Car of the Year contender no doubt!!!!

I like this a lot, its just the wheels that I'm not a fan of, too much for me.

[M.Burroughs]

What's here that will make purists cry?

It's a nice car. I like the finish on the wheels - unique and it looks good. Would rather see the effort go in to something a bit more supportive of the automotive aftermarket though.

[DinanDave]

Wow nice to see something different!! Interesting exicution on the wheels

[Kyle_Eagleton]

Love.

[Wagon]

Wow.. that is cosmetically perfect.

I wouldnt have done it to an m3 though, it must handle like ass compared to standard

[Live Fast]

I think it would look a lot cleaner with the wheel all white. But overall it's a great car, nevertheless.

TiTs! original. Props.

Thanks guys!

Love the fitment, not sold on the wheels. I'd love them to bits if they were all white, or if they were all gold. It's excellently executed though

Thanks! I have had gold centers on a previous set of wheels, as well as all white, but I wasn't sold on either.. This current look did it for me

looks great! i don't like the wheels but you are rocking the hell out of them.

Thanks Jesus!

...car is perfect.

except...the gold.

People in this thread are being really cool and tactful about not liking the gold on your wheels, and that's really awesome, I just can't understand what's not to like!

Yeah, I actually thought people would be a little more harsh haha

looks good to me. i like the front lip a lot. whats the story with the suspension? Im curious as to how she looks when you turn the wheel. or is this on air..

Thanks man. I'm on Airrex bags and V2 management. But, this is where I sat before air when I was on H&R coils (different tire & camber specs back then):

That Stance is mean! Good job.


I like the wheel choice but I am not a fan of the stickers, I think that they would look cool with just the gold bolts.

No worries, that would look pretty cool actually.

im surprised they're that narrow. they look wider (rears) in the pics. looks great.

They do look wider than they actually are haha.

Looks great

Looks sick. I like what you did with the wheels just not sure on the gold. That's vinyl wrap right? IMO try a chrome vinyl or black chrome.

Thanks! Yep, just vinyl, it doesn't look super great but it accomplished the look I was going for

Just dropping in to let you know that your car is awesome, I love the wheels. Well done.

looks amazing.... all you guys with E46's recently are killing me

Thanks!

Love this car, makes me want to bag my car.

I remember seeing this for sale when I was buying my car, i remember how clean the paint is!

Haha, do it Yep, I decided to keep it and dump another 8K into it instead. I'm glad I didn't sell it.

[Live Fast]

As said by tons of others, love the car, **** the wheels. But definitely a good execution on the wheels, even if it doesn't work IMHO.

Why thank you!

Yeh thats sitting really awesome.

So then I saw white knee high boots and then I saw the black E39, any pics of that you know?..

Haha. That's my girl, and the black E39 is my friend Paul Bruney's

So sick. I'm a fan, gold and all.

Thanks

nice hearts

Thank you <3

I really like this, gold and all!

Thanks! I think car of the year is quite a stretch, but thanks nonetheless.

Haha, well Mike; JDM inspired wheels, air ride (or even anything over a 1" drop for that matter), shiny gold, carbon fiber for cosmetic instead of weight reduction, excessive negative camber, stretched tires yada yada yada. At least, that's what BMW guys keep bitching to me about.

And thanks - what exactly are you wanting to see? It might already be part of what I have planned for the next stage this spring

Wow nice to see something different!! Interesting exicution on the wheels

Love.

Thanks guys. It actually handles better than my H&R coils.. no lie. The Airrex system is a threaded shock all the way so it allows me to have a ton of adjustment for placing of the bag, and they are also 12-way dampening adjustable. It's all about knowing what air pressure to run in the bags too for optimal performance. I was pretty surprised at how they handle, to say the least.

Very awesome! Been a fan of your cars going back to the mk2. This setup is definitely out of the ordinary for e46Ms, but you nailed it! I'm also interested to see it on some more legit wheels, but you did a good job of making these interesting.

[Chillest]

Love it, unique for sure.

[M.Burroughs]

Frankly, legitimate wheels. Here's hoping.

Thanks buddy! Haha, which MKII? I've built 22 of them so far haha. If you mean my PVW Coupe, I actually still have it sitting in my shop, but it looks a bit different now



Do you still have the Atlas 4 door?

Love it, unique for sure.

Thanks!

Frankly, legitimate wheels. Here's hoping.

Well then, you just might be pleasantly surprised...
