john,

question: which H&R springs are you ordering (sport or race?)

as always your car is incredible. if you kept your other wheels (they were amazing on your car), that way you could change your wheels periodically for the 2 different looks.

He could do but I was the lucky bugger that bought them! Cheers John! I've just registered will get some pics uploaded at some point. I must say that up close and personal is the only way to appreciate the condition of that motor!

the springs are the ones from the cup kit that they do but they are ones for the six cylinder e30

Yep it sure is... my favorite above all. Really goes well with some cecotto wheels.

I love the old one's better.

car is awesome as always - but your old wheels looked 100% better

paint the centers of Hartges the same color as the car and it will look much better ! Nice car btw !

john,

in the pics it seems that your front M3 grill badge is one slat too high on the grill. I only notice this because the rest of your car is bascally perfect and it catches my eye. Easy to adjust if you decide to, uses a couple of tabs (bendable) to hold onto the back side of the grill.

nice! I have the same ones, except it's a bit wider, 8.5 frt and 9.5 rear. your's looks brandnew. check out my gallery. Ogi

looks hot! i like the color of the car
same color as my e36.

[petro]

its Macao blue. not violet. dont think e36 came in Macao.

[jericho//m3]

my bad! looks like violet from the pics.
anyway i like the color, it looks hot

[petro]

Though I have not seen it in person, Macao seems to be a much deeper blue color and almost looks black in low light. Sort of a combination of black, midnight blue and dark slate...

Here is a custom painted Techno Violet e30 M3 for reference. More grape color.
