How i got it

How it looks now, added missing trim as well and have a wing ready to replace when i can be bothered

Just trying to save some cash to have some bit's of surface rust done and get the door painted to match properly as it's slightly off to the rest of the car and a few other little bit's i'm not happy with, the door looks worse in the photo than it actually is

I'm still trying to decide whether to M52 it, might leave it original as it's only got 94k on it

I've had a quote to do both sides and a bit round the towing hook for a grand, guy says that's to do it properly

Not had any other quotes yet so don't know if that's good or not

Small update, i still haven't had the arch and the other little bit's of rust sorted as i got made redundant back in feb so having to watch the money at the mo.

Seeing as the e30 is half what my e36 is to insure it's now my daily, not sure what to do with the E36 as it's been sat on my drive for 4 months now and looks a bit sorry for itself.

My painter mate offered to mop the car for me for nothing as the paint was really flat so obviously took him up on the offer, car was quite dirty when i took the pics and the wheels need a good clean but still looks 10x better than it did.


Excuse the iphone pics
