Bagged E90 M3 on Airrex

[rdoctor]

OP, its your car so do whatever makes you happy. You posted on a mostly non-slammed forum so of course you were opening up yourself for some negative comments. I personally don't get the super slammed and stretched look (bags or no bags) and I never will (especially on an M3)... but then again I don't need to get it. It's just fashion. Some like it, and some hate it. Kind of like the fashion statement below

E90 Post......Where Diversity lives....or does it?

Yes the bags that came with the kit are the standard bags.

sorry dude, wrong car, wrong style
do it on a 1998 VW Cabrio

Luckily... im not a physician. Im just another patient who shows up to other patients with saggy jeans.

but dont say bags can perform like proper coilovers. thats ridiculous.

It may sound ridiculous, but hopefully some will be able to learn about how bags have came along from years ago. It's not what it used to be. I just wish some were open minded...

I think the pics are just wayyyy too low for my tastes but its cool to see something different on the forum.

The rear is too low i agree, I've had since adjusted them and will post pics later. But, it'll have seats and a cage installed so I'm not sure if i should
But the funny thing is, when i air up and throw on some te37s or apex... nobody can even tell. It'll just be a seated and caged car on track wheels and all of a sudden i went from dapper to track bro.

"air bags" are not what they used to be...it really has changed for a positive over the years.

Laying frame on an M3 with a cage and racing seats is stupid.

Yup, i expected the negative comments. However, it seems like people responding are more outraged about it. Hehe.

Idk what will happen once the s/c goes on... they might be back on it

[AYEDEE]

Lover not a hater here. This car is sikk can't get over it. Keep them pics coming

[Jaguar]

Ghetto and trashy. Makes me want to get rid of my m3 since this horrible trend has spread from primered '94 civics and gangster caddys and is now infecting this bloody car.

[Sandye90m3]

I don't understand the hate?

OP, can't you change the ride height in a flash with a module in the car?

Normal ride height is just a button press away.

Yes it has 3 presents. i use one for park height, one for drive height, and the last for all the way up to get over large driveways.

Haha... I keep forgetting to take pics when its all the way up!



... there goes on the Recaros

[khanhdom]

people are overreacting. there are 3 presets, and what people are seeing is obviously the hard park height. Obviously the OP isn't going to track his car, so how it handles is irrelevant to him. Also he might not be able to handle as good as ohlins, but airrex is a good brand and it will ride and handle good enough for most people.

I actually purchased some air cups for my car, which is different from air bags. I ride on my coilovers and air up when I have to clear obstacles. If there are track people who wants the best of both world, you can look at my route.

Lookin good bro! Keep it up! ...don't trip about what the sheep say in here. lol

[phrozen06]

They wouldn't produce Bags for an E9X M if there wasn't a market for it.

I think you really need to show the three different ride heights of the vehicle to shut everyone up. Then again, you don't have to prove anything to anyone.

In my opinion, car looks great. Obviously, the pictures that you are showing are parking height, because that would be nearly impossible to drive with it that low.

You're not their target market.

haha that was cute. At least E9x owners are Monolithic these days.
