Conversion of E28 535i to M535is

[BDK]

Not to add fuel to the fire here but

The side skirts don't mount with any additional mounts. There are extra mounts for the jacking points that need to go on.

No additional mounts, but there are about 8 holes to be drilled/side for the holes for the screws the hold the side skirts on....

and don't forget the jacking point extensions, I guess that is what you mentioned above....


You know since my M535i is on a rotisserie, I should take detailed pics of all the differences I spy between the Mtech car and say the wrecked M5 car I have...

the front bumper mounting area is quite different...

Here are some pics of one of my favorite Delphin euro cars...
I love that color when it is in good shape...

Your car is really nice BTW....
I would go this route before an Mtech Kit conversion but that is just my 2 cents.....

I know this is a really old post but, I just want to call out all the guys saying there's no such thing as a M535is. They absolutely do exist. I just purchased one yesterday. And if there's any doubters out there. I can take a send the pic of the badge on the trunk lid. Can't help with the parts differences though. Mine needs complete restoration and it's missing a few parts lol

Count me as a doubter and I've been around these cars since they were new. I'd love to see our substantiating photos but not just of the badge. How 'bout the interior, the VIN label, etc. Thanks!

I’m just looking to learn some stuff about E28s.

Hey man. No need to be a wet blanket. Let's see what our man has to offer. I've also been around these cars since they were new and if there's one thing I've learned, it's never to shun an individual who claims to know more than the average bear. I mean, look at @Duke as an example.

A worthy addition to this old thread. The new discussion may enlighten all of us to this rare model of the fine E28 series.

I can't even guess as to all the additional options this machine will have loaded on to the chassis and on the build sheet located under the rear seat usually attached to the passenger side support bar of the seat bottom.

Looking forward to this getting a lot better and some all new info.

He asked, I answered. Yes, let's see what he has to offer. That's all I asked for. No need to pee the bed about it!

Yes, let's see what he has to offer.

This forum has major roadblocks to that by making picture posts a bit more difficult. Easy to do it once you have the off board host set up and figure its procedure out to post here.

We all know what we are going to see and beardedbmrguy states what it is, an M badge added to the number string.

Looking forward to the final resolution on this one.
