Those are strong possibilities As are ZHP or style 197 wheels, black kidneys, maybe black-wrapped chrome trim. Need to start researching suspension upgrades too. Just learning what's available but those have my attention so far.
What's a good brand of clear corners/side markers to go with?
depo makes great taillights for the facelift e46. id go with OEM for corners and sides as the cheap DEPO ones will yellow over time. make sure to get the Ti trim on the corners.
I agree with press22, the chrome grills work well on black with the chrome trim and ti headlight trims
personally, I think ambers really look great on black. If it were me I would wrap the window trim, mayyybbee black kidneys, mtech2 front bumper. Then you're done cosmetically!
Good luck with the car, remember to do what YOU want. :thumbsup:
Already snagged the shadowline matte black vinyl from someone on here so do the window trim going to take it slow. I'll be super busy with work for the next few months anyway.
Oh I also ordered the scan tool from China. Need to program the damn lights to flash on lock! lol. I still have a lot to learn about this platform.
How long do the stock dampers usually go on these cars? Any opinions on which coilovers to look at? Probably going to want stainless steel thanks to Michigan salt.
Dumb question I know, but what kind of rear bumper do I have? I keep seeing stuff about an mtech2 rear bumper. Is that mine, or did something different come on the sport package?
Does anyone make parts for the mtech 1 rear bumper? Like a CF diffuser for example? I will probably get an Mtech 2 front bumper eventually as mine is pretty beat up, but I think the rear is ok.
It's going to be really hard waiting til spring to mount these up.
