Hi, just registered here.

I'm from Brazil and I'm the proud owner of a 1996 e36 328 coupe, manual transmission.

Here is a pic of when she arrived home:

Now, how she is:

Thank you guys!!!

List of things done in the car since Nov/2011 when I bought it:

- Water pump (Bosch);
- Water hoses (OEM);
- Thermostat (Behr) and Aluminum cover (don't remember brand);
- Radiator fan blade (Febi);
- Cooling fluid (Parflu);
- Clutch (Luk), master and slave cylinder (both Sachs), I done the CDV when doing this too;
- Trans and diff oil (75w90 Wynn's full synth);
- Front brake pads (MCK);
- Rear wheel bearings (Fag);
- Rear trailing arm bushings (Lemforder);
- Rear shock tower reinforcements (Turner Motorsport);
- Front control arms balljoints (outer Febi and inner Ruville);
- FCA Bushings (Lemforder);
- Tie rods (Meyle);
- Sway bar links (Meyle);
- Head cover gasket (Victor Reinz);
- Depo gen IV projector headlights (wish I could find a set of ZKW ellipsoids);
- MTS Smoked corners (one came less smoked than other, must fix it);
- TYC Clear Taillights (very good finish, ten times better than Depo);
- Front ligthing bulbs are euro spec Osram Silverstars;

Just bought a set of BBS RC 090. I will work on them and install on on the car as soon as I can.

I like this dark windows.

Thank you, I like them too, came with the car but I'm considering removing it. Haven't removed yet because the tint is very useful here in Brazil. The sun shines a little hotter down here.
