A build from the darkside
NO sal
![]() This is the muscle i had before the bmw, and i miss her, 351windsor mustang ![]() ![]() Picked up my 01 325ci in late 2004 with 90k on the odometer for 15k, as my third mode of transportation (99 tahoe, vstar bike)She had all the nice options sunroof sport suspension 12 speaker hk system xenon headlights 17in rims nice sports seats I was in love. This is kind of how i picked her up except for the painted rims and the exhaust. ![]() And the the mod bug got me HARD around 2008 ![]() heres all my bday stuff in 2008, from friends, gf, and me ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But around this time the auto transmission started to **** up, i had a mechanic look at it and he said that it would need a rebuild . This resulted in the sitting for a little longer than a year as i collected parts and information on the 5 speed swap .I also decided to install all the parts i got. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also got rims from a local off his M3

Early 2010 i moved back to San Antonio and i stored the car in my girlfriends moms garage lol, i have no pics of this for some reason?? I ended up starting and finishing the 5 speed swap, which was actually not that hard.
During this time i also experimented with colors for the rims ![]() And here she is fresh from the garage all ready to GO! ![]() ![]() ![]() And so the mods continue Carbon fiber fenders ended up not fitting cause they were for a sedan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also i picked up a lip for the m3 bumper which has still not made it on the car ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also got an AFE intake More pics of the interior as i finalized somethings and picked up an m3 wheel ![]() OOOO i also scored a roof rack that was actually for a VW but i customized it to fit my car. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Then i was getting a litle tired of the rims since the offset was really aggressive and they are a little heavy, so i picked these up.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But they were only 16s so i changed my mind again and sold the Rs's and picked up these. My plan is to run a squared set up with 4 rear rims. Since i had the money i had the opportunity to pick this stuff up. Went out and took a couple shots with my friend. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I like what you did with the interior. You need a new shifter. Pics of gauge cluster?
