E46 parts!!!

[HondaS2000tuner]

I had a 2000 BMW E46 323i (4door) sedan for a while now but never really thought about racing it or upgrading it. It has always been a beater car and was used for long drives. But after seeing a video online, I think it deserves a little attention for all the good rides it gave me. But when I looked around for body kits, exhaust, turbo/supercharger, internal upgrades, etc. etc. THERE JUST AREN'T ANY!!! either that itz the ugly kits and constant E30z and E36 parts. There just aren't parts for E46 unless I get it custom... so the question is, has anyone upgrade their 4 door E46? is there any parts for it anywhere? or should I just give up and leave to think that BMWz just aren't racing material? (<-come one now...you've GOT to help me, I just left a hugh dent on BMW enthusist's ego here!! Prove me wrong)

dude, there is such a large market for aftermarket E46 parts it's not even funny... Hamann, Breyton, AC-Schnitzer, M-Tech, just to name a few... visit those sites listed above... or some other sites around... and you'll find that there's TONS of stuff for the E46....

Hey, buddy, it is not funny indeed. 3 years ago, I had BMW 523, so the engine was quite the same, and, I went to my dealer in Russia (!), and they have offered me deep tuning for my car, and it turned into a beast. The parts were ORIGINAL BMW! So, it was factory tuning, and it increased the power by 80BHP. Also, they offered tuning kits for 528(328) engines, but nevermind... If you want body styling - not the problem, just look Haman or etc. Guy, have you ever visited or spoken to any BMW dealer at all? They will be happy to offer at least dozen ways of tuning...
