2001 BMW e46 325 to M3 conversion

[nickrallye]

Those lights. That bonnet. That exhaust. What were you thinking??

[whssyamaha]

Why the fuck would you do this. Just buy an M3 you poser! If you ever came to

One of our BMW track days I would make you turn around and leave as soon as I noticed how badly you bastardized that car.

[marasani]

Needs E46 M3 wing mirrors...

[TheJasper1406]

it still doesn't look like an m3... just a ruined e46

[THEAPEX04]

Damn you did a nice job!

[caseycharle321]

props on the fender work.

[jmenrico]

Get the CSL wheels and complete the car.

[sher854]

Looks great but need get the CSL wheels

[Seb4ik]

nice, but

how much did u spent on this? wasnt it easer to buy one>? xD

[kypck1]

@Seb4ik m3 is $16-$30k his car total is $6k with all modes. and its 2.5l engine 30mpg on hwy, m3 is 17mpg.

[Seb4ik]

@kypck1 i just cant get it) and its my opinion about it...fake look, what will be the reaction when civis SI is gonna smoke u) i got've got x5 4.4i and i had 325i before... ti russkii?

[kypck1]

@Seb4ik da ya russkii.. 

[kypck1]

@kypck1 i dont race

[derwinmicheal]

@kypck1 a civic si couldnt beat my 323,

[supra1722]

@kypck1 did you also put in the M3 suspension? btw, nice project looks cool... i thought of doing this with a 4dr sedan 325i since there weren't any E46 M3 sedans..

[MrBarrett13]

Good job,but y do that when you can still tell it's not an m3. Just get an

M3!

[BMWFTW123]

you forgot wing mirrors!

[princepersia1]

Looks good but the rear pipes are not quads, that's a give away.

[lewislennon]

OMG,u guys awesome!hahaha

[iysisrose]

GREAT JOB, MUCH RESPECT, REMEMBER TO TAKE THEM YELLOW SIGNAL LIGTS OFF THE FENDER AND REPLACE THEM WITH CLEAR ONES....

[greekcs]

sitll needs sideskirts, matte black window trim, m3 mirror, interior, engine, LSD, Tranny......

[nikothecrazygreek]

thats awsome but how much did it cost?

[JerryFromNewJersey]

Looks great except for those LED lights on the headlights..big fail there, get some Angel eyes instead.

With changing the to the M3 rear bumper did you have to do that extra work to the rear fenders ? And with the dual exhaust how did you fit it over the spare tire ? Thanks.

[thepaddonman]

@617k122 im wanting to no the same question i have a sedan model and am half way through the changes have done front already now just want to do the rear but dont no how to fit that exhaust around the spare wheel unless you have to remove it i dont no. Any help anyone ?

[617k122]

@thepaddonman For the research that I've done on converting it to the m3, 330s 325cs w.e You do have to remove the spare tire area because there is no room for the exhaust i was thinking, If the M3 bumper drops down lower you can fit it under the spare tire area, But 1 thing I'm looking at it custom bends to have the Style of the m3 exhaust but thats about it, Other then that go with the quad M5 style exhaust it fits our 3 series.

[dolebanana12]

@thepaddonman you cut out the spare tire well, or just do a custom looking exhaust or use m5 if you have the money, otherwise personally id cut out the tire well,, its easy enough to do

[tturb0b0y]

Wow u saved ur self some cash very beuatyfull conversion

[lilikgreek]

very nice ... I'm impressed that you made a e46 looks more aggressive, not everyone could do it,see my car on my channel... I think we need to mount both M3 style side mirrors to more harder look.

[technohunger]

good job man..seksi car made by your own hands...its the best feeling

[bryanfarr1]

Amazing job dude, I have a 2001 325Ci as well.... that roof looks so much like a carbon fiber roof, I was wondering if you could give me the paint code. Also was it hard to get around the spare tire in the back for the dual exhaust?

[pro6667]

Look great!!!

[kypck1]

@pro6667 Thank you.
