hmm

The work is pretty clean, and it comes at a beater price... so I can't knock it... but why would anyone do that? For the price of that cosmetic conversion, the owner probably could have gotten a REAL M3 and got the performance to go with it!

WOW....WHY......

Maybe he just wanted to show off his skills and that all he had available?

This reminds me of the fake Blue R34 on some old modified VW Beetle chassi that was used in F&F 4

If he had the skills, equipment, and materials to do the conversion, then I'd have to say he did a pretty impressive job. If he paid to have that done, then I think it's a stupid idea (though I still admire the work.) I can't say it's a great M3 copy, but it's one of the better ones I've seen.

I'm glad to see he's selling it for what the vehicle itself is worth, not what he feels someone should pay for all that custom work! I've seen "custom" beater cars like that put on the market for, like $12,000... that's just idiotic.


That R34 looks pretty badass. Looks like they built such a custom tube chassis for it that they could probably turn it into a pretty potent performer if they wanted to!

ive seen those conversion kit before, there is a guy around my way with a black one like that.....although hes looks sloppy, it has about 1/4" gaps between doors and fenders and the nose is not lined up with the rest of the body but when you seen it at night it def looks amazing. Tried doing a quick search and found about 6 forums flaming this civc BMW forum included

The Craigslist listing was flagged/removed. But I could not deny others in this forum from viewing this masterpiece. So I made sure to save the image for posterity. Enjoy.

YOU'RE WELCOME!

That's nice work but, I don't know why the person claims it's completely converted into an BMW M3.

That looks nice, and I hate civics.

this car was probably done 8-10 years ago. it probably sat in someone's garage the whole time because someone liked it a lot and hated to get rid of it......that would be the time when people liked their cars more than they do now. that's also around the time people thought that type of modification was sick. i was in the scene then, i remember everyone talking about what kind of headlights and taillights they wanted to try and fit on their car. the mini truckers are the ones that started doing that and it followed to the imports right after. later.
