Pics of El Matador

RioGrandeValley · 04-26-2009, 08:53 AM

Latest pics of my ride. It was a little cloudy but no rain. Input much appreciated. Pics taken @ Las Colinas, Irving, Tx.

ABSSF80 · 04-26-2009, 09:17 AM

really nice, maybe some black grills would look good with that dark tint

DFW_MThree · 04-26-2009, 10:28 AM

Looks good man, Cant wait to get my spacers. Id still say get some blacklines tho they would make the back look better. Less red blended together.

M3 Piotr · 04-26-2009, 10:31 AM

Looks clean.

mr_nelson · 04-26-2009, 11:39 AM

very good taste

mattfenne · 04-26-2009, 12:06 PM

Very nice! Love the colour - the wheels and tints set it off

NiVeDh · 04-26-2009, 12:58 PM

Matte black grills and blacklines would make this even better! Maybe some Ambergones too?

veightkiller · 04-26-2009, 01:00 PM

Nice shots!

Mach@M-Force_Design · 04-26-2009, 01:01 PM

Amazing, always loved red e90s!

RicoSuave · 04-26-2009, 01:02 PM

love the wheels man!

McLuVan · 04-26-2009, 01:11 PM

very nice
are you going to do blacklines?

JCLBoston · 04-26-2009, 01:23 PM

nice car..questionable name..

RioGrandeValley · 04-26-2009, 03:06 PM

As they say nothing wrong with constructive criticism! Exterior pretty much done except for LEDs to replace the stock angel eyes. I've always been a fan of red with chrome accents such as my '00 GMC Sierra I had back in the day, red '04 VW GTI 1.8T red/chrome as well so will be staying away from any black add ons. I figured El Matador is much better than El Tomate no?
Friday went to the local BM dealer and in the bay was a blue 335i with nice wheels and a white 530i with a set of wheels as well but mine somehow got the most attention in there. 3 people complimented it there so I figured I must be doing something right! Thanks again all...

E92White · 04-26-2009, 03:12 PM

Love the color bro ! red is hot..any other mods planned ?

Tallest · 04-26-2009, 03:23 PM

i really like your car dude, looks great! wheels, combo, everything. like others said, blacklines and black grilles will make it perfect.

what are the tyre-wheel specs you running front and back? Looks very good on 18s. Also, is the car lowerd or standard sport?

Rogue_Marine · 04-26-2009, 04:24 PM

Nice clean ride

As mentioned before, some blacklines and black grill would compliment it well.

Yoshii · 04-26-2009, 04:25 PM

Thanks running:
Front 18x8.5 ET of 30
Rear 18x9.5 ET of 25
Rear H&R TRAK+ Spacers 10mm pushes rear wheel/tire out just a bit. Very minor rubbing when riding solo or with 2 people only. More than that and it's rub a dub away! Thanks again for the comments.

nice!
