    The Story Of My Build (Lots of pics) Swapped & Shaved

    Ill just jump right to it. sold my old 92 vert, bought an 03 e46 m3, crashed it, bought a 88 325is coupe. btw i run @e30_fanatics on instagram so if you havnt already do me a favor and give it a quick follow. my personal account on instagram is @tats_e30. let me know what you guys think.

    The Old Dirty


    The M3


    Then This Happened



    The New Dirty


    Brought Her Home And The Fun Began. At this point i had installed plastic bumpers, color matched the rockers and rear valence, lowered it, installed an is lip, smoked the headlights and painted the tails all red.

    The Heart: m50b25 with s50 cams,turner power pulleys and 21.5# injectors


    First Fill Up


    Now For Some Glamour Shots



    Alot of (literally) blood sweat tears and beers went into this car and i am happy with the end result even though its not done yet. Now all thats left to do is reupholster the interior red, source the rest of my 5 lugs parts since i have e36 coilovers and ti rear end for it, buy a trm chip, and a paint job.

                  Nice

                  How long did you have the M3? Any quirks? Would you buy it again?

                  Btw, your buddy's silver E36 looks nice.

                    I honestly loved the m3, i had it for about a year and i would definitely buy one again but i would get a coupe instead
