        Perfection.

        All around, I can't think of one single thing I like more than the other. All around just fantastic!

          Love it. Only thing I would do is a LTW spoiler and blackout grill. I find the blacked out grills on the m3 sedans looks so badass.

              Why is the plate not mounted in the center? Looks amazing though! Love the wheel fitment and color. Is the white hard to keep clean?

                  I do love the look of the LTW wing but I think it'd be a bit much for this car.

                  I like chrome kidneys on (all) BMWs though. :)

                  Haters! Haha. I just want to be "different" I guess.

                  White wheels actually aren't too bad to keep clean. I try to wash the car once a week anyway.

                    Must be a Cali thing ;) not a hater, just that is what EVERY ricer does on the east coast. I love the M3 even more since it is a 4 door. And your M is very different; clean, perfect ride height and wheel fitment. It is the slight tasteful mods that set you apart. Not weird placed plates! I loved this e36 when it had the 5spoke wheels, I love it even more now. Could be that I am used to seeing that plate trend here on ricer junk.

                    Does Cali require a front plate?

                        I see where you're coming from for sure!

                        Unfortunately we require a front plate and my local law loves to enforce it.

                        I know I know! :D That's kind of why I made the comment.

                        So far I absolutely love the tires! I actually think they grip better than the 235/40/17 BFG G Force Sport I had on the old wheels.

                          I just hate front plates, so I mount them all over the place. Mine is behind the bumper grille so it's really obscured.

                          I'm in love with the lux slats. IMO a center plate would take away from that on this car.

                            That looks great! I've wanted a 4dr alpine e36 m3 for a long long time.

                              That offset plate is not different. Its JDM and and I've seen it a ton on e36's.

                              If you think you love your car now, get some better tires and you'll love it even more. When I went from Kumho ecsta platinum LX to Yokohama S drives it was a night a day difference. I'm not saying get F1's but you have a nice everything else don't cheap one your cars only contact patch with the road.
                              I want a nice set of smoked MHW's (I know, get it line)
