Monaco Blue on Gold w/ Quads *Budget Build*

Evimero335 · 06-01-2015, 11:34 PM

Decided to keep my car after I stripped it down completely stock. Spent all of May revising it. I'm quite impressed with the fitment of the M3 rep front, mtech rep rear, and eBay quad tip diffuser. I can vouch for these vendors if you're trying to mod on a budget, but not sacrifice quality.

May Mods:

M3 Rep Front
Mtech Rep Rear
eBay CF quad diffusor
Cyba SS rolled tips w/ muffler delete
EMS black kidney grill
19 x 8.5/9.5 35 offset LM Reps eBay
225/35 & 255/30 Nangkang

Muffler delete clip

Oh yeah, im dropped on H&R Race Springs. It wasn't a May mod though.

nice whip mate, just curious why'd you strip down to stock and then not decide to sell it/keep it that way?

1edyson · 06-01-2015, 11:59 PM

Amazing car. I've been thinking of doing gold /polish rims on my car too.

I was looking at an X6 as a replacement, but had a change of heart lol

Looks good. I like your diffuser!

dbworld4k · 06-02-2015, 12:22 AM

Nice.

But say no to Nankangs... Seriously. At least put some General UHPs or something.

Alen E90 · 06-02-2015, 12:42 AM

Nice ride, only thing that I'd suggest you do is get some spacers for the front/back and also IMO regular E92 gloss black grills would look a lot better.

Thanks for sharing the pics

wdeerfield · 06-02-2015, 06:27 AM

Nice look ride you've got there but i would highly recommend different kidney grills. they just dont look right! i see some small fitment issues with the bumper but overall it looks great. the wheels compliment the car nicely. a performance spoiler and its done!

Blindside_137 · 06-02-2015, 08:20 AM

Looks great! But +1 to the kidney grille comments.

grizz311 · 06-02-2015, 08:58 AM

Looks great man, link to diffuser on ebay?

BeastMode335i · 06-02-2015, 03:58 PM

Looks real good man! Not a fan of those grills, they look E90'ish but the rest of the car is very nice!

+1, they remind me of pre-lci e90 grilles. The rest of the car is fantastic IMO

TwinTuning · 06-02-2015, 05:12 PM

Nice

ethanjoon · 06-02-2015, 05:15 PM

Any plans to black out the window trim?

HGreen335 · 06-02-2015, 05:27 PM

unique color combo. What vendor is the rear bumper from?

YouAreMyWorld · 06-03-2015, 05:54 AM

Personally, I'm not feeling those rims at all. The style, not the color.

The color is fine, the style of the rims.. just aren't my tastes.

Overall, you should change those kidney grills, as mentioned above--too E90ish.. and I've always disliked that about E90's.

Other than that, quality ride!

looking good OP

Only if I changed rims to a darker color. I think the trim compliments the lip of my rims now.

Thanks everyone...yeah I don't care for the black grill since it does look like an e90 grill. I didn't know I even ordered this style. ECS has so many different items numbers in their inventory. Which is a good thing, but you really got to pay attention to what you order.
