nice car, don't like the rims on it

[Court M3]

That thing looks sweet. BBS RS would set it off right

[M-technik-3]

Nice set of 15's or 16's. EU or RZ378's would look killer on it.

Looks nice, minus the aformentioned rims. Also, I don't think those are Mtech I skirts. Still looks pretty awesome, though.

They're 333i sideskirts. (M-tech 1 sideskirts, but they don't wrap up around the fenders as high as the standard m-tech 1 skirts).

[ZenkiOwns]

Car looks tits man.

Why is it that m car is the only one that got federalization markers. gahhhhhhhh

[M-technik-3]

They're 333i sideskirts. (M-tech 1 sideskirts, but they don't wrap up around the fenders as high as the standard m-tech 1 skirts).

M tech I 4 door skirts but they fit on coupes as well. 333i started as a South African exclusive then was back exported to UK.

They're pre 87 M-tec skirts, the extensions didn't come in till 87.

Not officially at least.
