M3 E46

Exhaust and carbon fiber parts for the BMW M3 E46

For the M3 E46 there is a stainless steel Valvetronic catback for the S54 engine, and CSL and GTR-style prepreg dry carbon fiber body parts from the front bumper back to the trunk lid. All of the parts are imported from leading manufacturers around the world.

Valvetronic catback exhaust

The catback is the section from behind the catalysts back to the tips; the catalysts stay in place. The M3 E46 Valvetronic catback is stainless steel and comes with its own electronic control box and wireless remote. You open and close the valves with that remote, not with a button in the car: open, it gets louder; closed, it quiets down. You can choose the tips in matte carbon fiber, gloss carbon fiber, gloss black or stainless steel. If you pick matte or gloss carbon fiber tips, the exhaust matches the carbon body parts.

Carbon fiber body parts

At the front there are a carbon fiber bumper, a CSL lip, front fenders and mirror caps. The carbon hood comes as a GTR vented hood and its custom grille version, and there is also a hood with LCI in its name. At the back there are a CSL rear diffuser, a CSL trunk lid and a spoiler. The CSL front lip, diffuser and trunk lid belong to the same design family. You can also order the body parts in gloss or matte finish and choose between the two on the product page.

Things to check before you choose

  • The M3 E46 was only sold as a Coupé and Convertible; state your body style before you order a trunk lid or rear part.
  • Ask before you order which car the spoiler with "Touring" in its name fits, because there was no factory M3 E46 Touring.
  • Confirm on WhatsApp which production years the hood with "LCI" in its name fits.

Frequently asked questions

Do E46 parts fit the E36 or E92 M3?

The E36 is the previous generation and the E90 / E92 / E93 the next one. Their body dimensions differ, so E46 parts do not fit them. For the next generation, see the M3 E90 / E92 / E93 category.

What do CSL and GTR in the product names refer to?

These names describe the design of the part; the products are not original BMW CSL or GTR parts.

Do the exhaust and carbon parts have a warranty?

Yes, the exhaust and the carbon parts all carry a 24-month BYC warranty against manufacturing defects. Parts ship via partner couriers. Lead time for sourced-to-order parts is confirmed on WhatsApp right after your order.
