Grant, you should paint your mirror base GOLD!
Thanks dude

Gold? I don't know...I think he may be better off with the IP or the gloss black...but then again...I am not as creative as you Boris

$129 out the door. He even re-sprayed my mirrors as they had a few scratches on them. I removed them from the car and just gave him the parts.

PM me if you are interested in using the same guy...out of Pleasanton. He does great work

With a car like the M3 that's been out for 5 years, and is no longer in production now, you realize that everything has been done. All my standard thoughts for mods have been done by somebody already. My goal is to make my vert different from anything out there. I absolutely hate driving a stock car, so seeing those parts in my garage do nothing other than make me cringe. The new wheels aren't in my garage yet, I just placed the order. Should be about 6 weeks till they come in, and my cars first phase will be unveiled then.

to be honest... i dont even like m3's one bit, they look pretty good, but other than that... hate em. But for some reason, just because its you and i know what you're capable of when modding a car, i cant wait to see what you've done.

The mirrors look great, now that you've gotten rid of that unfinished plastic!

Fortune's arrived at their new owners door in North Dakota today.

Nice
I'm assuming with your hookups you probably got what you paid for them or made a little

I'm anxious to see what you have in store for the M.

What is the name of and where did you get the 350GT grille. I like that a lot, did you have to paint the outline white yourself? Thanks.

I believe it is the Unlimited Tuning grille (only available for 03-04 models) with a 350gt badge attached. Thye sell a similar one on ebay, but there are fit issues (gap between top of grille and hood) for the 03-04 model. The 05-06 ebay grille is supposed to fit very well.
