Yes, they're made in Taiwan by Eagle Eyes.

Leave it in the shop?...Dude, its no exaggeration whatsoever when I say I am probably the most mechanically and technologically imcompetent person on the planet, and I did the sides and corners with no problem at all...I actually think the e36 corners are harder to replace than the e46's...The rears take a little while, only because of ONE screw, but its not a problem at all...They're all over ebay...No rush though...

I'm sure I could do the front corners, because I've taken them out before.. I'm just worried about the rears.. It seems every time I try to do a mod, I get in over my head and realize halfway through that I can't actually do it. (Well, it's happened twice. Once was a case of incomplete equipment/instructions).. Hmm. Time for me to start saving!

Well I just spent about 45 minutes taking apart the rear light assembly and it seems pretty straightforward. The only thing that worries me is the main brake/reverse light assembly. There's one screw that's down at the bottom that is hard to access and I'm worried I'll drop it down into the bowels of the trunk.. I'm hoping that those LED lights are truly "plug-n-play"... We all know what happened last time I bought something advertised as plug and play..

Very nice CJ. Those wheels are the bomb for the E46. They're 18's that look like 19's. You could have some mod fun with the E46.

Stupid question: The bumper sticker of the blue square with the two horizontal yellow stripes is something I have seen often but never bothered to ask what it meant. So what does it represent?

The blue square with yellow stripes is an equals sign. It's the logo of the Human Rights Campaign. It means you support equal rights for gays/lesbians/bisexuals, etc.
