Thanks for posting up pics of my car lol,

and yeah as sonny has said, ive booked it in for a full body respray at my mates garage at mates rates, gonna keep it for a bit as i got it very cheap, and then sell it in a few months, ideally i want to get a touring again and a rear damaged m3, so i can strip it and make a m3 touring ;)

P.S. i also initially thought that but then i realised the only e46 beemer which had the facelift around 2003 and 2004 was the coupes and verts
