Looks good, I'll give you credit where it is due.

Not sure I would do it though. I only hope this is a city cruiser car and you treat it as such.

I don't have a converted E90 either but there are a couple of other members who do have a E92 converted to a M3. I don't understand why you or anyone really cares what he does with his money though. Why do so many members pay a couple of grand for the M3 bumpers/skirts or put cf parts on there cars? its because they like the look not because its going to make them go faster. Maybe hes happy with the power of his car but whats to spice up the exterior a bit its not like hes whoring the M3 badge or anything...thats just my .02

The factory accessories and dealer extras, of course, can make a significant difference.

The cars are more expensive in Asia is due to import duties. In Hong Kong, we have 35-100% percent duty. After USD63000, we have to pay 100% duty on vehicles.
Oh, I didn't look at the OP's location!!! Yes your right about the currency mark up on these cars!

Nice work!! Everything looks to be tastefully done. Excellent choice on the wheels too.

Its true that in the states, the cost of a E93 + cost of your conversion is probably equal to (or more than) the cost of the M3... We're also a bit spoiled here because they also cost about 1/3 the price of one in HKG.

The chick magnet is officially finished, ready for a cruise around LKF

Yes I guess I would agree in some way....I also didn't realize that he was from Hong Kong which the mark up on these cars are ridiculous.

Looks good!

The only thing I would recommend....double check the bumper/hood gap
