Hi guys,

I'm TSINI, a stranger to these parts, but not a stranger to forums and the general interwebz

I'm 25 and I've managed to get the bank to (foolishly) lend me enough money to secure myself a second hand BMW. Its my second car, and a massive leap forward in automotive awesomesauce

after an empoverished student lifestyle, my new job gave me the opportunity to replace my decrepit Rover 214, and replace it with a real car...

Somehow I've gotten my hands on a Black 2002 E46 3 series compact with 80k on the clock for a fair chunk under the asking price, and I'm now looking at ways of personalising it.

I have some vague ideas, I'm pretty much just going to try them out, and show pics online, and gauge the general opinions of BMW enthusiasts who can tell me to burn in hell, or keep with it.

nothing heavy, just some small reversible additions to theme the car to my personality, but leave it sellable for the future (when I'm looking to upgrade of course :D )

Hope to be a fun addition to this community!

Cheers

TSINI
