Nice Journal. Your feature in Speedhunters with the Work Meister made me purchase an M3. Keep up good work pare.

I really like your current hood set up, OEM with E9x vents. Might have to steal that down the road. Car looks great, nice journal.

It has been a pleasure watching your car evolve throughout the many years!

I really like the OEM Hood and E92 M3 vents. I wish there was an affordable CF version of that.

Seeing all these crazy E46 M3s makes me want to start getting some aero pieces for my car.........

^ Not to thread jack, but I like yours because of it's lack of aero parts. OEM looks so clean sometimes, and yours is quality under the skin!!
I do recall seeing some CF E9x hood vents when searching for them. OEM is around $70 and the CF ones (replacements for those cars, so they will work all the same for ours) were $300. I'll go OEM... when I get the CSL front. With the OEM/Euro bumper, ventless hood is cleanest IMO. OP's car pulls it off well, flows nicely.

Mini update:

Received my AGT side diffusers/extentions from Antreas today. Ordered them on 5/31, they shipped out on 6/5 and I received them on 6/12...not too bad a turn-around time. I opted for the fiberglass version as they were more affordable. Plus, I don't have any exposed CF pieces on my car.

Here's how they were packaged:

As you can see, they were wrapped up nicely. Took me a good few minutes just to unwrap this tamale.

Bubble-wrapped edges, foam inserts & ribbed for my pleasure...err, for added protection:

Quality seems to be good:

Test-fit shots:

They line up really well with the Hartge, so I'm happy about that. I plan to modify them just a tad so they don't stick out too far. The AGT rear undertray diffuser should be here by Friday, so I'll probably wait until then to fully prep and paint all pieces together. Should make for a fun weekend.

I'll be sure to update the thread once it arrives, and will wh0re this thread out even more when the everything is installed. Thanks for stopping by.

It does seem like the hartge lip is a perfect match for those skirts. Good job, can't wait to see it all come together

Looking forward to seeing everything installed. I wish that front lip was still around.

Excited to see. Where can you purchase these side diffusers?

KhanArt · Wed, Jun-13-2012, 03:31:58 PM

Very clean and well done! One of my top fav M3's

I absolutely love your M3. Your custom hood looks great and I can't believe how many wheels you've been through. Keep it up
