Stance Is Everything…. It's all about how it sits

Not sure why it took me this long to do a Theme Tuesday dedicated to e36s but it did, so without further adieu here is something for the e36 lovers. Warning you will see lots and lots of style 5′s in this post, but that’s not a bad thing.

I also included a few local e36s in the mix.

Local Boys

Let’s start things off with a few of the local e36 guys who are doing things right

The Infamous Project e36

Beauty looking e36 I saw at the Bimmer experience in Mississauga

Buddy of contributing photographer Keven Soldo

This car started as a non M but was completely converted to M status, it was recently sold

The lips on this drop are crazy

Doogee is no stranger to this blog

Still for sale!

This owner of this car was cocky as hell and claimed the lowest e36 in Ontario for awhile...

He was shortly, more humbly dethroned by this gentleman

Out of towners

As usual cars from all over the great internet

Liftin

Don't always need an M bumper to look good, more people should rock BBS RCs

Red on gold will never get old

Green on green isn't bad either, really like this one

Waiting for these wheels to reappear on Seans ride

It's a damn shame that this car got destroyed, damn shame

F**in bomb

Tired of style 5s yet? No? Me either

This is rare, normally the white rims are dirtier than the car...

Jammed on M countours

Jon Sibal wad up

That’s it for now but ti fans don’t worry, I have started collecting pics for an e36ti Theme Tuesday all ready.

Long time readers of Stance Is Everything might remember a post awhile back of a local Black E36 slammed on style 5′s titled “This Is How It’s Done“.

In that post I mentioned that the car would appear here again and Doogee came back hard this season after spending the winter polishing his style 5s and tweaking a few other exterior bits.

The changes this year are subtle, Bosch headlights, the return of amber taillights, and the aforementioned polishing of the epic fitting style 5s. Work was done, and it was done well.

Polished the lips on these wheels really pops

Fitment remains epic

So glad warm weather is coming back

Amber tails replace last years clears

This is Doogees sig on max, it kills me

Once again e36 owners I hope you are taking notes, because this is beauty.

Chris Savard’s double now triple build The Infamous Project has been moving along ahead of schedule. The AC Schnitzer e36 is more or less complete, just awaiting a few final finishing parts, and the Mustang is next up for some mods followed by his Lightning. The e36 looks exactly like the rendering except for one minor detail, it’s actually lower!

The man behind the renderings actually thought that the height he rendered it was lower than Chris could actually realistically drop it.

Chris laughed at this and took it as a challenge, looks like Chris won.

The inital rendering

I've never seen someone match their wheels to their trim before works really well

E36s always tuck so hard in the rear

Notice that the splitter also matches the rims

Chris has just rolled his 5.0 into the shop so be follow updates on that at theinfamousproject.com.

Being Canada’s largest bmw community maxbimmer.com is known for having a few nice rides, however it’s been minute since someone on Max built up a simple, clean, low, e36. Doogee has been a max member for awhile now and every time he started a new thread with photos of his car I saved them for a future e36 Theme Tuesday. When he got a new set of wheels and spun his coil overs down I knew that this car deserved a post all to itself.

Doogee’s 328is has undergone a remarkable transformation over the last year or so. After being rear ended by a preoccupied young driver he took his car to one of the best shops in the city and got it repaired to essentially factory, if not better, condition.  At this point the car already had a few appearance and performance related modifications however the car really caught my attention when he pulled out his H&R sports and installed Bilstein PSS9s.

With an M bumpers, a new stance, Kosei K-1s, and a bunch of performance mods including: an M50 manifold, AA intake, Remus Exhaust, X brace, sway bars, and a reinforced sub frame it seemed like Doogee was just about done with this e36 modification wise and ready to make the jump to an m3 (some argue he might not actually notice a difference at this point).

That was until he found a set of oem style 5′s and lowered his car a bit more. His new look proves once again that not only are style 5′s one of the best oem BMW rims ever made (M parallels are another), but that you don’t need much more than subtle mods, clean paint, dope wheels and a perfect stance to look dope.

Being friends with a former black e36 owner I know how hard they are to keep clean

This is fitment.

It's pretty wild that we are in November and some areas still looks like fall

Real men rock amber corners

The body shop did miracles to this car, you can't tell it was ever hit

The side profile shows off just how serious this stance is, this car is perfect

While I should have posted this car multiple times before judging by Doogee’s sense of style, taste in mods, and photography skills this is not the last time you will see this car posted on stanceiseverything.com e36 owners take notes, this is how it’s done.
