Cars look good, both of them. The e36 REALLY needs the M front bumper, it just looks off without it.
I think hed like to, just dont know how much more hes going to put into it, old lady is 6 months pregnant. ive been on him to get the dinan stage 2 but that doesnt look like happening either
Man those tow hooks stick out like a sore thumb. In a really really bad way. Otherwise your car looks pretty darn clean and I'm not a big E36 fan, but I can live with it since it's been worked under the hood.

This, and the window sticker.

yeah the pedals kinda kill it for me too. so does the red silicone couplers. other than that i think its clean for its age.
i dont know if any of the pictures show the peeling clear coat on the roof/trunk. its almost non existant.
both cars are meh.....def need a better location for pics
RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...
reread first two lines. it was attempted
I like both cars for the most part.
If he's going to rock that sticker though he needs to be a lot lower.
I'm amused that you don't like his red silicone hose couplers but think that your red tow hooks look cool.
i like the car, ... lose the tow hooks. I see hondas do that everywhere, i didnt know getting towed had bragging rights.
Or at least put useful tow straps on the car.

lol silly jbo users. tow hooks are useful, do the research. Here Ill help. Engineered by John Powell at Powellraceshop dot com.
theyre staying on the car due to an incident i had a few weeks back and i dont carry the tools to take the hooks on and off for when needed hence why they stay on.
if you knew what he makes for the cobalt world youd be impressed. function over form.

i know and understand people here are not going to be up to date with parts of cars on another platform, but when its explained why mine stay on the car yet people still try calling it out saying theyre not functional or compare them to honda ebay hooks then it just becomes ignorance.
Why, when only slightly lowered, can your car not get towed from any factory point? I legitimately want to know because my Cav was dropped, my Neon way back in the day was dropped and kitted(and you KNOW a Neon got towed!), and my MR2 is dropped and kitted and I don't see any issues.....

No factory point in front, and rear you could use rear beam I guess if it was easy to get to...
Much easier this way.
Why does your car break down so much that you need to constantly have tow hooks on it?
I don't understand this tow hook fad. It just looks like you buy crap parts and break down a lot.
I've been driving for almost 15 years and only ever needed to be towed half a dozen times.
Its not a problem of how many times it breaks down it comes down to when or if it brakes down the front or rear wont get ripped up even more by the line getting loaded.
If its in the snow in a ditch its much easier to attach if its already on etc
Fix your exhaust....and lose the tow hooks :p
Looks good to me other then those things. Nice e36 too

Why don't you just admit that they are on there because YOU like the way YOUR car looks with them on there. You might get made fun of by people but its your car....you making your excuses like you are about them is only digging a hole....then the post on GMSC is just bull@!#$.
Hey I can see the tow hooks. I would rather run tow straps as they are better in every way, can be hidden, and are actually required by some sanctioning bodies. I will have at least front tow straps once I have the money for them. My heat exchanger got all bent to hell by the ramp truck guy from the hoist line. He also put the hooks on my lower control arms with couldnt have been good for them. They're only 40 bucks.

Among those other great products he makes that you so kindly listed, he makes quick disconnects so you can remove those tow-hooks without tools and quit with the bulls
hit
.
Only one person I've seen actually use those, and amazingly he tracked his car, lost complete control of it, and totaled the damn thing out. I'm sure Nostradamus Powell saw that coming though.
