Hewsly's Alpinweiß E36 328 - AcSchnitzer parts
 
I recently joined this site as i work long boring hours and dont do much but have a computer! Saw a few BMW's on here as i used to have a saxo and saw this site email address in the window of one and im amazed at how active it is!

Anyways here is my e36 328 Mrep.

131k on the clocks
Full cream leather interior that needs cleaning
standard exhaust system
Msport rep alloys in grey
HID's
Alpina numberplate surrounds
Cheap coilovers which need replacing ideally and highering as too low for me.

Bought it from a guy in birmingham which took me 2 hours to get it.











Ordered a M50 manifold for it from an AC schnitzer car which is pretty rare which im lead to believe i plan to make it into a ACS replica M. I have a few parts coming and ready to be installed very soon - Spacers, top mounts, gearbox mounts, gearbox links and the PAS tube needs to be replaces as it leaks.

that shape actually looks okay in white :) normally not a fan
cant believe your interiors meant to be cream lol

Simon0014 15th December 2011 17:03

I like it a lot!! The rear needs to be raised up a bit more but the front looks perfect! Awesome colour as well.

Not a fan of the wing mirrors though, I prefer standard 328 ones not the m3s

:P haha yes its very very dirty. Got some auto glym leather cleaner and balm and when im off for crimbo im going to whore out the interior and make it presentable. Yes i agree e36 are very ugly without an M kit.. okay in some colours in an M kit but in white it really sets the E36 off :).

baker556 15th December 2011 17:04

Normally don't like this shape think there chavtatic in yellow.

However this looks uber smart !

Yes the rear is horribly low, the coliovers are stupid wanted to slap the bloke for thinking that looked good, its so impracticle and also the coilovers on the front are not only not set at the same height as the other side they hit the alloys :panic:. The wing mirrors are very hard to see out off... the normal ones make the e36 look speckial imo lol.

Oh in the dakhar yellow? saw a smart one the other day but it was very clean and very OEM.

Thank you. I dont plan to do anything exterior wise, and really like the subtle spoiler its got. Only exterior thing is to put the ACS sticker on the back quater near the back wheels.

Lewis 15th December 2011 21:32

MiniGibbo 15th December 2011 21:37

By those photos dude I'd of guessed your interior is silver like mine was..

Cream is an individual colour and very yellow.

timmythechef 15th December 2011 21:48

Is it better than your gibbo? :)

wassy78 15th December 2011 21:58

*silver.

Black leather vaders would look good but only if he got the full black plastics. Black seats and grey plastic look shit.

wassy78 15th December 2011 22:03

No grey silver is when it's clean :)
