mrad01's e92 335i Motorsport

mrad01 · 01-14-2008, 01:02 AM

Hi all,
Just thought I would post up some pics of my car. I bought it as a BMW factory Motorsport model which included the body kit, black shadowline, 19" wheels, lowered suspension, Motorsport interior etc. I asked the dealership to do the 35% tints also.

Since then, I have added a Remus Quad Exhaust system - which sound amazing. A little bit louder than the stock exhaust - but not too loud like some. I was experiencing a little bit of drone while cruising at 2000rpm - turned out to be a badly mounted license plate! We put felt tape on the back of the plate and remounted it - drone GONE! Make sure the items on the back of your car are well mounted.

Next, the e92 M3 rear spoiler - this looks hot. It is just a small lip spoiler - but it makes a lot of visual difference.

And just now, I added black kidney interiors. I ordered matt black kidneys from jlevisw.com, and used the chrome surrounds from the factory kidneys. I tried the all black kidneys - just wasn't to my taste. Those with a keen eye will see the radar detector behind the left kidney - awesome built in model with remote display. (Bel STi-R)

I'm thinking of adding splitters and consider any other ideas people have!

looks very good

not a big fan of the chrome surrounding and black center because it makes it looks like a 325/8 or 525 and a lower model when you actually have a 335. either go all chrome or all black

By blacklines..do you need the black trim surrounding the windows?

yes. I'm sure that's what they were called. The standard 335 has chrome I think...

I always thought they were referred to as the shadowline, while blackline=the tail lights people buy to replace the stock tail lights on their E90 and E91.

Why? it is a BMW factory M model....

I know the US doesn't get this config yet - but the rest of the world do...

haha its just because some people believe that the M badge only belongs on true m's... the m3, m5, and m6... regardless of the m-package you can get on most bmws...

I guess you are right...I believe this is the formula...

M3= M3 badge
M5= M5 badge
M6= M6 badge
Motorsport = M badge

I understand some people might think M badges are for true M cars - but BMW don't agree. They supply the M badge themselves!

Those tips are huge!!! Nice mods.

that's the thing, the US won't ever get an ///m package, but they will get something like it called the "performance package"

Nice analogy but most people will flame you with that. I was looking to do the same thing however once I debadged the car, I didn't want to add anything.

BTW ... car looks hot!!!

Your hood needs adjusting down. Quite easy to do !!

Hey, I spotted that also....is there a DIY anywhere?

Panoz · 01-14-2008, 02:33 AM

Congrats...Nice car.

You urgently need wheels. The M-pack wheels are "poor" IMO.

Busha · 01-14-2008, 03:38 AM

Wheels gotta go ??? Wheels are GREAT !

Spool · 01-14-2008, 04:25 AM

Car looks great...

M badge definitely gotta go...

Gen_E92 · 01-14-2008, 06:09 AM

looks clean man, nicely done...but those tips are a little too big IMO, and +1 on no M badge.

remmib · 01-14-2008, 07:50 AM
