Hi all

I want to change the look of my car and not sure what look to go for on me E36 Coupe.

Ive currently got the Alpina look, and was wondering if i should keep the look and get a front splitter and side skirts, or to change to the M3 or AC look, or a combi of them all???

Heres some piccys, what do you recon????








Thanks

Definitely this one:

Thats what i was thinking, looks well mean.

Its got a GT rear and front spoilers, and M3 bumbers and skirts.

Not sure what the wheels are though, but look nice

mod it in youre own little way. try a wings west kit (www.wings-west.com) bbs wheels big ice and a trick paint job. theres loads of pieces to get! type in bmw body kits on google.

What E36 variant is it?

gav888

Ive got a E36 325 Coupe in black.

Currently got Alpina wheels and badges.

Just asking 'cos only 316/8 owners should go down the M3 line .

I agree with the look chosen in the above pic.

gav888

true, theres loads of M3 318's around here, so wasnt sure on that, wanted something different, hence the Alpina look to start with.

But the GT look looks well nice.

I had an ACS kitted 328i Coupe which looked the business but the GT look is sweet too. Those BBS wheels definitely suit the E36 Coupe.

I think they are BBS LM's or something?? V Expensive!

I like the AC look on E36 cars.

Love the 5 spokes that some of them have got.

its an old design now and the second you bolt something on it you will do nothing other than age it further....at best you'll get some kids at chip shops like it.

all those pics look iffy to me, the only body kit id have on an E36 is a std sport kit from BMW.

But his E36 must be fairly old if it a 325 so where's the harm?

Tiggs

it draws attention to it.

nothing wrong with an e36 but slapping kits on it smacks of nasty (IMO)

How about Esqiss and a wee bit of pick n mix?

Hi

Yeh the car is a 93 model couldnt afford a newer coupe at the time, well, could have got a 95 model, but that had over 130,000mls and mine is still only got 90,000mls.

The E36 ran from 91 - 99 (i think) in coupe form, so i could make mine look like a 99 car, (with the help of a private plate) so thats why you stick a kit on the car

but there is the problem of the steering wheel not having a airbag but that can be changed with the rest of the interior.
