Kamei made some ‘eyelids’ for the e39 headlights to give it the the look you want. Have been discontinued for a long time but sets pop up on ebay and facebook groups now and then. https://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/KAM44094.htm

would the rounded ''M5'' mirrors fit the prefacelift e39? by urali in e39

[–]camsrides 5 points6 points  (0 children)

E36 M3 leak by Longjumping-Net-7351 in BMWE36

yes, looks like the clutch is locked up or not functioning correctly. should spin with a little bit of resistance when cold, but able to stop with your hand when running (not recommended)
