The front of that E46 is horr-awful, especially the ///M badge on the kidneys. It's a shame because if he took all that shit off it'd be a beautiful car. Sometimes less is more.

It's very hard to tell, also I don't "follow" BMW's, but. On the M3 in the front bumper, those two circular objects....are they intakes? I feel if those circular rings were blacked out, even a black chrome it would enhance the cars image. It kinda looks tacky because it doesn't flow with anything else.

I believe they're intakes for brake ducts. Probably has one of these:



Air flows through the backing plate onto the disc providing more efficient cooling (or so I've heard).

thanks a lot man. I was hoping you'd see the pictures. Ive learned a great deal just from your photos of my car.

I agree about #3 and toned that down

i like the photos, the m3 is beautiful imo, the civic is..."meh" full of trend and no function. For some reason i really hate it when the driver ops to stay in the vehicle during a shoot, almost seem pretentious.

only at the train station did he stay in the car, and that was because we were far into private property and expected to get kicked out, we never heard a thing from anyone. but trust me I noticed it too, and Id rather have him not in the car as well.

Yes they are, but many people like them for the looks. they came factory on the e39 m5 i believe. more of a trendy thing. some are functional.

I doubt its for the intake and I really hope they aren't brake ducts. If so, totally tacky.

The civic, I hope the bike rack is functional. It looks like a nice simple build, I'd love to find out it makes 250ish NA or 350ish turbocharged.

Pictures just seem to take away from the cars, Im NO photographer by ANY means. I know the M3 is nice but I would like to enjoy the beauty of each vehicle you shot; not an artsy version of it. No offense to you as a photographer
