Ok so ,
Trans service ,we can do that
Remove /replace bumper ,we can do that
Interior lightbulbs ,well there are a lot of them too many for one post so which ones ?
Rattles ,I can post the fixes I have found thus far but because rattles are very difficult to diagnose as it is I ave to think how to best write that one .
Engine swap/clutch swap ,sure but why swap engines on CL .The clutch is a huge piece of work for the average DIY person so I will leave that alone for now .
5AT to 6MT conversion .The parts cost alone makes this prohibitive add to that I have never tried it .
FWD to RWD conversion with hammer and screwdriver ,easy ...............use hammer and screwdriver as a tool to open wallet .Go to local BMW dealer buy an M3 post photo as proof of purchase and bragging rights .
Fuel filter replacement ,we can do that .
Twin Turbo ,see comments about FWD to RWD but buy an M5 instead .
Coilovers springs sways ,some of this is already done and archived the rest we can do .
Crank pulley ,we can do that
Paddle shifters or button shifters .The idea is simpl even the electrics are simple .Scooter and I talked about this at length .I ended up buying a VW so I never got past the sketches part .
How to bribe a tech???????I can post on that seperately LOL

Well i'll be posting them here in the car talk section it is the moderators that actually set up the various sections of the forum and what goes into those sections .Actually there are a whole bunch of people that write useful articles here on DIY stuff .Have a look in the archives to read some of the excellent things in there .

MODS PLEASE MAKE A DIY SUBTOPIC.
IF all the DIY was archived into a subtopic, everyone can access everything they can do to a Cl quick and easy. Im really interested in footwell lighting by the way, but itll prob be too hard for me to do.
