E46 M3 diff mesh pattern

Happy Easter all,
I just rebuild my diff with 4.1. Can you guys tell me if the pattern looks ok?

Not too bad but it's better to add a shim on pinion to get the pattern low on the tooth; it's too close to the tooth crown on the drive side now.

I'd run it.

Is a bit deep, that is why you have a straight line toward the root of the teeth on the coat side. Are you using the original shims from the oe setup or are you starting from scratch?
