Anyway, lets not start this thread an attack towards me.

If you think "Not mentioning any names" means multiple people I think you should probably take some sort of remedial English course.

As for the thread's original question, all that matters is you like what you have. Do you have any other pictures with better lighting and more angles?

These might not be rice, but imo look kinda weird: eyelids that make the car look like they're squinting, rear splitter thinger, wheels, rear taillights, e46 front air dam, side mirrors, lack of bmw logos. I do however like the E46 hood.. if only if it didn't look like the car's squinting.

Very Naiice!! (in Borat speak). I dig the euro look.

Amazing.. most people really dislike the E46 M3 bumper on the E36.. but everyone here seems to like it.. those fogs do fit well with the bumper though.

Overall.. I give it a "nice" but some details are rice.

If it was my car, I would get tyres that fit the rims better (I do not mind the chrome or polished), lose the chrome headlights, and go with some nice smoked stock euro tails.. but that is just me.

Not rice. It's completely Euro looking. Not my taste, but it doesn't look horrible. It would look right at home in Total BMW magazine. Where is that AAFES station?

That particular aafes gas station was in Mannheim, Germany.

About the fog lights they are the e46 M3 original lights.

I prefer wheel and tire combos with a little more profile,
Car looks nicely done to me...

Can't vote because both answeres are bad.
Car isn't rice, and Borat is a waste of skin, and the electrons used to film him.

Cool. I thought that's where it was, but I wasn't sure from the angle. I lived in BFV in '01-'02.

I lived in BFV from 1998 to 2005. I extended like 3 times to stay there then they put me on orders fo Fort Lewis. What unit where you in?

[bullmand]

I was in the 76th Army Band out at Campbell. We moved down there from Wiesbaden in early 2001. I was also stationed in Bad Kreuznach from 1991 to 1997. Good times over there. I only left to take a position at a special band here in MD. I was supposed to stay there until 2005.

you guys should check out topgear.com and go to the carbage link. then his car will definitely look euro. If nothing else, it's good for some great laughs.

A Ti even made it into carbage... Good one.
