F8X M3/M4 CF Drive shaft mod

[enjoy_m3]

Lol, I saw that 160 ebay one. My input would be to make sure have it inspected too before buying. You never know which f80 has a really bad accident it could damage the driveshaft. I luckily found one local for 200 and was able to physically inspect myself and touch it to see it all looked ok. But still hard to tell since its spun and bonded. We're all hoping the bond is still good. Which I think so as long as the car wasn't in a crazy wreck.

Just ordered one myself, looks like MPartsWW on ebay has the best prices on these. This could become one of the best value proposition mods for the E46 M3.

If someone is feeling ambitious, I can see a market where one buys these driveshafts used and sells them pre-modified for E46 M3 owners. They would sell better than the overpriced Taiwanese carbon shafts.

Don't worry, I have 4 more ready to go.

LOL I want one!

Can you post exact part number please? Thanks

Don't know if this helps or not, but this is the one I purchased.

lol. My best friend bought 1 after I ordered, too.

If this catches on, it's gonna suck for f8x owners that need a replacement 🤣

Haha, I am even thinking about buying a spare one for a possible second build so I can still get one cheap.

Glad to see I was able to spark some interest on this.

Why I went ahead and picked one up on eBay just now! I can already see this mod going mainstream…can't lie tho, I'm still tripping out off the price of these things..

Is the welded steel section bonded to the CF or is it removable somehow?

Bonded.

It’ll be cutting off some portion of the stock f8x steel parts, welding on the e46 flanges (carefully managing heat and setting the lengths to e46 driveshaft length), and then balancing the final assembly.
