Awesome rides!!

Btw, for those who changed the grills themselves....is it easy? Do i simply pull out and clip back or is a screwdriver needed?

Thinking of plastidipping....

Cheers!

So easy a caveman can do it.

Might be harder to plastidip it than to swap it

I think it's the 1300- it's their smallest one I believe. Got it for $350 after 20% off at Sport Chalet. Only $189 for the racks from GetBMWParts, they rule and are OEM. Don't ever buy the Thule-Sold racks, they were being priced out near $400+.

Here is mine when I got it:






I only have those mods on it right now:

-BMW Performance shift knob
-BMW Performance rear spoiler
-BMW Performance CF mirrors
-Arkym front lip
-Black kidney and side grills
-Dinan mufflers
-AFE intake
-tint Windows



Next summer, I will have CCW Lm20 in 18x9 18x10 for the track and AC Schnitzer Type 2 split rims in 19x9.5 19x10.5 for the street with Michelin PSS 255/275.

Here is how the CCW look on the car before I rebarreled them to proper M size with bigger lips all around, they were on my E46 XIT before

Thanks, Hujan! I love the heck out of this car too. It serves a lot of different duties, one of them being a 'looker'.

I really like what you did with the gloss black wrap. Is that a BMW performance spoiler? If so, is that wrapped gloss black as well or left CF?

Yea the roof wrap came out great. Wish I didn't have a sunroof but atleast now its not as noticeable with the black roof

yes its a performance spoiler and its cf. Currently its the only cf part on the car but probably go for diffuser and front lip later.

Could you recommend the shop you used for the wrap? Also any closer pics?

I used http://www.exclusivevinyl.com. They took off the rails and the fin to complete the wrap.
