Hi Guys

Thought some of you may be interested in this.

I owen a 535d M sport and had the misfortune of hitting a flood and then hitting a tree

Well my pride and joy was wrecked but I was determined to get it back on the road.

Thankfully the chassis was not bent and no kinks were on the frame no bulkhead and the engine got away without a scratch.

I have rebuilt the drivers side suspension and I am not currently fitting a new inner guard to bolt the new wing to and to finish the engine bay then i will rewire the front of the car for PDC and fog lights etc.

I have essenstially bought the front end of another wrecked 535d and I am transplanting all the parts I need into my car. The worst bit is the airbags went off so had to replace the dash (work in progress) but I am getting along with that nicely.

The engine cranks and fires and then cuts out I am guessing the BST has stopped power to the fuel pump but will address that further down the line.

Here are some pics












Thanks for looking

 

looking forward to seeing its progress =)

 

Thanks Man I love that car too much to let it die plus I have a mod list I want to do to it lol. I went a bit mad with my air chissel last night getting the old bent guard out so hopefully will have some pics up soon of the new stuff going in

 

Oh my gosh.. I had my front bumber broken too since my friend drived my car and it hit little bit to hard snowbank and now it's needs to be replaced..

But try to get your e60 fixed properly mate

 

Hope she rides the same cuz it looks like a hard hit man! GL tho brother!

 

very hard hit but the suspension has been completly rebuilt using genuine BMW parts as well as a new subframe which fitted in perfectly with no alignment problems whatsoever so that is a good sign so hoping it will be okay that and the fact there is no structural damage so hopefully I will be okay

 

Subscribed. If you have the means and the skill go for it! I wish I have those. Sorry about the accident. Hoping to see some progress pics.

 

Got the new guard offered up today just waiting to be welded within the next week so shouldnt take too long test fitted all the panels that need to go on and they line up perfectly so that is a good result. After this new dash and airbags in redo any broken wiring then get the lights in and we are good to go

 

Ready for paint

Missing a bumper clip so it is not fitted on the drivers side but picked one up today so will have it fitted tomorrow plus new dash and airbags will be in on sunday

 

Why do you have your bumber and hood white since the car is blue ?
