    finally done, 5 lug, m52tu, big brakes titansiler...

    clean install:

    5-lug + big brakes:


    had to use lots and lots of bondo to get the desired shape:



    hehehe.. looks like i'm out of the e30 scene guys.. i've owned 6 e30s (318is, 324td/touring,318is/eurospec/325is,325ic and a 325i) over a span of 6-7 years. I've learned pretty much all i know about cars from working on these german bricks. One day i'll pick one up again and have some more fun (but with e30s soon dropping into mobile tradition looks like the cheap fun is gone for good)


    anyways, it's been real.

    Very nice. At first I thought it was a e30. Are those stock wheels? kinda look like Mille II's.

        Good choice! Is it an '00 323i?

        E46's are excellent cars-I have owned three so far and have loved each one. Very reliable, very solid build quality, great refinement, but still drives and handles like a BMW.

        I would put some sportier springs and shocks on it, and maybe install the ZHP front and rear bumpers and sideskirts.

                    So you even skipped an entire generation 3-series to make up for all the E30's u''ve had

                          You'll be happy with the E46. I love my E46 (2001 330i). She's pretty much stock, and I plan on keeping her that way.

                            talked to one of the parts guys at work today. e30 91 body style goes mobile tradition in 4 years, convertible goes in 5. also parts prices dont increase that much. we compared old prices for 2002 parts vs. mobile tradition prices. they reflect maybe 5-10% which may have been inflation if anything
