Stuff like that makes you wish you could track people down and hang them by their genitals! | | | 03-10-2014, 06:33 AM | #55 | Member Join Date: Aug 2010 Location: Denver, Co Posts: 49 | I fixed my window today, or at least I thought I did. It broke within hours. Gonna need a new regulator for sure. Question for you guys: Is it a problem if the window tracks are glued onto the window crooked? When my window was busted, I had a glass company come out and fix the drivers window. I guess the tech glued it in at an angle because of the bent regulator? Do I need to re-glue, or will a new regulator do the trick? | | | 03-11-2014, 01:06 AM | #56 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: SF bay Posts: 183 | Swaped over the nose panel from my M3..

Had a friend weld it up last week and just finished putting everything back together in the car tonight. __________________ 1997 318ti 5-speed Moreagrün 1996 318ti auto Hellrot (retired) | | | 03-17-2014, 01:47 AM | #60 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2010 Location: Roanoke, VA Posts: 472 | Had a buddy of mine who is a master welder & fabricator fix my ti. The part of the frame where the C clamp bolts to for the front sway bar rusted out on the passenger side. Hear its common for e36's. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
