May this avatar always remind me that I came in 2nd place in the Cen-Tex Spring Shoot Shotgun Battle, and lost to Kuffs and his Semi-Auto.


Clunk in the back of an E36? Check your rear shock mounts. Either peel back the lining in you trunk on both sides to take a look, or if they're really bad you can see where the rear shocks have punched into your trunk and deformed the trunk liner. Ask me how I know.

Looks stock. I kind of regret buying new ones. Oh well.

Yep, my advice would be to just keep what you've go on there.

My driver's side window trim was peeling and rusted to hell so I figured I'd replace it. The trim itself is easy to replace, but the old-rear end door seal would not seal properly against the new trim piece--I would have this really annoying whistle above about 40 MPH. I ended up having to buy a new door seal to go with my purely cosmetic piece.

It was pretty easy. The car drives so freakin' good now. I still have the clunk. It happens a lot less often and it's a lot less severe. I'll probably just ignore it since this car is supposed to be a beater. It drives so well otherwise that it's hard to care.

I didn't see you mention it--have you checked your RSMs yet?
