E46 M3 with GTR Hood and CSL Bumper - Jezebel's new look

I have never liked the GTR bonnet, it dumbs down the car for me and makes it feel cheapy... but thats my opinion and preference.

However on a black car it looks the best that I have seen it, its more subtle. The CSL bumper looks amazing though, and after 2003 all m3's should have been made with this bumper haha.

Lets hope you can get it to look like OEM fitment, these aftermarket hoods never fit properly and can be a real ball ache to fit correctly. Looks awesome nonetheless.:thumbs:

I've always thought of the E46 M as a work of art in stock form and you'd need to be very selective with any cosmetic mods. That being said, I think your taste is impeccable Crash and you've managed to improve on an already stunning car :thumbs:

As posted - I'm sure it'll find its way to magazine covers soon :inlove:

Thanks guys. I really appreciate all the comments. It's a look I really wanted for a long time and I'm glad I finally got it. Some adjustments were needed to be done to get the hood to align right. It was a ballache as Gizmo stated. Oh, and regarding the colour, she is Carbon Black...

Fitting it, is a "ballache" to say the least....

We are still fiddling with the alignment.

But yea, for sure it absolutely looks the part....

The fibreglass is very pouris though, and quite frankly the first coat of paint looks crap.

So we have actually done it again, this time with the panel sealed, so results should be far better, she will be ready tomorrow crash

That CSL bumper came out frikken well, with the fit being near or = OEM...
