Whats up guys...I have seen a few BMW guys on vortex and im guessing are posting on here too. Anyways i parted my corrado, well most of it and picked up an e36.

If anyone has some e36 m3 goodies they want to get rid of or a smashed 4dr let me know.

Id post pics but i guess i have more posting to do before the forum lets me.

Congrats on the car. I'll have to swing down that way sometime and check it out.

I'm on the vortex as well, mostly for the track days that Erik sets up.

Thanks. Im not going to lie the cars interior is trashed. Im on the hunt for interior but not finding anything.

I was after a black body and wanted a 4dr and 318 for the insurance prices and no options.

Yikes, corrado to 318 :(

Hopefully you got plans for that thing or else you might be pretty dissapointed with BMWs ;)

btw, I'm in longmont and drive the white M3 you see in my sig. There's another white M3 that's around here too with a CF hood and such. Welcome to the club though!

Yeah its a 318 but because of my driving record if i got an M it would kill me. So I picked up the body in the color and body style i wanted to build the M3 and keep the cheap insurance. I am still looking for the perfect doner car so i can get the pieces i need. I plan on putting the interior stuff in if i can find the car soon enough and bumpers. The suspension im buying will be for an M and go on once i get the arms and brakes on. But the motor will be next winter to give me some time to replace anything that could go wrong or i could replace to have a a reliable set up. I also plan on going FI at that point and have started looking in to blowers and turbo kits.

I havent seen that M around i dont think.I saw the white one with the CF hood at the conoco by my house. It looked like a clean car i just didnt like the mods on it. Im sure you will see me driving more when the weather get nice out. For now im driving a lifted toyota with a smashed front end. I will fix it once the snow stops for a while and i can drive the bmw.

Whats up Russell !!!! I moved to Thornton, sold the Corrado and put some snow tires on the Coupe. It does pretty good as long as the snow isn't to deep. I'll have to give you a call. Nice choice by the way.

Well I have some Rear clear corners that i would give you, but you have a 4 door and they are only for a coupe. Great car though and good luck with your build make sure to keep us posted on how it goes.

Hey,Havent heard from you in a while..I wondered if you ever sold that thing. I parted mine after a dream of a black 4dr m3 on 18inch BBS splits that was slammed. This one wont ever see snow I drove it home with tons of ice and i will say it does better then my truck in 2wd but i rather drive my winter beater. It doesnt matter how deep the snow is,I can drive through it like it was dry out. If you ever need pulled out let me know Im always out playin in the snow and end up pulling out anything from civics to city plows.

Thanks for the offer on the tails AlpinweissM3 Im going to order the lighting part of the build this weekend. I think if i can find the crystal clear smoked corner lights with out the stupid little projector in it im getting everything else to match. If not it will be the crystal clear stuff and i will smoke it myself or Laminex them with the smoked stuff. I Split my headlights lastnight and just to try something out did yellow highbeams and yellow fogs. I figure i have the headlights on the way so why not.:cool

If you want to drive up to ft. collins you can have them this weekend. Otherwise if the weather doesn't get much worse I could probably try and meet you somewhere.

I willtake the smoked cleas off your hands just let me know what you want for em. I can go up to foco even if the wether sucks and grab them if ya want...i was looking at my clears when i installed them and theres a tab about to brake on them so i need to replace them.Plus they stand out like a sore thumb with my new light set up.
