In this thrilling episode of StanceWorks, the team unveils a long-awaited upgrade for the E36: the new BBS e87 wheels. These wheels, arriving ahead of schedule, promise to inject new life into the car that has been languishing in the shop. With plans to mount the wheels, clean the engine bay using dry ice, and tackle other tasks, the team is gearing up to hit the streets once again. The neglected engine bay undergoes a remarkable transformation through dry ice blasting, revealing a fresh and rejuvenated look that matches the car's overall aesthetic.
Moving on to the interior, a new BMW slick top Coupe M3 headliner is installed, showcasing impressive metalwork from a previous roof reskin. However, challenges arise when trying to match the pillar covers with the headliner due to damaged tabs, adding a touch of drama to the project. Transitioning to the wheels, the BBS e87 centers are meticulously polished and paired with rim halves, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for spacers. The team's attention to detail shines through as they assemble the wheels with new hardware from BBS, culminating in a pristine finish that elevates the E36's appearance to new heights.
With ceramic coating applied to protect the wheels and Falcon tires mounted with precision, the moment of truth arrives as the team finally gets to see the new wheels on the E36. The early arrival of the wheels adds an element of surprise and excitement to the project, setting the stage for a thrilling test drive after a quick alignment. The end result is a stunning transformation that embodies the team's dedication to perfection and their unwavering passion for automotive craftsmanship.
