are you going to replace the gas filler lid?

[3_Series]

Yeah that was there when I got the car, its just stuck on with adhesive. I'm sure SLD could remove it without too much trouble. I need to head there anyway for my saggy headliner.

Suggestions:

E46 M3 Front Bumper and some sort of side skirts
LED Tail Lights
Projector headlights w/ HID and Angel Eyes
Painted Moldings
Drop

Good suggestions but too much money that I could be putting into performance.

After riding in your car, I love it. All the little luxury toys on the inside are awesome.

Can't wait to get a real ride in it this summer....

[Jim]

Performance? Its going to be really expensive on a 325i E36 to get any real power...

Even the M3 E36 guys end up supercharging to get any big power...

[3_Series]

What I meant by performance was just basic bolt-ons, chip, and maybe cams down the road. I'm not looking to go 12s, I just want some more everyday power, that is all. Sorry for any confusion.

and besides I think the exterior looks fine as is.

[Jim]

Ah, just my opinion.

I'm in love with E46 BMW's...

[3_Series]

I can tell. Personally I like the E90s myself. 255hp out of an NA 3L is pretty amazing.

:sigh: poor car.

you planning on leaving those wheels on through winter?

He got the wheels with the car.

Bryce is right they were mounted on it when I got it. If I can sell my pickup in time I will get some nice winter tires for the stock wheels that I also got with the car (tires are shot though).

I'm with Jim on this one... 330 hp out of 3.2L is much more impressive. 7% more displacement, 30% more hp. That's impressive.

Anyways, love the color of your car - very nice

good point, yes ITBs and tricky valves will do that to an engine
