E46 330 topaz blue project thread...

[danfisher]

So i bought this car completely standard as they come
Factory upgrade of the Harmon Kardon system and Xenon lights were the only good thing present as well as the beautiful colour (topaz blue)

Been a lot of work and tinkering to make the wheel and suspension set up fit but finally got it sitting nice (and practical!)

Wheel set up:
18" 3SDM 0.05'S
9.5J wide all round with 225/40/18 tyres
Helper springs on the coilies removed and 5/7mm shims with longer bolts

Full bodykit change to M3/M-sport (including M3 mirrors)
Complete M3 interior with carbon trims, M3 steering wheel
Smoothed front bumper with pressed plates on the rear
CCFL angel eyes installed
Chrome trim changed to gloss black
Headlight insert changed from silver to black

When i bought it...



And now...

Hey Dan, looking so much better! Looks like it could do with a spacer out back and coming down at the front?

[danfisher]

Yeah i cant space the back out anymore until i get my arches rolled, same with the fronts as well due to the width of the wheels
Not really many places around my area that do it, looking at £160 but im after a nice exhaust system first, priorities :P
