    the list:
    -Low Tech springs 60/50 spring rate 285/450
    -bilstien sport shocks
    -new complete tie rod assemblys
    -e30 m3 solid offset control arm bushings
    -new control arms
    -e36 cabby rear shock mounts
    I'm gonna put the side skirts on soon

    looks a lot better, I think if it was a little lower or had some bigger wheels it would be great.

      Bigger wheels, and a set of skirts would make it golden.

          A set of 10 or 15mm spacers would do wonders.

              Appears as though you have uneven "gaps."

              Please fix and get bigger wheels.

                yeah i don't know why its so much lower in the back. Its only been 17 hours so maybe it will settle in the front.

                  Did you have skirts on there before, I noticed the "dirt" line near the fender wells?

                      HINT: the arches are not actually level on the body itself, so you can't go by that, you need to measure from somewhere else to check the rake.

                        Yeah they were on backwards and the holes don't line up the same when i flip it.
                        The rake is more towards the front but you know how bimmers are.

                              seriously. my lowtec front springs had less coils.
                              however it had same part number as yours and the other lowtec owners

                              best modification to any car is a clean car.
