The end of a Work Still In Progess...

SGxi · 07-23-2010, 05:19 PM

Long story short, kind of getting tired of dealing with the problems I have trying to order replacement parts for anything in Canada, and it has taken a lot of time, patience and money to get the car to this point, but I'm running out of patience and I don't have the time to deal with it.

I was going to post up proper photos of the car once everything is done, but it looks like it will never get done and I am putting it back to stock, so it's easler for me to get the car serviced and just use it as my daily driver.

I share with you a few very crappy photos of my car.

The car:

2007 E90 328xi (Canadian spec)
Colour: Sparkling Graphite
Options: Steptronic/Canadian Premium Package
Interior trim: Titanium matt (that's what they call it here)

Exterior Mods:
Custom vorsteiner hood with fade effect on power dome
M-tech kit
Wedsport SA67-R F: 19x8 et 30, R: 19x9 et 30
Euro headlights
LUX 5.0
Blacklines
Matt black grills
35% tint all-around

Interior Mods:
BMW Performance steering wheel (non electronic)
BMW Performance handbrake grip and boot
BMW Performance shift knob and boot
Euro split armrest
Euro light switch (rear fog enabled)
Retrofitted homelink mirror
Retrofitted bluetooth
BMW stainless steel pedals

Other Mods:
Brembo 4-piston 355/345 mm BBK with calipers painted in car colour
KW V3 with 2023 front and 2017 rear kw springs
UUC front and rear sway bars

What I had already planned and bought for the car but did not install:

Vorsteiner CSL trunk
Supersprint Exhaust
M-tech CF splitters

Hope you like the car, and if you are still reading this, I'd like to thank the following people:

Eic @ PYSpeed for giving me an awesome deal for the hood
Gary @ Rennspec (I think he is gone?), for giving me a good deal on the brembo and getting them refinished in SG
Albert @ Speedstar, a local shop who did most of the installs
A bunch of E90Post Canadian members whom I met and those who helped me with installing parts on this car, especially ctgazer and soni.
