Nice replacement 8) I can imagine it will be up to the same very high standards!

Looking for a specific spec?

Your M3 was stunning - well looked after sir 8)

The E46 CSL is a beast! That induction howl at 5k+ is like a second bank of (unsilenced) cylinders coming in 8) Good luck with the search. There are bound to be some that have been respected.

Reply have you tired sourcing through a specialist?

Onwards and upwards I guess.

Such a shame to hear it has gone.

Hope you will pop on here to guide us mere mortals in the fine art of car detailing?

All the best fella.

I hope it wont sit around gathering dust. It was made to be driven, not retire under a spot light!

Good luck with the new motor, your m3 was stunning!
