Car looks amazing! Love the HRE's.

I noticed you have something covering your filter cone, does it help with water?

Thanks! It helps keep debris out but probably not water.

Thanks.. it's actually brilliant white metallic. My e92 was Alpine White


I'm going to redo the interior and have a low compression engine built. They are working on the roll cage right now.

Here's a rendering I did of the interior.. which one do you guys think looks better?

Isn't this the car that had it's engine blow because of using 91 and 89 octane? Is that why you're building the motor now!?

Agree with this.

This car was amazing when I first ran into you at freebirds.
I didn't think it could get better, but damn.

I'm not usually a fan of green anything, but somehow it looks amazing here. Love the headlight accents too.

Agreed, there's a HUGE gap between the VT2 and VT3 setups.

Talking

I think the second pic on the interior would look better

I really like the way your car turned out I am loving the those lights. I am actually in SoCal right now myself I drove out here to have VF Engineering install a Special MFest Limited Edition Supercharger on my M3 . I can't wait to see how your engine build turns out on your car good stuff .

This isn't helping with my "I won't build my motor, babe" statement

Update: Custom Headlight work

As we can all agree, not much is lacking when it comes to this E90's looks.
Aesthetically there is little room for improvement, but perfection is a constant chase;

When H4nh wanted to take the car a step further, we decided to make some changes to the headlight assembly.
Collaborating with our friends at ONEighty we managed to drastically improve the visual appeal of the already gorgeous M3.

Update: In-House Fabricated HGMS E90 Roll Bar

Currently we are developing a Bolt-In Rollbar for the E90 M3. This Rollbar is constructed of 1 3/4" .120 Wall Seamless DOM Tubing, and utilizes 100% Tig Welded Construction.

This Roll Bar will be NHRA, IHRA, SCCA, and NASA Legal, and available in a few different options. These options include front stock & aftermarket seat fitment, as well as many finishing options. This rollbar is 100% designed, engineered, and fabricated In-House at HG Motorsports.

Updates, pricing, and photos to come.
