Fixing the cracks would mean redoing the bondo again. I've had it redone 3 times and since the fender is mostly made of bondo now, it will keep cracking again. I really do want to keep this car, so...

Hey Everyone, just a super short update here. I'll post pictures later today of the cracks in the fender. My plan for this year is to ask a few auto body shops about possibly cutting another E46 rear...
Another quick update, I switched the sport seats back into my car, and they are much easier on my back than the M3 seats. I put the M3 seats back in my car to make sure, and i can definitely tell the...
Could i have it changed to "Estoril Coupe Repair/Build Thread?
Sorry about that :X is there a way i can change the title of this thread?
I thought this project thread was a build thread :0
I won't be doing much more to my car though, everything else i want to do is too expensive, and saving up for an M3 would be more cost effective....
Howdy yall!
Finally back with an update, it's been a while, not too much has happened though. From my last post i mentioned i got the transmission and differential serviced, i put M3 seats in, put...
Hey everyone, i'm finally back. It's been a crazy ride and a lot has happened, i'm writing up a summary of everything that's happened and i'll try to have it posted tonight
Hey everyone! I'm finally back. Life has been so hectic recently, i haven't had a minute to spare with school starting and moving house and too much to do. I've done a few more mods to the car, and...
Howdy Yall!
I finally got a chance for a small photoshoot after washing my car. I was running out of daylight, but I hope these pictures are enough. I'll take some more from angles I missed soon. ...
I agree, Tim. I just finished painting the diffuser with black plasti-dip, and i'll post some more pictures soon. I do need to get a new interior too. Everyone i know has black interiors and i need a...
Hey everyone! Happy New Year! I finally got my car back, there were a few delays but it's finally home! Just in time for the new year.
Whenever i post links to pictures on Flickr they don't seem to...
I should get my car back on Thursday next week :biggrin i can't wait!
Hey everyone! Long time no see! So much has happened, and yet so little at the same time. I'll summarise without all the emotions though, only facts. Since the last time i updated, the bondo on my...
You're right. I'm getting too excited by a seemingly great deal on dent removal and paint. It'll probably end up like the last time, and i need to think logically. The shop guys never responded, so...
I didn't know it worked that way! :eek
Now i have too many options, and i don't know which colour i like most out of all of them! I love Jet Black and Steel Grey, but i see too much...
Holy crap, i didn't know about those colours :eek
The shop that i'm going to has to make their own paint though, i'd have to bring a sample of the colour i want and i don't think i'd be able to...
I would definitely love that combo. I've decided to repaint the car Mystic Blue, but the shop still hasn't gotten back to me. If they don't call me soon i'm going to have to keep my car's exterior...
I used a number that my mechanic gave me, a guy that replaces windshields for super cheap. I think he only works within 25 miles of the Sacramento area in California. The windshield replacement only...
Alright, finally had the chance to wash my car, and i forgot to mention i had the windshield replaced recently.
Here are some photos of the replacement door, and the fender's misshapen side with the...
Sorry i put large paragraphs, i always forget to take pictures when i do maintenance and mods. I bought a replacement driver's side door and moved over all the hardware from my bent door to the good...
Hey everyone!
Sorry i haven't updated in a while! Life's been pretty hectic, but i have made great progress on my car. I saved up and refreshed my car's suspension. I bought the Bilstein B12...
I finally got the time to fix the rest of the wiring for the sound system! I cut the part of the harness for the amp, and soldered each wire together, put the amp in, put the subwoofers back in and...
I finally got to order a bunch of parts for the sound system. I ordered the H/K amplifier/radio tuner/brackets for the trunk, the subwoofers/enclosure/amp, and the full wiring harness for the whole...
Did you retrofit the wiring to work? I want to see if it's possible to switch the mirror motors and wires into the M3 mirrors so they'll still function.
Also, what kind of halo rings do you have in...
