E46 M3 with GTR Hood and CSL Bumper - Jezebel's new look

[Crash_Nemesis]

So... Since owning Jezebel... actually wait. Scratch that. Since before owning Jezebel, I have always liked the look of the GTR hood and CSL bumper on the e46 M3. So, for many years, my goal was to achieve this look.

I am happy to say, that thanks to Burgy for helping with initial test fitting and taking off my old hood and bumper and Leonard from Dent Doctor for painting the Hood and Bumper, I now have a GTR CSL Look.

Pictures speak a thousand words... so let me post them. Bare in mind. THe first 11 pictures were taken with my iPhone. The Camera on my iPhone has gone weird and now blooms out and overexposes like crazy. The lens has had better days. The last three photos were taken with my 7D HDSLR this morning.

Enjoy.

1. The HOOD.

2. The CSL Bumper with Carbon Fibre Splitters.

3. Old Hood off

4. New Hood on

5. Old Bumper off

6. Disconnecting the Xenon Fog Lights

7. Xenon Fog lights out.

8. Bumper test fitment

9. Drill holes for BMW badge

10. Test badge placement

11. Completed. Now to go to Leonard for paint.

12. Being stripped for paint.

13. Finished.

14. Finished.

15. Finished

The car is at Leonard now finalyzing some fitment tweaks.

Just wanted to extend a big thanks to Leonard from Dent Doctor for putting up with my shit.. ha ha. Car looks the part now.
