A guy I know put the LS Blue interior into his black E46 M3. It really worked and is very much something I'd consider if I ever find myself in possession of a black E46 M3.

It is badly modified. Plastic wide-arch kit, Morettes, four dustbin exhausts, 30kg-a-corner cheap-as-hell chrome wheels, a steering wheel effectively useless for its designed purpose, no-name "coilover" suspension and no engine modifications.

It's basically the definition of bad.

The only issues you will have are the front door handles have been removed so for MOT will have to make a way of opening them without the key fob or put the handles back in.

So presumably the keyfob opens the drivers door normally, how do the passengers get in?

Driver leans across and pops the door.

Classy

It must be such a kerfuffle... opening the driver's door, popping the passenger door, getting out the driver's side, walking around the car to open the door properly while your lady friend enters the car (averting your eyes of course) before returning the to the driver's seat.

So what defines 'badly modified' then? Are you talking about the execution of the work or the appearance (or something else)?

[scarble]

I think it's the fact the parts are cheap and nasty and also it looks utterly gash, objectively, it's not personnel (;)) preference, it looks like a cheap knock off toy robot/spaceship/raygun, the kind that has lead paint and the arms fall off and it shatters into tiny ultra sharp shards when it falls 2ft on to thick carpet. It looks like the paint and the chrome will rub off after about a week and there will be black plastic underneath.
Oh and the poorly fitted bumpers. Also the doors don't work, that's a bit st tbh.

I'd say that's all the car was worth, can't polish a turd. Though thinking about it there may be a profit from putting some of these body kit bonnet bulges on ebay

Its a POS 1.6 even standard there crap, add on huge pieces of expensive fiberglass and lowered so its too low scrapes rubs and eventually gets broke off(suites me I fix them), and the fact that some1 paid good money for 4-5 litres of what looks like Rage paint and then some fe*king goon went and painted panels off the car making it so nothing matches, If the fe*kwit couldn't follow the most important rule of flip-paint then I can only imagine the quality of the rest, and the exhausts are offensive

Vault wheels were expensive enough, Ugliest wheel ever and split on the inside,

One of our old demo cars that we used as a run about had flushed doors with poppers, on a cold morning the poppers needed to warm up to release properly, usually meant standing beside the pr*ck an gently push in on door while pressing the fob, could take 30-40 attempts sometimes, then that feeling you get as the door closes and you remember the windows up and fobs on the keys in the ignition - locked out,

but most of all the same car had a coming together with a tree one night at massive speed, ended upside down on the opposite side of the road, the boss man ended up being upside down hanging in the seat for 4hours pissing blood, because they had no clue as the how to approach it, had to call in special equipment so they could cut a section of the floor under the seat, a section of the 1/4+door and a section of the roof, terrible thing to go trough just because ''IT LOOKS GOOD''

look at the colour change on that scooby on the bootlid/rear quarter, that's horrible.

I'd like my car painted a mixture of bogie-vomit and metallic poo please.

Motivated enough to remove door cards to get zip ties under window but to lazy to fix it?

Shouldn't that read Window-lickin'?

[Limpet]

That Fiesta is astonishing.

"I HAVE JUST UNDER 10000 POUNDS WORTH OF RECEIPTS FOR THIS CAR"
And you've rendered it completely worthless. Well done.

"ONE OF BUMPERS AND SIDE SKIRTS AND REAR SPOILER"
Read home made.

"DRIVES VERY WELL"
I seriously doubt it on that suspension and those wheels.

"NO SERVICE HISTORY"
You don't say.....

"CAR IS REGISTERED AS 1.3 ON LOGBOOK,SO CHEAP TAX AND INSURANCE"
Says it all I think...
