Char's 09' M3 (need some minor mod suggestions?)

ctown113 · 08-28-2010, 11:57 AM

got a deal i couldnt pass up on these.. i didnt wana go too "flashy" or anything, so i went with these. i was also thinking about springs, but considering i drive to and from NYC everyday, maybe i'm better off not? besides the wheels, i just had 6000k HID white angel eyes installed and i just received my painted bumper reflectors.. any other minor mod suggestions? not looking too crazy, but kind of getting into hookin up my ride

let me know! and thanks!

nusevad · 08-28-2010, 12:21 PM

looks like its off to a good start...the front could really use some spacers as the pics show that it is really tucked in...whats the offset for the front wheels?

Jet335i · 08-28-2010, 12:25 PM

spacers for sure and a small drop.

ctown113 · 08-28-2010, 12:28 PM

hmmm.. bro, i wish i could tell you.. not the slightest..but i keep reading that using spacers with these wheels causes vibrations above speeds of 70mph so i was hesitant to get them.. btw, i see youre in jersey too? your ride is SICK!!!

ctown113 · 08-28-2010, 12:30 PM

pretty new at this.. i hate to sound like a rookie, but i am :P where's a good place to get some spacers? and do i need to put them all 4's? or can i just go with the front? kind of iffy about springs..the roads in NYC literally rape my suspension as it is..

TK-421 · 08-28-2010, 12:48 PM

tint and bmw performance grills

M3PGH · 08-28-2010, 12:49 PM

black grills and gills

Kev · 08-28-2010, 12:56 PM

I would get the M3 Edition black chrome grilles and side grilles just to be different

datbimmerdoe · 08-28-2010, 02:58 PM

looks great so far... +1 on tint, grills, and gills.

with proper installation you will be fine, its a personal thing tho, if the gap doesnt bother you then its all good.

Thanks, i just changed up the look...mostly stock for now except exhaust/diffuser and minor cosmetic mods. Ill get new wheels next spring.

M3Alpine · 08-28-2010, 09:03 PM

wheels look good

tightie · 08-28-2010, 09:20 PM

looks like a mini m6

TailHappyM3 · 08-28-2010, 09:58 PM

Love the color and the wheels look great on the M3 too. Don't tint.... looks sweet as is. Just needs some TLC.

JCtx · 08-28-2010, 10:08 PM

Wheels look good. Are those of identical specs as M3s, including width and offsets?

H2 · 08-29-2010, 12:49 AM

How about some new pedals? This link has some ideas.
