And to quote from the article pg 48

Quote:
In 2003 the E46 330Ci coupe and convertible models received, among other rhings, subtle tweaks to the front, including a wider kidney grille, curvier headlights and new wings and indicators. Replicating this facelift would not only ensure his M3 would be totally unique but it would also lend it a fresher, cleaner look. The car was once again entrusted to Taylors bodywork. " It wasn't easy. The M3's bonnet is hunched over and curved in profile compared to the coupe's so we had to make several cuts either side to better shape it and replicate that growly, angry look."
Moral of the story: do your research before jumping to conclusions and talking from your bottoms :lol:

Unless of course you believe the staff of a magazine devoted to performance and aftermarket BMWs are too stupid to recognize a real M3 from a bodykit special. ]]> Fifth Gear edkwon http://forums.finalgear.com/fifth-gear/to-those-who-thought-tim-shaws-m3-was-a-fake-40296/ Aussie Airing: Fifth Gear On Channel 7 Two (72) http://forums.finalgear.com/fifth-gear/aussie-airing-fifth-gear-on-channel-7-two-72-a-39852/ Fri, 23 Oct 2009 01:02:03 GMT ---Quote--- 7Two will begin broadcasting on 1 November 2009 on digital channel 72 (Seven Two, geddit?) and will be the first place to see the new...

7Two will begin broadcasting on 1 November 2009 on digital channel 72 (Seven Two, geddit?) and will be the first place to see the new series of Ugly Betty, Heroes, Lost and 24.


The rest of the channel's programming will include the "very best of British television", themed nights including Action & Adventure, Lifestyle and Movies, and cooking programs from the likes of Jamie Oliver.


While Nine is rumoured to be courting Top Gear, 7Two will broadcast the "other" UK motoring show Fifth Gear.


Seven has been running a teaser all week on channel 72 with echoes of Gough Whitlam: "It's Time".
