The BMW 335i/M3 D.S. is very similar to a conventional RWD Driveshaft.
Just need to give him the parts and the measurements. Or bring the car witg the M3 subframe in and he can do the work, if your not comfortable doing the job or measurements...
Thanks, I end up finding a local shop in the bx that did the cut, weld and balance the DS, not too happy with his work but so far it fits. I'm still going to contact Nassau DriveShaft Shop anyways to see if I can get a them to make me one also.

Also about this swap for those who have a e93. The 2 brace that makes a V (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=51_6578) won't fit cause the M3 diff sits lower than the 335 diff.

You might need the E93 M3 Rear Subframe Braces..

Or are you talking about something on the rear differential itself?

No this brace is part of the reinforcement of the body, I've look at both the M3 and the 335 on realoem and its the same part number for both cars. I might have been putting the left side on the right I'm gonna check again. Thanks guy
