AWESOME POST!
I love the E46 TI, I just wish we got them here. I would pick up one of those in a heart beat if I found one for sale in the states.. | | | | | 07-23-2008, 11:02 PM | #19 | | Junior Member Join Date: Jul 2008 Location: Mud Island, TN Posts: 20 |

BUT, unlike the E36 TI, everything else IS interchangable with the sedan or coupe. | Uh, that looks like an answer if I've ever seen one... With enough time, money, and tools you could make the front look like whatever you wanted it too. But he clearly states "...front clip cannot interchange with the e46 sedan!" __________________

^ nope, never heard of it. Usually when someone refers to a "Front Clip" they ARE talking about the entire front end, you know, thats why why call it a "Front Clip." Maybe your not familiar with that term, its kind of a body-shop term. It usually refers to the front fenders, bumper, headlight, hoot, etc, and all being 1 piece...

I could be wrong (wouldn't be the first time)... | Actually, the e46 TI (1750 mm) it's a little wider then the sedan (1739 mm)! The fenders, hood, headlights, etc cannot be replaced with the ones from the sedan as stock parts. But as one of you mentioned above, anything is possible with the right set of tools! I wouldn't see the point for an operation like that! The TI has something of it's own! It would look awfull with "the front" of the sedan! I also have to say that the M pack brings a radical change! The TI e46 without this pack lookg completly different! Bellow are some pics of another 325ti without m pack, so you can compare!    __________________

Lambo doors are so played out that even Lambo's don't have them anymore! __________________
