Welcoming my E92!

CravingBavaria · 10-24-2019, 01:36 PM

Well I finally found an E92 I wanted to buy!

I was initially looking for a black on black E92 ZCP, but that is far from what I ended up getting.

She's a 2011 ZCP that was custom ordered by the ONLY owner besides me. He has owned her until now and treated her like the Queen she is.

I'll post more pics soon, but she has full Fox Red interior with aluminum trim. A great looking combo!

Exterior modifications outside of stock are the obvious reflector covers and black kidney grilles. Also hard to tell is the side grilles are black instead of chrome. The windows are ceramic tint 30%.

One of the noticeable modifications for those that really know the E9x are the spacers. She has 10mm spacers in the front and 15mm in the back. Couple that with 275/255 Sport 4s, she looks agressive AF!

I am absolutely in love with this car. She is drop dead gorgeous and has never had anything repainted. Just over 60k miles and ready for 50k+ with me at the wheel. So excited to pick her up today!!!

Yep she looks phenomenal with spacers. The black side grilles are minimal but it all adds up!

They sure do!!! I was concerned that Alpine with the ZCP wheels would look kinda "whitewashed" but it looks incredible!

The 10mm front and 15mm rear look great. That is my style as well. I don't like the bulldog stance of having the larger spacer in the front.

I personally like the look of the smoked reflectors over the painted or clear reflectors on alpine white M3s with blacked out kidneys but all personal preference.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!!

Big fan of the stance with the spacers.

And I actually never thought about the smoked reflectors. I can see that looking very good too. My tastes can certainly change as time goes by...!

I'm back! Got some more pics of the 'ol gal. Treating me well (besides the brake vacuum pump failure... that was probably just a faulty sensor...)

Mods coming soon. Looking at the mode carbon GTS V1 lip, and a raised decklid spoiler in body color. Any suggestions on a reputable company I should choose for the spoiler? Not too drastic, but noticeable.

850tgul · 01-20-2020, 03:10 PM

Always thought a white zcp e92 looked so clean.

AW with Fox red is such a great combo. Let's see some interior pics.

Go with the OEM spoiler... (sorry just read you want body color spoiler so ignore my suggestion)

It's so hard to take interior pics that show it off. Let me see what I can do.

I did a little more research into the spoiler and Sam with mode carbon says they make a high kick spoiler for the E92 that isn't on their website. It's close as you can get to the M-performance high kick. There is a whole thread on it here I found out. He says they can paint it Alpine prior to shipping!

Wow and congratulations! Your post really shows how excited you are to have this car and I totally understand. Welcome!

Thank you! I've loved owning it so far. First car I've ever actually cared enough to clean myself. Going to do a full clay treatment in a few weeks!
