As for me, finally installed the M3 front swaybar Charlie brokered for me! Tomorrow I will see what difference it makes.

New paint for the m-tech 2 bumpers. The rash from the previous owner was such an eye-sore.

but they look way better on the sedan than on the coupe. when i sold it to my friend and put it on his sedan. totally looked like they belong on there. on the coupe, i swear it made the car look more girly lol

I forgot to put an 'i' after 330 when I made that post. For some reason I thought we were talking about a sedan. No sedan came with 71's as part of a package, it was an addon for the sedans. The facelift convertibles with ZSP seem to have the 71's as part of their sport package, maybe the coupes even (though this seems to be hit or miss because I see 68's on some of these mentioned vehicles). These wheels are a lot more common on the coupes/convertibles, and are very rare on sedans as a result, though even still, 71's are not common by any stretch of the imagination.

For the cars that did not come with them, they were an expensive option. I remember browsing the E46 online configurator way back in the day and the 71's were a $4k-ish option under the "options" tab for the sedan. I never checked the coupes/convertibles (I'm a sedan kinda guy...)

Posting my 71s again, since there has been some recent discussion.
