What was your first mod?

N55 · 12-06-2012, 02:38 AM

My new car was modded cosmetically by the dealer as soon as she came off the shipment. (BMW Performance Carbon Fiber Mirror Covers)

Then I picked up the BMW Performance Carbon Fiber Front Lip, Days after owning it.

3 months later, I pulled the trigger on the BMW Performance Carbon Fiber Rear Deck Spoiler

Yea the V1's should be awesome. I was actually going to hold off on doing them and do msport first but I got a deal I had to grab. They look close to new and I got them for $775 shipped so almost half price

From LTMW? I got a 50% off ST at the LTMW meet which I thought I got the one for KW but he said he'll make a deal and get 30% off KW for me. Wish I got the 50%

So took me longer to save the $ up now I finally have it.

Nope I actually just hunted for a deal on here for a while and found a nice used set with 10k miles that wasn't even on the guys daily driver. He used it for road courses so no snow or anything... He also cleaned them for me before shipping so they literally look brand new so all in all i think it was a good deal

Eric335 · 12-06-2012, 08:05 PM

Angel eyes, Procede, then AA Dps

Wow they look really clean, good job finding them

AFE intake.

All season rubber mounted on some Bremmer 04 wheels for the winter months.

Sunroof visor, mudflaps, and bumper protector are the next cheapo mods (on order from the stealership).

Need to install the AFE scoops still...

Splitter will be in bound soon.

In the first 5 minutes, I had my black grills on and roundel overlays. Safe to say this was my first mod and beginning of a long journey.

Attachment 792591

Later on in that day, still first day of ownership, I debadged and smoked out the headlights and taillights. (bear with me, I was still learning the do's and don'ts of the E90 world.

Attachment 792592

Attachment 792593

And fast forward to today:

Yo Mario, definitely need to know where you got those headlights from? Did you buy the whole unit?

kfriceman · 12-07-2012, 12:59 AM
