The E46 was introduced here as a 99' model, but in the form of four doors only.

The E36 coupe and convertible both continued to be sold here as the 99 models.

Enjoy your 328is! Try going with the old school mods such as the BMW OEM clear taillights, ZKW or Bosch front ellipsoids, J. Conforti intake and the Shark injector for beginners. Then you can work your way to the suspension and other parts.

Good luck!

Jon

Looks nice and clean. I did the smoked corner lights for my 95 myself. Nice mod. Also, do the crystal clear red tails. That made a big difference on my car. Enjoy the drive. I missed the BMW drive so I jumped back into an E46.

Yeah I want to do the red/clear Tail lights but in a smoked housing to match everything else I'll have smoked also. I don't think I'll be able to do the ZKW projectors with the Angel Eyes JUST yet, those are a tad costly for me right now. Maybe in the future though! Thanks again everyone!

That alone was one of the best things you could do for it.

It absolutely is, I know you are a big fan of it. It's so easy to use, and works so well. I've tried all kinds of swirl mark removers, and Scratch-Out is hands down the best.

Depending on how dark the smoke corners are, the red clear still might look nice. I had the smoked corners as well, but it wasn't the real dark smoke. The red clear matches really nice. Anyway, good luck either way.
