Hard to tell from that angle, with that lighting. It's nothing but black void from sidewall to fender crease.

Yes a side shot in the daylight would help a lot more.

Even though the pic lacks any sort of detail to answer the question you proposed your car more than likely looks just like any other factory M3.

OP - Did you buy your car second hand?
Based on your stance (and the minute details therein), it looks like you have KW V3 coils and most likely H&R 20mm spacers all around. Great work. |

LAWL to everyones comment. I should have posted a better picture.. smh.. Ill take a better picture tomorrow morning and post it in this thread. But to answer some questions, I dont have any suspension work or spacers, also the car was a lease take over with 12k miles on it. I know comp pkg lowers the car but I've also compared my car to other people who have comp pkg and mine is definitely a little lower and spaced out wider.. lol I'm not bragging about anything here.. I just honestly wanted to know if there is something that could be wrong but taken from your answers, I'm fine I guess

Probably nothing wrong, but have a look under there and see if your struts are plain black, or if they're more blingy.

The previous owner may have added springs and a spacer and BMW just never caught it.

OP, your springs has gone. Better change to get back to normal height. While you're at it, throw some dirt on those 359' and you'll look like the rest of us..😊

A ZCP car is about the same height as my non-EDC car with Dinan springs. Except the rear is a little lower with the dinan.

So I went to my local BMW dealership because I'm still under warranty, and they said everything is completely stock, no bend or breaks in any pieces but they did recommend an alignment on my front two wheels lol... Also the tech said sometimes when its very hot outside, metal expands and relaxes by millimeters so that could be why my springs may look a little lower.. but other than that nothing is wrong with the car besides the alignment! WOOOOO
