Absolutely dude, I'm going to give her the full treatment.
Already fitted the M3 exhaust system.
My to do list:
1. Black Interior with G-Spec seats, carpets, roofliner all included.
2. M3 Steering
3. M3 skirts
4. M3 mirrors
5. M3 beadings
6. M3 rear bumper with diffuser
It's a done deal for all these stuff in the list, just waiting for delivery.
I will update this thread with developments.

What an awesome find, I would have honestly kept it original ,
here I see tons of E36 M3s driving around on our roads and we are so used to seeing these cars that I personally dont give them a second look anymore, but never do I see one of these . I did see an import one though once on a truck headed for Mozambique and the only reason it caught my eye was because it wasn't an M3.
If its changed into an M3 Look a like, its just gonna be another car on the road , Nothing unique about it anymore. Keep it stock , its so unique for our roads.

No worries, I will save the 325i badge at the back of the trunk or every Tom, Dick and Harry will start revving next to me looking for a dice. :rollsmile:

It's been a while that I've not been active here in this thread, but I've been busy with the coupe whenever I had some free time.
Just an update to what I've been busy with after I finally got a chance to snap some pics.
I decided to go for a full respray seen that some of the scratches on the hood, roof and and boot was just too deep.
The previous owner had it resprayed, not the correct colour though, so I decided to bring her back to her original colour, Diamant Schwarz Metallic.
Also kept the mirrors, but swapped the rear bumper for the M3 one, fitted M3 skirts and Beadings.
Opted to fit the same brand of coilovers (Maxtrac), seen that I have those on my vert and I'm quite happy with them.
So here we go guys, tell me what you guys think.
Thanks for checking it out and your valued opinions.
The 1st pic was before I fitted the coilovers.
Just for Fun...

I've prepared the bodywork meself, not a lot was needed to be done in any rate, so I've saved a lot on that.
Backyard job, decent and I'm happy. The oke's got a nice set up.
This guy charge about R10k a full respray including the paint and he uses Kapci paints.
You can PM me if you're interested and need his details.
