thank you all for the kind comments even after so long.
Fadhil,
Go to USJ, put Summit on your left. turn left at the traffic lights, then turn right at the next traffic lights, go straight, pass 1 set of traffic lights and then turn left at the 1st left. go all the way and the road will lead you to the left. follow along the row of shops and at the 3rd row of shops you should see lots of cars. look for Mike and tell him Tom reffered you.
Jeembo,
to get the used original M3 panels, i'm not sure if 5K is enough. but you have to keep on the lookout for them.
But set your budget higher and you can order them new from eurocarmotorsport.

yes, they are Auras.
I didn't really prepare the body for the paintjob. It's a 1989 E30 325i with the galvanised body. Couldn't find rust anywhere except for some slight areas at inside of the air con duct areas near the wipers.
Nope, no sound insulations done.. no autofoam too. i'll probably have it autofoamed up when it comes out of the workshop.
and the sound insulations too.
