That same week that everything was getting put on i managed to find OEM Hella foglights with zkw brackets at the local scrap yard along with Hammon Kardon tweeters out of a 4 door e36 again paid maybe 12-13$s.

My light set up is 6K HIDS with 6K Plasma LEDs.
Dont have pictures of my LEDs but they are very bright, but as for LEDs i retrofitted High Beam H1 bulbs into the foglight housing.

Here are the bulbs i retrofitted

So after A long 2 days my OEM roof rack came in!! I had to do some drilling and fitting of the side skirts and put the bumper and the fog lights in...


I also redid my wheels in something close to an oem color but with a greyish blue metal flake...


End result was this.......


Here is a pick with the lights on just so you can get an idea of what they look like and the brightness

I came back down from orlando and after that i was having oveheating problems...Turned out to be that my radiator had a hairline crack somewhere honestly didnt care to find it!! So i bought off of another .org member a radiator and it has solved my problem! I also bought rear black leather seats and 1/4 panels along with a black headliner.

One day as i usually do i was browsing thru craigslist and found a set of staggered alpina wheels for 75$s they are 16x7 and 16x8 i more than happily drove down and picked them up...


within the week a buddy of mine came across a set of wheels he thought i should take a look at, so he messaged me a pic and sure enough with the awesome luck i have stumbled across a set of ACS Type 1s... By FAR the best deal i have gotten ever i paid a measly 400$s for the set only bads is 1 lip is partially bent..


Soooo in less than a week i had bought 2 sets of wheels for less than the price of 1 full nice set...

It was a while until i had done anything else with tila but i then decided to upgrade the sound system even more. I bought for the front and rear JL audio TR series speakers i believe they are 120w RMS, Along with upgraded vocals I bought a JL 4Ch 500w Highs and mids AMP. Still on the audio set up i bought 2 Kicker L7 10' Subs and a 1200W 2 channel bridgable amp by powerbass. I also switched from my alpine headunit (total garbage) to a pioneer headunit that came with AUX and USB support. Also managed to get a power acoustik equalizer for 30$s.

Only picture i really took of the audio stuff, but if you are interested in my setup i will post more pictures.

Unknowingly when i went to go take the ACS' apart they needed a 10PT 8 and 10mm socket!! :'( So i hopped on google and searched and searched and came acroos thes LASER 1/2in impact socket for i believ 16 or 18$s. Both came shipped for 32$s flat.

After waiting about 4 days they arrived!!


And so began the long and rigorous process off taking theses beautiful wheels apart!!
After 2 hours and a case of beer later they were apart and best of all not 1 stripped or damaged bolt!!

I also made my job a little harder by not getting the tires taken off but i managed to get the tires off.

Now a few months went by didn't really do much and then this happened

Guibo failure to the fullest and with NO signs of failure approaching. Left me stranded not even 5 blocks from home at 1 in the morning. :'(
Luckily CSB and nothung was damaged when this happend


After waiting for 2 hours i finally got home and this is what was left of my beloved Tila


After about 2 weeks of procrastination and not wanting to touch my car i finally replaced the guibo took less than an hour and i didnt have to drop the exhaust.


But while Tila was down i did a little tinkering with my fogs and took them apart and removed the shield in front of the bulb and made them into black housing fogs!

Really LOVE that car, minus that stickered lip and the Alpina badges (as Alpina never sold E36 Compact builds )
Other than that, the car has made a remarkable progress already...

And that ridiculously cheap set of AC Schnitzer wheels that you found is just unfair... People would pay an arm and leg for these here...

Yea i plan on redoing the bumper again and plastdiping the front lip black along with other trims. I also want to see if i can get the old bike motorsports emblems made i love the design. As for the wheels i think anywhere someone would pay an arm and a leg for the AC Schnitzers!
