First few cosmetic mods on my E92 SG M3

kloh · 10-11-2009, 07:05 PM

I'm thrilled to finally have my Euro Delivery M3 back at home! Picked it up last friday night and worked on getting these cosmetic mods installed this weekend. I still have a bunch of other stuff to do, so this is just the beginning.

More photos can be found on my Flickr set, or on my blog which has a little writeup details if you're interested.

Enjoy the pics!

CF Hood Roundel and CF Kidneys:

CF Steering Wheel Roundel:

CF Side Gills with Monochrome M3 Emblems:

Smoked Reflectors:

CF Trunk Roundel & Monochrome M3 Emblems

Whole Package (so far):

That car is really clean. The paint is just brilliant! Love what you've done so far.

Be careful, though, because modding is habit forming. I swore I would leave my car stock. Then I thought it would be OK to get a set of track wheels and tires simply for better performance at the track. And now I have a BBK that I will be installing in a couple of weeks. And I'm even thinking of painted refectors and alum pedals.

haha - nice plate man, got lazy and did it straight across??

Don't wanna sound like an ass but is the M badge a little crooked?

Nawaaz · 10-11-2009, 08:30 PM

Love the Space Gray & 18's combo.

Excellent start on the mods.

AV9 · 10-11-2009, 08:44 PM

where'd you get the smoked reflectors?

Oh, I know it...I already have a bunch of other stuff planned. I need to pace myself, LOL.

I did get lazy, but also thought it would be pretty funny so I just went for it. I don't think the M badge is crooked, but the wide angle lens is definitely accentuating the curve.

Thanks...and "start" is right. I know it's going to be awhile before I'm done.

Got the reflectors from this seller on eBay.

very sick pics I think this is one of my new favorite colors.

biglare · 10-12-2009, 08:56 AM

Looks noice! Keep the mods comin!

kloh · 10-12-2009, 10:31 AM

Thanks everyone...I love the SG/FR combo as well. I was originally bummed that the darker graphite color was no longer available in 09, but right now, I'm thinking the SG is a perfect compliment to the darker CF.
