Thanks man, its not for everyone. But i will say it looks so much better in person. The car rolling down the street, it just stands out from the rest of the other cars. Almost hard to do with your average e46 m3 (considering from a distance they look almost like every other 3series).

UPDATE:

Fog Light Replacements - Since my old ones are all chipped and hazed, i had to freshen up the look with new ones. Looks 10000x better. The downside is, now the chipped up front bumper/hood is more obvious with the new looking lenses lol.

Right out of the box

New vs Old


Also i was able to fix the o2 sensor issues. I've had a SES pretty much since buying the car last year. Now im able to get it inspected and registered. Huge monkey off my back lol. (that is if this code doesnt come back! fingers crossed).

Small update:

After hearing so much rave about the CDV delete I decided to remove mine as well. I did notice some jerky shifting at low gears which was very noticeable when i first moved from my Z to the M. After a while however i got used to it.

Anyway it literally took me 5min to remove (my car doesnt have the plastic cover). The C-clamp helped a lot, and i didn't even bleed my clutch (I know i should've). My first impression was, "ok i feel a difference, but whats all the hype about". The slight jerky feeling is gone and i felt that right away, but it's nothing major. I could have lived with the CDV, but maybe i just got used to it. Then again, the job was so easy why not.

CDV removed


I also noticed that my side emblems are hazed and blurred. After reading the thread about wetsanding them i went ahead and gave that a try as well.

It still doesnt look brand new, but much better than before. The before/after difference is a lot more noticeable in person. This is how it looked when im done, and i haven't even polished it up yet in this pic.

Before/After



As for the fog lights i recieved last week, the passenger side fogged up. Water for some reason is getting in. Im gonna contact the shop i ordered it from, hopefully they exchange it for me.

the lens on the aftermarket fogs probably isnt sealed properly.

Update: OEM LED Tail Lights, Chrome turn signal bulbs

-Got some chrome turn signal bulbs. I was a fan of the amber, but i thought i'd give this one a shot. Definately looks much cleaner in person
-And a bigger purchase, some brand new OEM led tail lights. Very happy with this purchase, makes a huge difference in the looks department.
