So you come by it naturally. ;-)

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - an e46f member
Finally had the time to put the interior back together and finish the last front seat

Looks great. And it's nasty and snowy out. Ugh.

Fantastic work!
I was very close to buying the AW M3 sedan that you ended up buying from Michigan. How are you liking it? How does it compare to the ZHP?

I love the M3. It is my 2nd e36 m3 and the e36 is just a totally different feel from any e46... it feels much more raw. To be 100% honest the vehicle had a lot more problems then what was disclosed (not sure if this is sellers fault because who knows what he knew) and the clear coat peeling was worse then described and shown in pictures but that is what I get for buying it sight unseen.
I am debating selling it for a coupe in either Techno Violet or Estoril now since everything has been sorted aside from the paint. I have always wanted a TV or Estoril coupe but who knows what I will do.
Looks great! Makes me long for a sedan.
And sell that AW for TV or Estoril. Dooo eet. Alpine is one of my favorite colors on BMWs, but TV and Estoril are above it for me.
Front plate delete filler installed as well as fog light surrounds. The ECS ones didn't fit at all so I paid a whole $4.83/side for OEM ones at the dealer with my discount due to the auto group I work for having a BMW dealer! I am so excited to get the the paint corrected and sealed! I have fallen in love with the Orient Blue!

I love the color. When I got it originally on my '03 330Ci ZSP, I was sort of indifferent (but still in love with the car), but it grew on me. In the bright sunlight its a deep blue with wonderful metallic flecks. In medium/low light it's almost a purple color, and in the dark it looks black.
