[PNWVERT]

Decided I should start a build thread for my 2011 E93 M3.

Current mods:

- 20x9+15 20x10+20 BBS LMs on 255/30 295/25 PS4S

- 20x9 +30 20x10 +42 TE37 Ultras (spare set)

- KW Variant v3 coilovers

- Macht Schnell Stage 2 Intake

- M performance exhaust (Will be replaced with valved exhaust)

- RW Carbon fiber front lip

- M Tech Carbon fiber rear diffuser (will be replaced with Varis upper and lower)

- RW Carbon fiber hood vents

- RW Carbon Fiber trunk lip spoiler

- Full front PPF

- Full car ceramic coated

- Vanity plates arriving in a couple weeks

Spring 2024 I’ll be switching the wheel setup to 19x9.5 +22 19x10.5 +16 and get off these 20’s.

I also have a 2014 supercharged TL pushing close to 500awhp.

Thanks for viewing!

Added the M Performance license plate frame. Pulled the rear together. Debating on the next mod. CF skirts or fender grill. Eventually I’ll end up with both. Also on the hunt for a JDM exhaust.

Weather has been decent. Finally was able to drop the top in Seattle.

I have rear lower diffuser waiting to go on and skirts on the way. I’ll be updating once everything has been ceramic coated and installed.

Most recent update.

Picked up the Vorsteiner Titanium cat back exhaust from a forum member.

Also installed Pom Performance carbon side splitters and RW Carbon fender grills. I’ll most likely replace down the road to the 2x2 grills. Everything else is 2x2 but was unavailable when I was purchasing.

Pom Performance rear lower carbon tray has to be modified to work on the E93. Good old, lower trunk brace. Will install soon.

I ceramic coated all carbon parts and caps using Crystal Serum Lite.

Under the hood now has the Blackline Performance blue oil, coolant expansion tank and washer fluid caps. Complimented with the matching Downstar dress up hardware. The following week I did add the matching Blackline gas cap. Small touches.

Next up, either high flow X pipe or BimmerWorld’s test pipes, racing center and tune. Ideally add the optional Magna Flow dual resonators.

More to come. Pretty confident in what wheels I will swap too. Switch up the look.

Thanks for viewing!

Been laying low collecting parts. Scored a steal on a like new set of Hyper Blue TE3L SL’s. Cusco front strut bar going on with some tweaks. Additionally, waiting on half roll cage to arrive. More to come.

[PNWVERT]

Caged is mocked up. Installing tomorrow. Tires, TPMS, stud conversion and lugs arriving Monday.

Finally putting wrench time in.

Cusco Front Swaybar and rear lower CF tray will be the final pieces installed as they required some modifications and finesse.

TE’s going on early next week. Few more mods to complete in addition.

[PNWVERT]

Put in a little work last week. Lower CF Rear diffuser tray installed. Replacing the hardware on the end flaps since they didn’t hold up well. Decent until I source the Varis diffusers now that I know what modifications are required for the E93.

Mocked up the SL’s to get a quick photo after tires were mounted. Since I’m all about helping the community here’s the setup:

Hyper Blue TE37SL 18x9.5 +22 on Michelin PS4S 265/35/18 18x10.5 +20 on 295/30/18.

Coated the wheels with Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light topped with Exo v5. Since I had some left over ceramic, I decided to hit the Project Kics Monolith Ti lugs. Studs will be installed tonight and mount it all up.

Front suspension will be dropped a tad lower to match the rear.

Lastly, cage had a number of cosmetic defects so it will be getting stripped and painted Hyper Blue to pull everything together.

Just picked up a Macht Schnell X pipe with 200 cell HFC. X pipe will be paired with my Vorsteiner Ti catback.

Planning to have the cage stripped (power coated) and sprayed hyper blue during the fall/winter season.
