jhayer Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Hi , Thought id put pics up of my 330cd (finally) Its on a 55 plate, brought it cat-d, repaired by my uncle with help from myself. I was looking for a M3 but insurance was a tad too much (due to me being 21) , im not saying insurance is cheap on a 330cd but is alot more affordable. We decided to style it on the M3 as i wanted it to be different. I wanted to keep the facelift headlights and modify the M3 wings to fit, but ran into trouble when fitting the M3 bonnet. All parts used are genuine M3. The project was on the road about 3 months ago, but its still not 100% complete:- Gotta get the wing mirrors put on, exhaust rebuild and lower the front. Alot of time and effort went into this project, i hope you enjoy the pictures and any feedback is welcomed. Progress pics are available on my facebook, just add me :- Jagdeep Hayer Thanks for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorge- Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Can't say I am a fan of badging up a car. Well not literally badging it up, but if you look at it, you think of an M3, not a diesel. Looks like you did a good repair job though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayse Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 reckon you've got yourself a bit of a bargain there. Damage doesn't look too bad and the car looks great now, especially with those wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major bargain mate, were going to get the LM style rims first but feel in love with these, especially with 275 rears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momo Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Looking good! Can't believe that's a 330Cd! As above, not usually a fan of bagding up or replicas but gotta admit - this one is spot on! You even got the rear wheel arches looking like proper M3 ones.. Did you have to weld on proper M3 arches for the rear? The main thing is that you enjoy it mate so enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mit Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Fantastic job! Personally I'd rather have it the other way round; M3 engine in a standard body, but what a car to have at age 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
