I like your overall theme but i am not crazy about the truck spoiler, IMO that needs to go.

But i do really like the roof spoiler alot. Also the silver CF is a nice touch.

Definately wouldn't end friendly for you in the US, but I give you an A for effort. There is just too much going on with that car and you are just cluttering such an amazing piece of machinery.


Still a gorgoues car though, and you seem to be quite the enthusiastic modder.

Viga... great guy and had the chance to meet him in person, when he stopped by to purchase the CF Grilles and roundel.

This car is definitely unique in every angle. Although it is very different and may not suite the tastes of others, I can tell from the smile that I see on his face when he explained to us the work, time and effort that he's put on it, creating his own unique M, that this is very special and worth every penny and sweat.

Of course, I had my camera handy and decided to take a few snaps.

hope you like it, Viga and thanks for stopping by.

yikes. Since you asked, I will be honest. I do not care for anything that has been done to that car. I prefer a more subtle look, closer to stock, but with some minor changes..

I do think that the caliper cover is a genius idea, and you might be able to make some money selling those!

I don't think you guys are following his theme. He mentioned he has a rally car background so his designs aren't going to be subtle and understated

BEBE's car for instance is a wild and cool design too some people like it some don't but its unique from all the other stuff on the road

Hey PM me, I live downtown, but looks like we know a lot of the same people. I would like to check out some of your stuff in person. I know Andre with the M5 from Westmont, but currently get service done at Perillo, maybe I'd switch over

To each his own. With that said, he did want people's opinion.

Sorry to be so candid but I think it ghastly and cheap looking. I like Rally cars but they don't have fake carbon parts or unnecessary parts. Everything is purpose built. The carbon sticker on the side mirrors looks horrible. Doesn't even cover the whole mirror. The brake caliper covers make the breaks look fake. Almost in the same league as people who paint their rear drums on civics. I hope this car was a salvage and did not start as a shinny new M3. The BMW designers would be jabbing their eyes out with neddles if they saw what has been done to it. I am going to stop now because I could continue going about how horrible it looks. I am sorry. It sounds like you are a nice guy but I needed to be honest. All that may look marginally better on a Subaru as it at least is not a good looking car to begin with.

The brake covers look similar to the cheesy stuff on ebay. I decline to comment on the rest. Lets just say I would have spent my money differently.

Unique that's for sure. I like the brake caliper covers. Any chance of them "popping" out?

OP: I admire the effort and originality that you invested into your project, but like others said, a few of the mods are overboard and/or unnecessary. You might be happy with the current status of the project, but here is my two cents:
  • Remove rear spoiler (priority)
  • Remove silver carbon from mirrors, side vents, etc
  • Paint wheels to black
  • Remove caliper covers
  • Instead of a matte overlay on the hood, what about doing the same two tone concept but using a carbon hood so it matches the roof? If not, I would remove the overlay entirely.
  • Remove the "M POWER" sticker on windshield
  • Probably a good idea to remove the "viga" stickers, although I get your intentions
Less is more in my opinion.
