My first M...

SickJzb · 07-02-2010, 12:35 AM

Hey everyone,

I can't tell you how excited I am as a proud owner of an 09 e92 M3 Jerez black on black, carbon fiber roof, 6 speed with all options. I've been trolling on the forum for almost a year and searching for this impossible combination. I bought the car in NoCal and had a blast driving it home to SoCal where I dropped it off at the bodyshop and already started the modding. I just picked up the car from the bodyshop where they filled in the reflectors, clay bar and detailed the car. I bought a Vorsteiner trunk from radz182, matte black M3 badge and black roundels from Rennspec and had the bodyshop install those as well.

Tomorrow Rennspec is installing Eibachs, Saturday tintplus will be tinting, I just received my order from IND with matte black grills and color matched side markers with light tinted lenses and I put down a deposit with Gintani for a x-pipe with hfc, Gintani sport exhaust (ceramic coated), pulley and dyno tune. At which point I will need to be put in a straight jacket as I won't be able to control myself.

Look forward to meeting up with everyone in SoCal soon.

My photo skills are garbage but here she is.....
I'll be taking new photos tomorrow when the eibachs are on as well as the matte black grills and color matched side markers.

Thanks. I know it's still pretty much stock but it is amazing how many heads turn just driving down the street.

Let me tell you if I could swing a supercharger this car would be sitting at Gintani right now.

ooowowizstev · 07-02-2010, 03:31 AM

I've always imagined it to look out of place to put the CSL style trunk on a stock car, but seeing your car, I have changed my mind. Flows well!

Alex@Alpine · 07-02-2010, 03:37 AM

Congrats!

JMAT · 07-02-2010, 04:01 AM

Yes, it is! I am not used to that from my previous 335, but the E92 M3 is turning heads left and right. I've had a guy do the "i'm not worthy" bow-down in a parking lot as I was leaving work one day. lol

tha_good_life · 07-02-2010, 09:43 AM

congrats! Looks like my car when I first purchased it. Minus the trunk.

BMWDEMON · 07-02-2010, 12:25 PM

12:03 · 07-02-2010, 05:17 PM

Like the car. First NON OE trunk I have seen that I can stand
