It cracks me up how there is such a debate on the tails. big - sweet - small - sour. I always liked the smalls. Then I started looking on the forums, only to find I was one of the minority. LOL
Late Tails M3?

Not okay. I'm cool with guys that want to swap S50's and LS1's into M3's, but you just don't mess with such a critical part of the body work. That doesn't even look like the rear of an M3 anymore. On top of that, it's also got the shaved rear roundel, one of my other pet-peeve E30 mods.Comment

The shaved roundel looks good on that car. Good bye BMW advertisement, hello Benson & HedgesSan Diego BMW repair -> Jake @ www.littlecarshop.com Great guy :up:Comment

Well, on such cars liek that where it is run by sponsors, then its cool for them to shave the roundels, its more of an advertisment for the companies not BMW. But even if I were I purist, the late tails are ugly.Comment

Shaved Roundels are a nice addition, IMHO.
I'm not hip on the LM tails on M3...Not only the originalities' sake, but the skinny tails have a more classic almost mean look to them compared to the late's.Trevor Ely

I took that pic, and that car is all but a race car!
shaving the rondels here in germany is/ was really big. Once again, I will say it. Here in germany, driving a bmw is like driving a chevy everyone has/ can have one- so small details to seperate the cars are always good.Comment

Jon, you may be right about the trunklid, but most FG and CF replica trunklid/hoods have Roundel provisions.Comment

I think it looks good, but I've always gone with the saying
"As long as YOU like it, who cares what THEY say?" A huge
+1 for the guy to chop up his M3
I agree with Josh though, I don't think the Roundels should
be cut of (but that's my opinion), I think model designations
should go out the window. The only thing on the back of my
Subaru is the AWD logo, makes it snazzy!「 Terror from the Rising Sun 」Comment

If the car is salvage, who cares... but for the love of all that is holy, DONT make irreversible "upgrades" to good clean cars!!

I don't like large tails on any E30. I think they are too big for the car. And yes, I have a '91, so STFU if you think I'm biased because of my '87.Comment
