So, been lurking for a while now. Thought i'd set up my own build thread because i'm quite inexperienced when it comes to cars. I could really do with some advise. :X
I've had my 318i for about a year now i guess, bought is mostly stock (not mentioning the dodgy stuff the previous owner has done) and i'm now in a state of mind of getting it pretty enough to sell so i can buy a non-convertible model
What i've done so far:
- New door handle trim
- cold air intake
- bought a hardtop
- (new) carpet
- new ashtray (previous owner wrapped everything in burberry
- spacers all round
- euro clock install (messed up my cluster :?)
- alarm delete
- cleaned up the engine bay
My to-do list:
- fix rust (get a MIG welder and angle grinder)
- paint roof
- paint bumpers (black)
- get OEM carpet
- fix cluster
- repair wheels
- replace some bushings here and there
- new windshield
- fix softtop
- fix leaking softtop rubbers
The build will go slowly because i dont have alot of money to spare, but i'll try to upload a small fix once a week or so.
So here she is!
And a close-up of the wheels
