She was covered in dirt and the birds decided to do some target practice on it as well. So I took her to the car wash and gave her a bath and stood back and realized, damn, this is still quite a sexy beast just needs some minor tlc to be perfect. Then, I went for a cruise and as I was pounding through the gears and hauling through the backroads around where I live, I could feel all the years of refinement over the e28. So Im wanting to keep her and do some custom subtle mods basically go oem plus, so get some lows, some nice wheels, a roof rack, a slightly louder exhaust and do some other tweaking but mostly go for the look of having a very clean e46 that I can take on those long trips and relax rather than hear the drone of the damn close to straight pipe on my super eta powered monster e28. So guys and gals (if there are any on here lol) pitch me some ideas (within reason (SNAP). I also am trying to do this on a decent budget (no moneys here like king of ocd stainless and powdercoating junkie EARL lol)</p>
<p dir="auto">How she sits now</p>

<p dir="auto">You would also have suspension travel=) The huge plus is that the car will handle much better and will be less likely to have a suspension component fail while driving.</p>

<p dir="auto">Guys lets keep this opinionated but civilized. As a side note lets tone it down on the Earl bashing, seems to be a lot of that lately. At least he consistently gets things done every weekend on his car!</p>
