Our Story: The Build Of An E30 M3

To start off, this is a build between a father and two sons with a combination of ideas. My dad has always been into the E30 M3 along with my brother and I. When Bimmerfest 2011 came around, he decided to pick up a stock 1990 Alpine White E30 M3 in Utah with 135k on the clock. On to the build!

The Norcal caravan back home from Bimmerfest and we ended up running into my dad on the way back home.



It was obvious the car needed attention so I proceeded to a full detail









Who likes packages? OZ Futura 17x8.5 & 17x9.5 et13







Period correct Recaro N'Joys w/ custom brackets, OEM Hella Smoked Euro Smileys, Euro bits, and a dtm adjustable wing











Dashboard was cracked so my cousin and I tore out and installed a crack-free dash





Was able to get ahold of Brand New startec taillights. OEM vs. Startec. Another addition, vanity plates "DTMBRED"







Fast forward to a week before Mfest VI....Complete G/C Coilovers arrived and wheels are mounted!
