I can take some pics tomorrow when I go out to the track. I bought some plastic windows from a UK company to which I affixed some small aluminum C channels with double sided tape. They do an okay job of keeping out rain should I need to have the car outside. But they are very flexible and don't seal well if you hit them with a stream from a water nozzle. My garage mate, who also has an E36, just bent some aluminum hooks that he attached to the same window glass he removed from his doors. His removable windows seal much better, so those are the ones I use when washing the car. If I had it to do over again, I'd skip the plastic windows and just buy some glass from a junkyard.

Small update: The V3 is a very nice wing, although the end plates are a bit dull (see above pics). I refinished them in acrylic, and while the finish looks much nicer, they look a bit undersized on such a substantial wing. I cut some new end plates from aluminum using the same profile as the original end plate but extended downward another couple inches.

After powder coating, they look great.
