  1. E46 Touring
    Hello, recently I spotted a pre-facelift e46 touring with a roof spoiler on it, asked the fella what it was and he said Maxton Design, also had a facelift hood with the slightly nicer kidneys, thought it looked cool. I don't yet know if I want to do this or not, but I was wondering, does the...

I can't decide whether I go through them, buy a custom hood or buy OEM and vinyl wrap it. I was wondering If anyone knew any cool...

    Why you should not buy knock-off aerocatch (I purchased mine on Amazon). NASA Mid-Atlantic race at VIR on 25/Mar. Thunder group, GTS3 class. I qualified in 5th, started in 4th and was in 2nd gaining on 1st place when hood latch failed at 137mph on the main straight going into Turn 1. I stayed...

    So I'm thinking about buying a GTR-style hood for my 04 m3, however the problem is that all the ones I see online are either carbon or a different color than my m3 (laguna seca blue). Should I buy the hood and get it painted or not buy it at all?

    Hey guys I recently bought my first BMW and it is a 2000 323i sedan but the car was spun out and the hood was bent in. I just bought a new hood off of another bmw 323i that was for parts but can't seem to find any DIY's on how to replace the old hood with the new one. If anyone knows either how...
