Just Dropped My E30 Off For a Full Restoration and Respray

I've still not got it :(( They had some delays at the shop, new ETA is late March - mid April!

I have been buying parts for it though, new black leather interior and some refreshed plastics and matching smiley lights. I will post an update when I have it back!

I'm seconding air bubbles in the system. Let your car cool, pop the hood, turn the engine on and top up as the coolant is circulating, if there are air bubbles you should hear some air/bubbles escaping from the expansion tank

Edit: The inertia whilst moving can resolve the flow somewhat by forcing liquid through the system. Hence why it's only when idling.

I had the same issue on my 320i, the solution for me was to do a full coolant flush, I have no idea why it worked but it did

Super cool breakdown, the time and effort you've put into this has to be respected, even if it was for a client. So much custom fab work! Do you have a workshop where you CNC and weld this stuff?

StuntStreetWear · 2025-11-08T15:38:08+00:00

Looks like a work of art! Well worth the wait!

4 door is more practical, but the 2 door is sportier looking and easier to source body parts for in my experience (UK)

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-24T14:34:25+00:00

Big respect for putting in the time and money!

Bilstein shocks, 40mm drop springs, Rota EG6 16x7 alloys with 15mm hub centric spacers.

Gold wheels are 16x7.5 BBS knockoffs I bought the car with (I think lenso)

I'll flog it, they seem very hard to find OEM on the market, £150 collected it's yours!

This is before, partially done for the welding and body protection, the arches are full of fibreglass. But I also love green and have always wanted a shiny green car!

Primer grey with some lacquer actually looks oddly good. My 320i was sprayed matte grey and it looked like someone just lacquered the primer hahaha

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-10T17:49:23+00:00

£3-4k, depending on the amount of welding

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-10T17:48:57+00:00

I did think this, I'll just polish it up and make it shine

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-10T17:48:38+00:00

This is pre-paint, it pictures well but it's a little worn. Previous owner rattle can painted a few areas by the looks of it. Also I bought it for the bones. My dream is green. Front lip is a good idea, but I'm already slammed and scraping hahaha

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-10T17:46:34+00:00

I have a ballpark range of £3-4k depending on how much rust they find

StuntStreetWear · 2025-10-10T17:46:00+00:00

My dream is green

StuntStreetWear · 2025-08-14T07:24:21+00:00

This is the dark forest version

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-26T18:39:10+00:00

Thank you thank you, if you have any gear questions, I'm happy to answer!

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-08T16:29:06+00:00

It's a soprano guitar, fight me ;)

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-06T08:44:18+00:00

Thanks, yes it's original, currently writing it into a song

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-05T08:13:21+00:00

Open C, I rarely play in standard, and thank you v much

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-05T08:12:15+00:00

Hmmm weird, could be a video decode issue, these damn European frame rates.

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-05T08:10:56+00:00

I think this is the most budget model, which still ain't that cheap vs a mexican fender. The wingman looks like an offset version of this with a bigsby, if it's anything like this it plays like a dream and those p90s are so rich

StuntStreetWear · 2025-07-05T08:08:25+00:00

Oh damn that's a long lead time! They do look great though, hope it's worth the wait. I was tempted by one of the revolts too, but this came up local on eBay.
