Is that your car?
Somebody here already did the conversion and made it clear that it's not a simple bolt-on job. I personally, only long for the fender vents as I'm happy with the 3 series coupe styling (with some aero bits) as is. |

This is a coworker's 335
The conversion besides the parts requires a lot of work. For example none of the 335 supports for the fenders line up. Rear bumper is a little wider, front radiator & bumper support is different, winshield fluid tank is also different, etc. I will keep track of it and get pictures of the progress. |

Should have just bought an actual M3. I never see the point in these conversions.. I would have just gone with the full M-Tech kit.

or maybe he wantd a twin turbo over a v8, but wanted the beastly look of an m3 hell i think its a badass idea, im not 100% sure but i think the 335's motor prolly has a lot more potential cuz of the turbos n such!!!

You guys are stupid, the standard 335i -> m3 conversion arguments does not apply because he doesn't have to pay for the conversion himself, the insurance company does.
