at the wheel refurbers...just need to put both sets on and see which set looks better :? as for the lowering......

I always wanted to get the checkered flag decal on the front bonnet, but I wanted it to be subtle...after searching forever, I eventually managed to find someone in America who made them 8O ....the choices I had was: (1)in the M-Tec colours....(2)in black 'n' white.....(3) in black or silver carbon ...

takes a while to get used to it...I hated my first day

...but give it 2 days tops and you'll be loving it...like harry_p said...the driving position is actually much more comfortable and natural

Awesome car mate....love a red M3

I once met some one who had used them and the hood was good but the fit wasn't perfect...he complained that he kept having to go back to get it adjusted....just minor adjustments, but still annoying having to keep going back...maybe they were new to the game then (about a year ago) and now have mana...

I went for the 6000k ones as well.....lights the road up just fine :twisted: ...4300k are definetly the brightest but I wanted the HIDs to have a slight blue tinge and the 6000k gives you that :P the guy did change his name to open a new UK account because of all the interest he was generating just ...

i dont know how long they will last prob same as most units that are sold on ebay, the stickers look wonkey best to ring bosch and find out if they make them and sell them The ones you've shown are different from the ones we're all going on about......they just say made in germany and the quality o...

I think they are genuine Bosch as they have a hologram on the ballasts and the stickers on the ballasts seem to be of good quality....a bit too much effort if they were fake

...there are some others now selling Bosch HID kits which blatently look fake and are more expensive

I've had HIDs conversion kits on other cars without the headlamp wash wipe system + auto leveling system and I've never had any issues on MOTs

Congrats mate......lovely motor
