I think i prefer the elephants ears to the mouses ears :rofl:
The originals are slightly big but the ac's look too weak imo.
Great looking 3er mind......not a lover of the x wheels though just my opinion of course :thumbsup:
Also if your going for the black/dark look then the lower grills would look black aswell :thumbsup: again just imo ;)

Without sounding stalkerish, I recognise those pics.
Did you sell some bits of that car or another e46 a few years ago, via pistonheads?

Very nice car Raj - mirrors nice, CSL bumper nice, wheels just need to be bigger. But it's gone now so who cares! :rofl:

Hi Max,

I owned it a few years ago and I did use those pics when I advertised it on pistonheads and EvoT.
