Another thread only said this was in regards to 4/M4 series vehicles. Is this now on M3s as well?

I'd assume so since they are the same headlight, it's not like bmw gives special priority for the m3 to get them at a certain factory vs the m4 at a neighboring factory. It's a global shortage it will apply to every model that needs that specific chip.

But maybe they in fact are doing so? Given the post that first brought this to light it would appear that is actually the case currently. Doesn't mean it won't eventually effect the M3 too though.

Blue looks sick. She's a beauty.
Blue headlight looks is default with laser. Too bad about the shortage.

I test drove an M3C with the carbon buckets, and thought they were amazing. Very comfortable. Supportive. I loved them. I weigh in at ~80kg, FWIW. I’m still planning to get the sport seats for DD use, year-round.

They're awesome seat but I found getting out of them was a bit of a struggle for me.

Random mod today---- 10 mins per side- added gloss vinyl wrap to get the orange out. I actually think it flows with the gloss lower pieces:

Oh wow that looks great. I always leave my orangies alone but I agree you've got it matched to trim, so I would do that.

further, its like maybe 10 bucks to get the sheet and cut it- apply - press - blade carefully- remove edging.

I did it on a few cars cause of my themes like the R8 and M8 as well.

My old F90 M5- definitely is color determinant if was going to color code stuff.
