Aside from our opinions of your artistry.....why have you done this? For drifting? As a daily?

...i'm not sure what that'l do to the value of it if/when you decide to sell up...

definately eye-catching tho, il give you that!

An M3 as a donor? I assume its a rotten old shed to be breaking up.

An E36 M3 is a beast!

How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

All you need now is to get your self a bowler hat, cut a hole in the top, fill it with custard, put it on your head then pull it down sharply when you get out of this car! Oh and the head lights need to fall out on springs when you pull up as well :D :D :D

That's a start - finish the paintjob - more tango - get some grafix & logos on it and you're on the way to having an attention grabbing track car!!!

I actually do quite like the orange and white combo - but i wouldn't do it quite like that!!!
