E46 is looking clean. Are you going to tint her up?

And what neighborhood is that?? Dogpatch? Potrero?

The body isn't the best, but I got it for a deal I couldn't pass up on. Inner mission district.

Added the BMW roof rack for the mountain bike. Super easy to install and remove.

Very nice. I would've totally gone for a 330ci ZHP as a daily before they became cool and got way too expensive or abused.
I had a 6 speed 330 ZHP sedan prior to purchasing my current daily (F10 535i) and it was a great car.

Not using the nav much but with extra time on the hands and no other project I updated the chart. Guess 2021 will be around shortly but what the heck. Like always great help to be found on the forums!

Wrapped my hood vents and side markers Gloss Black. Ended up looking pretty good. Also, put new hood struts in and gave her a bath.

Swift springs, spacers, and painted bumper reflectors should be here this week.

Took her out for some fun. First time at Laguna today with the e93. Not the best time 1:54 with lifting by the sound booth (93.5db, 90db day). It sure was hell of a lot of fun though! Mods are only eibach springs.

Fitted cobra nogaro seats to the e90, shed roughly 80lbs from the car during the process.

Still need to get some verified 60-130 numbers with the new setup, but after driving the car with the new seats and new shifter, Ive fallen in love again with it.

Question.
Sound level was 93.5db with stock exhaust?

Looking good. I just wrapped mine with 3M CF vinyl, but kinda wish I went the gloss black route!

Did you have trouble removing the side marker vent trims? I can't even get mine off!

Oh yea. There was so much caked up grime in there. Scraped at it with a box cutter then ended up breaking one tab. Luckily they are pretty much press fit and the one tab holds it in very well.

Great find. I was debating trying to make these myself with molded parts but the cost of doing it just wasn't worth it unless I could sell a few hundred. Glad someone in China did it instead. Someone should probably just contact the seller and buy a bulk load of them if the quality matches the pictures - cause their photos on the car are definitely just the OEM buttons, the type spacings are clearly different.
