SonicMS's very own customer appreciation mega pic thread!

Yup it's about that time guys, a thread created just for pure eye pleasuring. This thread will get updated on a frequent basis with cars that come out of the shop with everything from simple bolt ons to full blown modifications.


Here is an E92 M3 that we just worked on yesterday.

Mods include:

- Satin black OEM Competition wheels
- Verstrasse spacers, front: 15 mm, rear: 12mm
- Akrapovic titanium slip on exhaust with carbon tips
- H&R sport springs
- Arkym carbon rear diffuser

This car is a beast and sounds killer:

Nice! I love the work you guys do over there!

That E46 M3 with the RAC RG63s looks incredible. Those wheels pop so much.

Finally our last customer of the day last Friday, He had to beat rush hour traffic from Danville to install his new set of Apex ARC8 Square setup. This color was out of stock at Apex, we have to powder coat them ourselves.

Thx Glenn..Hopefully the traffic back didn't beat you up..LOL

See you again Saturday for the KW install..

Great builds.

That Silverstone E92 is seriously my type of build! Looks OEM. Naturally Aspirated. Sticky tires. Streetable. Practical.

I love it!

The GC Street Plates are compatible with OE springs and KW springs.
