    Im trying to modify my bmw 330. I want to have quad exhuast fitted and air vents inserted on the side... To make my car look like a M3.

    Do you know anyone that does this, or will fit above for me...

    In the Limerick region would be perfect...Thanks alot...

    Please stop what you're doing.
    Sell the 330 and just buy an M3 if that's what you want but don't try and make your car into something it isn't..

    make into what ever you want bro, i wouldnt do it personally but if i was to do it id reseach to see if OEM parts will fit and try find someone breaking an M3, you wont beat OEM parts for quality and fitement. Just please dont put an M3 badge on it

    You will knock a fair bit off the value of the car doing this IMO.
    Consider putting an oem areo kit and tastier bm alloys on it, would be much tastier.

    I agree with the above please don't do it.The 330 is a fine car in its own right and nothing to be ashamed of.

    What's an M3 kit? is it like an Rs4 kit? the M3 shares very few panels with a normal 3 series so there is no 'kit' that can truly make it look like an M3.

    Also if he fits M3 or CSL Rim he will need to find 4 front ones,the rears won't fit.

    If he wants an M3 sell it and buy one,if he wants a tastefully modified 330 then ditch the M3 rep idea and go a different route.

    if it was me id make it into a muscle car.... trade that current one in and get the smallest engine possible, then using current funds get a 318ci coupe and Make it low slung, big engine, rough paint, Rivet wheels...


    Would certainly beat a tacky m3 conversion.

    OP, Just about anyone who knows anything about cars would be able to tell a real M3 from fake, so I really can't see the point

    ah yeah, isn't the whole argument with that that

    The only people who will notice the difference are the ones who know it's not a real one so what's the point?
