Yeah. Cut away the part of the fender that the flare replaces, thus making a taller arch for the tire to travel up and down in.

Oh yes I definitely did that. lmao.

This e46 is going to look good any direction you go from here but if it were mine I'd leave it grilleless... You've got subtle bits of rawness throughout the body that all tie in together without being over the top. Again, just my lonely opinion.

I can understand what you mean but since I own the car I just see a bunch of un-finished pieces rather than a cool raw look haha.

haha really? Only reason there is no grills in is because they don't fit. I have to modify them and haven't gotten to that yet

I've been following your thread there as well.

keep it up buddy, I know this will look mean once your done. it has that "drifter" look right now,

Hey man

I wanna know more about these flares! Universal flares?!

Yessir, made by chelsea denofa the drifter

Did you cut the fenders before installing the flares? might free up a few cm of clearance.

i'd be bummed if my bimmer couldn't turn...you should fix that.

So wide and aggressive, god damn I am in love. The sans front grille/visible fan make the car for me.

I love this, love the flares, original. How much camber is it? It looks spot on.

Unsure about the camber measurements. Rear is just stock camber from being lowered. I installed camber plates on the front though a couple days ago. I can almost turn now with it being fender to rim lip level....









This is the max I can turn right now with it being this low. Any ideas?

I feel it a lot more without the roof racks.

Me too, but I use the racks to carry kayaks now and then so they are put to use

I love it... absolutely love it... but
its needs something, oh yea more power! boost or a s54 swap.? This looks is so aggressive (very superstreet mag) but it needs a mean power plant to go with it to be truly jaw dropping.

Thank you sir. I don't think boost would be worth the money on a 323i but I do hope to do a swap in the far future. It's way too expensive to think about doing now. I know next to nothing about motors but I was thinking LS1 swap since they make kits for the E46?

Front camber plates are being shipped so hopefully I can lower the front more. I'm also considering taking out the race land helper spring so I have the option of putting bumper on the ground if I want to.
