Hey I am Justin and I am moving to Mayport in June. I know I am not the first E36 but its all good. I have some big plans for my car and maybe I will be able to get some advice from some of you later.

First piece of advice: lose the eyebrows. Also, why are your mirrors black? Can't say I've seen that before. Oh yeah, and welcome to the site, heh.

alot of the older e36s came with black mirrors.....irs prolly a 92 or 93

Like he said im also not a big fan of the eyelids....get a mtech front bumper or get urs color matched along with ur mirrors and sideskirts...

what kind of performance mods you have?? i see you have gauges in ur A pillar?

Oh and welcome

Sweet the more e36's the better (cause E36 = the best duh). I to have big plans for my car, money right now is the limiting factor!

I like eyelids but those are a little to aggressive for my tastes but if you like it then so what...

Welcome...that's definitely a unique setup...style 45 non-sport E46 rims on an E36. I had the same rims on my car before my CSLs.

SterlingSilber3- where/who did you get the rims from?

Maybe he has battery, oil pressure, temp in the gauges...?

Ok, here's a question. Where did you get that 3 gauge pillar pod? Or is that a universal one?

I have 4 gauges now and only 2 places to put them, Dunno, I'll figure something out.

About the gauges. I think they're cool looking. It may be kinda rice if you dont really need them, but it still looks cool. Either way rice is really just a persons opinion. If you like the way yur car looks, meh, who cares what other people say. And besides, even if you wanna call him a ricer, hes like the least rice out there, ive seen some riced out rides, like omg, i dont even wanna get into it. LOL.

Nice ride dude. Its kinda made me want to get gauges. But i doubt I will though. Kinda expensive. Someone said that maybe they are his temp gauges, is that possible to get those there? How much do gauges cost? As you can probably tell, Im interested. LOL.

WOW. I didnt think I would have that many replies so quick. Okay. To start off with....The eyelids. I custom hand made them, from my own thoughts. I wanted something different than what I had seen, and something aggressive, and damn do these look aggressive at night. Second, the guages, I have vacuum, oil pressure, and air/fuel ratio. basically I got them because I thought that they added a little bit more of an aggressive touch. The guage pod was supposed to be the full pillar, which was what it said when I bought it but when I got the package it was just a 3 guage pillar. Thirdly, the mirrors and paint. I actually have M3 mirrors that I want to replace with some DTM cup style mirrors, the paint, I want to get the front bumper sideskirts that I have in my garage, and back bumper and new mirrors painted. I also just want to get a lip for the front bumper because it is kind of growing on me now. Fourthly. The wheels, they came on the car, I like them but I am going to get something with a fat ass lip.I know that you guys werent busting on me, but, I am the least RICE person you will ever meet. I honestly consider the mods that I have done to be tasteful and within reason. I cant wait to get down there so we can hang out and talk BMW stuff. Hey, everybody buy next months Euro Tuner....My boy Chrisian Bouchez is being featured in it with his blue E36 325i. Its sick as all hell. You wont be disappointed.Later

That's a neat set up. Just wondering...why a Air/Fuel ratio on a natural aspirated engine and not oil temp or something?

I really like the light display that it creates. That is really why, but also, I am planning on going F.I. I will try to get some pictures sized down of Christians 325i. It is really cool looking.
