E90 TIAG progression update

I've done a few more mods to my car such as splitters, spacers, debadge and such. I am loving the way its starting to look. I am scared to lower it because Ive heard the roads are bad in Fayetteville, where I will be driving a lot. Do many people scrape on bad roads with Eibach Pro springs? Any other suggestions are welcome.

Mods so far:
Debadge
Gloss black kidneys
Mtec v3 angle eyes
splitters
CF roundels
reverse taillight red tint
muffler delete
20mm rear spacers
gloss black shadowline

your off to a great start with the mods, and +1 on the M-Tech front/rear and also a new set of shoes

btw your exhaust tips need a little adjustment, but nonetheless keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!

TiAg FTW!

With springs, you are no where close to scrapping. Just save up and invest in some coilovers. You'll regret it in the end if you dont.

I'm digging the tails.
I love blacklines, but the all red look is refreshing

Get some wheels and lower it. But it looks solid. Hows the muffler delete sound? I wanted to do one on my e90 330.

Thanks for the input! Ya Ill take your word for it on the coilovers. Mtech rear with a CF diffusor is definitly on the list with a CF spoiler. The tires are pretty new. Did you mean new wheels and tires?

Thanks for the help sounds like coilovers are the much better way to go.

It sounds great to me! Ive had it for about 3 months know. You kinda gotta talk a little louder in the cabin at around 2k rpm but I love it.

If you're keeping the front bumper, they sell those horizontal silver bars on the bottom in black. They're OEM.

Ya they are non RFT tires. RFT are terrible from what Ive heard. Ill probably keep the wheels for now tho and just get coilovers.
