Did you get my PM james?

Yeah, sorry mate, thought I replied - will do it now before I forget again

[Dezzy]

This car's interior will be a nice place to be!

This arrived today.
I got some great help finding one of the last ones. Red screen ftw

[Blitz]

I wish I could afford that.

[Jhonno]

Dezzy mate, here you go.. I tried the 1 series wheel on.

Basically it didn't fit BUT it has a large (10mm ish) step where the caliper was trying to sit (reducing the I/D by 20mm), which also would be 20mm further out with the correct offset..





So I would say, a 16" with a 'correct' shape behind the spokes would fit over M3 calipers

[Dezzy]

Thanks mate. Is that 20mm on 1 series wheels then as that would be about right for my wheels.
So that's E36 M3 discs and calipers that bolt straight to my E30M3 legs?

[Jhonno]

Calipers bolt straight on..

Discs will with a spacer behind them.. 12.7mm iirc, but would have to check that. Or you can run a custom hub and rotor..

[Dezzy]

I would be using E36 as a temp fix till the 4 pot kit is ready.

Cheers Jhonno!

[sweep]

Dezzy whats the wheels any better pictures?

[Dezzy]

They are atc's mate. 16" they were 5x114 now they are 4x100 thanks to my local welding and machining specialists.

They will be for sale once my 5 stud set up is on.

[sweep]

[Dezzy]

Yeah wouldnt mind ,im concidering some bbs splits 16inch rs's.

I will find them out and PM you when I get home mate.

[Dezzy]

Finally got some mig gas and finished modding manifolds and frontpipes.
Just need fully welding a d wrapping.

I have also got a starter now thanks to Brother Lee. So nothing should really stop me. Famous last words.

Oh and a little eBay bargin too of Brother Dan.

Looks brand new that. It's a nice touch with a leather gaitor as well. I wouldn't be without one in my car.

[Dezzy]

It is like new. I have a leather handbrake gaitor and the lad re trimming my seats is doing me a gear gaitor in matching leather.

I have just bought some leather restorer for my small tech 1 wheel and tech 1 knob.

[E30BeemerLad]

why stop at the interior mate?

[Dezzy]

Where did you get that pic from Lee?
I thought I got rid of that.

You got any ticks on your list mate?

[E30BeemerLad]

Only minor stuff mate, was a nervous 5 mins with the razor blade in hand cutting the headlining for the rear blind clips.

Hopefully get a couple of hours done on it tomorrow night

[Dezzy]

Good man.

I am putting that job off.

My rear bench is ready tomorrow so it will need to go in first.

[Ollie_bwoii]

I had completely leather bits on mine gear gaitor, gearknob, handbrake gaitor and sleeve.

I didn't like how the E36 handbrake sleeve fitted with the gaitor so got rid of it, but I will get an E34 one at some point.

[Dezzy]

Few pics of the leather back M3 bench in place.




Blind shelf too

I am ringing them in a bit to see if anything else is ready.

[johnt0709]

looks mint - i like.

[DanThe]

Bench is the tits
You need sound deadening under it though, and wtf is going on with those chavy silver ringed speakers? Its just not on bruv

[Dezzy]

I know bruv they weren't the best looking but do sound good. They have been in a few now so I am fond of them.

It will have sounddeading fitted when they go in properly.

Leave my speakers alone anyway they are black to match the shelf.

[Jhonno]

Where's da M stripes and fluorescent piping bruv?!

[Dezzy]

M stripes are for those of us with M cars mate. No one else.

[E30BeemerLad]

It's gone quiet. What's happening chap?

[Rav335uk]

It's gone quiet. What's happening chap?

He's recovering from Heatstroke

[Dezzy]

3 years of marrage last weekend. Been away guys.

Done a bit of leather dyeing on steering wheel etc. Looks really good.

Other half of bench will be rear Monday as the lads been away this week.

Car will move on this week as I need it done!

[Dezzy]

Steve it has been fooking warm up North mate. 28 yesterday and better today they reckon.

Some quick pics of my dyeing

The wear is quite bad on the knob but was worse on the steering wheel

I bought this leather handbrake handle of Danthe it was mint but they all need to be the same so


And the wheel looks amazing.


I am really pleased, justhope it doesnt come off in my hand ha ha
