Shes finished; what do you think?

Slamaster1261 · 06-25-2011, 10:40 AM

got the VMR V701 on with KWV1 suspension on looks great drives a little bumpy but manageable and not as rough as i thought it would be. still a lot smoother than having RFT. i love the stance it has. i think it looks really good after all this. post what you think... also on the way i have jb4 and smoked side marker lights. what else should i do?

i have a want for some amber-gones as well if anyone knows of a great set to get. thanks. good or bad...post it.

so in the order pictured its stock, then with 19" wheels only and no KWV1, and then with the KWV1.

other mods i have installed are injen dci and rear LED tailights smoked. ask any qestions ill try to be as helpful and give as good as review as possible.

looks good. i think it's tucked a bit too much in the back. i personally prefer the "raked" look.

spiike32 · 06-25-2011, 10:53 AM

LOL she's not finished yet.....

you have black grills so get shadowline trim to match it
tint
dimisa/cyba tips
gotta get rid of the amber in the headlights
mtech/m3 rep sideskirts
motorized swift license plate or bumper plugs
I see no radar mounted on the car so a V1 or some sort of radar detector
upgraded angel eyes (either LED bulbs or OSS AE's)
painted key hole cover for driver side door

... that's just cosmetics. Do you have forged diverter valves? catless downpipes? upgraded intercooler?

no sir, you're not finished yet.

Quasimodem · 06-25-2011, 12:35 PM

So no requirements for chains in Alaska? Because unless that is an air system you installed there certainly is no room left now.

WWONG · 06-25-2011, 01:26 PM

You have the first E9X I've seen with that deflector thing in front of the sunroof. Now I see why.

FVM3 · 06-25-2011, 01:38 PM

rear wheels are tucked in. Also get the blacklines or go back to stock, not the led ones

what's wrong with the LED blacklines? I like them...but +1 on the window trim, coding for ambers and tints. But yes, drop looks good OP. I would, as of others have said, have the back a little higher though.

Lol. 1992 called, it wants its deflector back.

Seriously, the car has those built in fins that pop up when roof open, eliminating all need for a deflector.

Goettler_Boost · 06-25-2011, 04:09 PM

Stance? I see none.

"1992 called". Oh man I almost died laughing when I read this.

You guys are harsh.

Slamaster1261 · 06-25-2011, 08:27 PM

thanks guys for all the replies. it rains a lot here in the summer so that explains the deflector thing. so 1992 can wait until i move haha. and i was wondering if the rears were setting to low. the dont rub or anything, but yea ill check it out. tints are also on my list. i like the LED blacklines so to each their own. when i said she was finished i was just talking about the wheels and susp.... im never done.

AWLE902008 · 06-25-2011, 08:56 PM

It rains alot here in Alabama and the OEM deflector is just fine, but if you like it keep it. Personally i'm not a fan of the deflector-first time i seen it on a E90 or the window deflectors. As for the led tails, i heard they short out or give errors. I have OEM blacklines, but your looks good to me. Led tails are not for everyone. As for the rear height, I'm no expert but it looks fine to me.
I would suggest to loose the chrome and paint the strips on the bumper. It doesn't match your wheels or grill...seems out of place. And loose the Amber.

AWLE902008 · 06-25-2011, 08:58 PM

oh paint your calipers

iNinja · 06-25-2011, 08:58 PM

Clean ride, I feel the window trim is fine as it is. But next should be 35% tint and then start looking at mtech sides then rear, trust me, it evens out the entire look from the side.

AlterZgo · 06-25-2011, 09:01 PM

Spacers!

bsamoul · 06-26-2011, 01:14 AM

Lose the deflector
