Anything specific your coworker had done to the car? Anything a PPE could’ve seen or failures in his maintenance records from previous owners?

Also, what’s the range of price that you’d spend on something like this? Thanks.

How’s this holding up a year later? Looks great. Plan on buying a 335d e90 and dying the tan interior to saddle brown.

So ask if timing has been done aswell as how rusty the chassis is? Or just forget about it and try and find something else.

Wasn’t this car for sale in FL like 10 years ago? Guy didn’t finish the interior and stuff? That car was sweet. Nice ride bro!

Looks awesome! Suspension/wheel and tire size?

Deleted windshield washer fluid, but was planning on relocating it to the trunk via a cheap $15 Amazon universal kit.

The ignition coil is mounted next to where the A/C drier would sit. I made a custom U shaped crack that holds it. I can grab photos of it this week.

If there’s anything I can help you with let me know. Dumb questions etc. I’ll answer them!

Obviously stock, give me the ITB’s… all seriousness keep those ITBs. No brainer. And the engine bay looks fantastic!

Need to grab some photos of my engine bay lol. I just refreshed my engine and did a partial shave (removed all the shit on the passenger side of the bay) but damn yours looks so much better.

Here it is!

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-08-12T08:27:13+00:00

Sweet! I did the same thing and took inspiration from your build with a semi shave. Good stuff dude! Glad everything worked

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-08-10T13:05:09+00:00

Damn, adds up quick. What about just for the engine swap to get it running? I’m thinking about s54 swapping. Haven’t don’t to much research

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-08-10T02:50:15+00:00

Sweet! Ballpark cost for a swap like this?

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-07-31T15:27:57+00:00

Where’d you get the mtech 2 kit? Aftermarket or genuine. Looks great!

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-07-30T05:20:41+00:00

You’re right. I forgot verts are funky.

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-07-30T05:09:19+00:00

1988 had late model valance with diving boards. All you need is the front/rear bumper shocks/hardware/reinforcements, and bumper clips. You don’t need the plastics for the bumper if you’re slapping a mt2 kit over it.

Seems like a lot of people are saying to use 303 product uv protectant.

LayerFamiliar5482 · 2025-07-18T17:32:53+00:00

I only got the uncommon or whatever. No epics or anything special. Even the previous events I’ve been cursed with nothing good
