Stupid m20's haha, try driving low with an m42 THEN you'll be thankful for a skid plate. Looks nice though.

I had a friend that told me you can cut the oil pan on the E30 , and reeweld it after WIll make it smaller so no probleme for lowering Think is the same thing they do on the E30 rally cars that are really low
The bad thing is you will work with 1 to 2 liters of oil and need to keep an eye on the oil every once in a will

I killed my old 95 m3 rack by scraping through it.
I had the spacers on top though so it cleared the m60 pan. I cut and raised the pan now so I could run the spacers on the bottom with the new e46 rack and that got it fairly out of the way.
