Just to prove I'm still a w203'er... New Mod Teaser

Ok, so yes, I've been modding the ///M for the past couple weeks and have been neglecting the w203... but, that doesn't mean I forgot about it!

I've had one mod that I want to try out on the w203 for a while already and it took a while b/c I needed to get it painted. I got a 2005+ grill and had it color-matched; I'm still waiting for it to fully dry and the cold and humid climate right now really isn't helping. As a result, I'm going to hopefully install it in a few days.

Sorry guys, no pics on the car just yet... But, just to appease you here's a pic of the ///M3 (sorry for the dirty pic) with some mods: 50% tint, painted sidemarkers, micro antenna, LED license plate lights, half-silver front turn signal bulbs, ///M logo valve stem caps (the other mods are all inside the car, updated Nav firmware with ///M splash, DICE Ipod Integration, hardwired V1, oem wind deflector). And, I've had the car for less than three weeks and the CA DMV ALREADY sent me plates! Oh well, no front plate on this car!

lol! man, after driving the M3, even during break in, it's hard for me to drive the w203 without trying to tap on the back of the steering wheel and stab at the throttle... the w203 is stable at high speeds but just feels out of breathe while the M3 wants to keep on going and you can't even tell how fast you're going...

thanks man! actually the silver hoodstar is somewhere in my garage, I switched out to DFWDude's White Star Flat Hood Badge in July...

The black grill will look great on your car.

The M3 is one of the few convertibles that looks good with the top up. I drove one recently. This was me with my mouh wide open----> ///ö)

That car is FUN.
