I couldn't find them at the end of the day too, so now I'm fucked. It's small enough to fix with my scratch pen, but still. Cmon man. Makes me not want to park anywhere unless there are like 10 empty spaces around my car.

Maybe ask the surrounding businesses to see if anyone had any window work done? Its not like your asking for top secret information... just the company name.

They're on my job site. I've seen them. Now I can't seem to find them odd huh? Lol

Nice Rims on this (E93?) M3. And an excellent shot!

Introduction from a new owner

Hello fellow PNWers
New to E30 ownership and hence this site. I just picked up an 84 318i to serve as a commuter "with benefits". It's clean and rust-free but it's just got a slushbox with three cogs.
I was a longtime Volvo owner and I've recently moved to Bellingham from Seattle. When this coupe popped up on Craigslist last month I knew I needed to check it out. Since then I've been enjoying the exchange of knowing nods and waves from other owners.
I look forward to learning more about the car via this forum, and I hope to connect with fellow fans in the region.

Glad to have you!!! You will find that this website is a great resource for finding parts, making friends, and making memories that will last. If you are loving meeting other e30 owners you HAVE to make it to the e30 picnic the last weekend of June. The picnic is held in Tacoma and is a weekend full of BMWs, beer and buddies. Hope to see you there!

people will give you shit for driving the slowest e30 ever offered in the states... but its yours and nobody can take it away from you! sounds like you already know about the magic these cars offer when youre behind the wheel! congrats on your purchase!!

Welcome to r3v and happy modding.

so my car keeps blowing fuse 23... which means no dash lights. I believe there is a short in there since the fuse blows whenever the switch is pulled. Besides the wiring loom exposed on the floor/gunwale areas (gutted car) where do y'all suspect the problem to be? Im thinking the rear ash tray wiring or in the dash near the HVAC controls. I recently installed a head unit in my car but I perform very high quality electrical repairs... I think my install is not at fault here (still gonna check it though).

I'd double check your work, just in case. It doesn't hurt, and it might be something simple that you overlooked.

Last night I added up everything I've spent so far on my build.



People, please. Never do this.

It's insane to keep track of it ... I just put all the invoices in my scanned folder ... I'll add it up if I need to for insurance.

You fucked up. Don't ever do that again. I gathered part of my receipts and roughly added numbers once and damn near shit myself...needless to say, I never cared enough to do that again...

[IronJoe]

Yeah. It's good to keep records but man it's depressing. I could have bought two used e46 m3s by now and I'm still not done

I could own a used C6 Z06 Corvette or a used SRT-8 Challenger (maybe a *well used* Hellcat ) for what I've spent, so I feel your plight...
