Awesome! First dibs when you come to sell it!

I love it! I bet it surprises a few people. How does it perform compared to a regaular e46 M3?

Any brakes / suspension mods?

Good work

Much hassle?

PM me if you arent comfortable posting, but what do you think the turn-key cost of that swap would be? I would LOVE to have that.

[v8m3]

the total for the whole job including buying the 330 is 13000 but the engine and running gear had only done 721 miles,you could use non genuine csl front wheels and save 500 and the m3 front bumper rear diffuser and mirrors were a grand to fit a 4 door, you dont have to have these parts but i wanted a car that looked different but not chaved, then i had the car painted and everything colour coded it all adds up + the modifying of the rear boot floor to take the m3 exhaust

[CraigW]

fancy making an e39 M5 estate next?

[v8m3]

this is another conversion i have done,both cars have monaro v8s in them car will be at santa pod on sunday at the bmw show

[baz1985]

that's fantastic.

Very nice! From a visual point of view, I would remove the front numberplate holder and stick the plate directly onto the bumper. To me it looks like it juts out a bit too much atm.

Absolutely fantastic .... Just hope your mechanical talent is better than your aim when you top up the oil though

Looks fantastic, you are like a mini version of Brabus. Although, why didn't you add the M3 bonnet....?
