With an engine rebuild and that turbo of yours its going to be seriously fast, but thats a given I guess :)

lol, Sankekur ! ye.. i'm still pondering about the turbo.. might just keep it daily driver.. but ya, my plans allways change lol.

Gizmo !! lol, I definitely wanna do the M3 kit on this car.. wanna use the original M3 front bumper tho, and get a pair of M3 and facelift coupe side fenders and modify them with mine to fit so it can line up the front M3 bumper and to be able to use the predator headlights from the facelift coupe.. I think it will look really hot. won't be doing this myself tho.. well take it to my uncle. wanna try get a rear M3 bumper also.. but not sure what to do with the sides at the back to get it to line up with the rear numper.. might need side body panels from an M3. Also wanna do the rear CSL trunk lid.. Emulate a 4door M3 :) .. that would be pretty.. but we'll see.. I have to find all those parts first..... what u rekcon ?

I could get a csl front in the meantime ..

DUDE, methinks that if you wanna mod this car, just add the individual kit. it looks sweet now, and im sure that it would look sweet with the mods youre thinking about, but im sure that it will look best with just the individual kit.

anyways, just my 350meticals. to each their own.

lol, yeah I like the csl bumper, but what irritates me about it is that it has no spotlights... thats why I want the original M3 bumper ...

see here, this guy did EXACTLY what I wanna do ...
WIDE rear bumper with wide side body, and original m3 front bumper with modified side panels in front... and M3 hood.

execpt I would not use M3 wheels tho.

hmm, but I dunno. maybe its better to just do facelift individual kit

you know what. I changed my mind.

If you can get the car to look like those, i's say go for it.

It looks epic.

You have to do it... The individual kit looks really nice, but I have never seen it and gone wow. Where as that blue m3/330i 4 door majobby looks really really amazing.

definitely go with that setup (if you have the money for it, cos it looks like an expensive bit of surgery).

If you can get it to look like that, then youll have one of the best looking bmws out there.

I would definitely do it to my car if i had the money and a 330i (it would be mighty silly to do that to a 318i as id get my ass whipped by everyone wanting to race me :excited:

im sure it will look good. Dang, youre a very luck person to have the cars that you do. good luck with the cars.

also, im sure you know. dont take any half measures with your car. either do the best or sell it, as it would be really sad to see you stuck on the roadside screaming and ranting about the car problems whilst the car looks sweet( :cursin: ).

Make it completely reliable mechanically and electrically, then work on the body. Otherwise, its an awesome car :thumbsup:
