E46 M3

Recommended Posts

Eibach springs to go with the Koni's - only driven 50km, but it actually feels like it rides better(?) than with OEM springs. Definitely looks better. CSL ride height target.

Also new spec gearbox oil from @HELLBM - smoother shift is nice, 

~192km

  • New windscreen
  • New (painted) steering wheel cowl

Eibach / Koni is the combo for sure. Should have done it years ago. Rides better than ever, perfect height IMO.

E46 M3s have never looked so good, especially when compared to the wave of recent M3 M4 models.

Obviously the CSL's have an influence, but from side on, it's surprising how similar the E46 is to the 1M from the b-pillar back.

E46 is still prettier.

1M has some nice angles, but the front has nothing on the clean styling / headlights of a E46 M3

Damn that looks good! I miss that silhouette 😥 

What springs did you go for again? Looks nice and low

It’s got Eibachs and Koni shocks. Ride is better than (worn out) stock. 
‘stance’ is perfect IMO. Still practical for daily use.

Tried the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Black Liquid Polish posted here by @GorGasm the other week. Pretty impressed and would recommend too. The problem with most "Sio2" LSP's is they bead so much that when a black car dries you get bad water spots. I actually think older style sealants/waxes are better at sheeting the water off. This one didn't seem to "spot" too bad though. Have just topped it up with this, so see how it goes.

Polished tips (but only went to the visible line inside - I'm not OCD! 😂)

Looks great, as does the garage floor!

Must say, I’m not missing the dark car maintenance but damn, when they are clean they look amazing 👌

China sent me the wrong colour! (yellow). I have another shipment coming and they said it would have replacement black. It's 1/4 the price of actual Swisstrax. 

What's the dream solution ? Dark grey? 🤣

Damn, car is looking great.

Sometimes wonder if I should have got an E46 M3 instead of the old jalopy.

'Morimoto' LED fogs

I bought ebay ones, but they keep fogging up - so just decided to go all in on these.
