Cyba scoops installed =)

Looks great as always man. Id love to see a pic from the front - like 20 feet back? How much do the scoops stand out? Are they noticeable?

Just a couple of updates!!

Ordered some carbon fiber vinyl to wrap my interior and also to wrap my new PROSPLITTERS side skirt extensions! Should be coming in soon and i'll take some pics of the install process

Kidninja · 09-03-2014, 04:44 PM

ProSplitters Side Skirt Extension arrived and wasted no time wrapping them up in the vinyl!!

Fitment looks good, i ordered a size 78.5" for stock side skirt. will install probably in a few weeks when i also wrap my interior!

ProSplitters review and install:

Ordered some ProSplitters for my car and I am pretty satisfied!

Took about a week to ship which was not bad at all
Pretty simple, just tell them what size you want (for me on stock side skirt was 78.5"). For $135 shipped, can't go wrong

Install:
Test fit to make sure everything is lined up
Use double sided tape on the part going under the car
Tape that into the bottom of the side skirt
Screw in some self tapping screws into the side skirt
DONE. Photos below

Those are some really clean Wheels! Good job on Splitters

Great idea wrapping the side skirt extension in CF. Looks great.

How was wrapping the edges? Never wrapped anything in Vinyl before but I am considering getting a roll for my lip and side skirt extensions before installing.

Nice Monaco blue! Ive been working my way through modding my e90 MB link in my footer. Not tempted to transform that front end? M3 front in MB looks mean!

Thank you! Yea... maybe eventually probably will get the 1M front bumper that will soon be coming out for the E92!

Thanks, wasn't bad at all but could have been cleaner =P

Those wheels look so clean, you should seriously consider a stud/lug conversion. The current bolts seem to pull attention away from how nice your wheels look.

Thanks! Thought about it, which do you suggest?

Anyways, here's some more photos from an impromptu photoshoot

Good looking pictures.

For stud conversions I would recommend Motorsport Hardware:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=885828

68mm (no wheel spacers) / 75mm (up to 12mm spacers)

The lug nuts are all personal preference but I like the Muteki sr48. You can just google search them they come in tons of colors.

Kidninja · 10-17-2014, 01:57 PM

FINALLY had some time to wrap my interior carbon fiber!
Process was pretty straight forward but now my fingers are throbbing after everything!

ALSO did a little extra bonus of trying out some striping in the interior, let me know what you guys think!

Alen E90 · 10-17-2014, 07:52 PM

The CF trim looks really nice and I like the red stripe but only on the dash trim, not feeling it so much on the lower trim. Thanks for sharing the pics!
