My New Princess!

Barry Mackonier · 05-06-2013, 08:55 PM

Just purchased her about 2 weeks ago and stumbled across this forum so I thought I'd share. Never thought in a million years I'd ever purchase a BMW (scared of things going wrong) but I drove her and fell in love. Anyhow, here she is-

Dealer told me she came with BMW Performance Exhaust, does BMW install these from the factory? It sounds really nice, not ricey at all.

In before "take off M-badge" and "HID's in halogen housings. From the looks of the exhaust tips, it looks like its the performance exhaust. You should get gloss black grills, take the M-badge off, get OEM LCI projectors, and your front bumper repainted. Car looks great!

pics of whoever is attached to those legs sitting in shotgun.

jk.

congrats on the car. lose the M badge though.

KayMo · 05-06-2013, 09:10 PM

nice...i like the trunk spoiler and the rear diffuser but please take that M badge off

Kalidian · 05-06-2013, 09:11 PM

The performance exhaust doesn't come stock with any package I don't think, so you lucked out getting that with your car.

But yea the M badge has to go, right now. Also, what is that crap in your rear bumper diffusor area?

Looks like it was previously owned by a kid who wasn't happy with his N52. All in all though, great looking car, congrats! White always looks so damn clean.

kdbryce · 05-06-2013, 09:58 PM

congrats

m badge must go!!!!

and I'd ditch the headlights

lucky you got the performance exhaust, though

Barry Mackonier · 05-06-2013, 10:13 PM

Whats wrong with the M Badge, is that like a big no no in the BMW world? Its not like it says M3 on it. I'm not about fluffing up cars and making them look gookish but I really dont mind it. Thanks for the constructive criticism

moorlander · 05-06-2013, 10:16 PM

It's not an M

EvlShiftrE92 · 05-06-2013, 10:17 PM

M badge only for m power BMW

m3 m6 etc.....

EvlShiftrE92 · 05-06-2013, 10:18 PM

Even if I had an m3 IDE take the badge off I do these to all my vehicles looks cleaner in my opinion

F80M · 05-06-2013, 10:20 PM

More pix of those legs plz...?

RP256 · 05-06-2013, 10:21 PM

M badge is wackkkk but nice car, looks like it could use a little paint

Barry Mackonier · 05-06-2013, 10:25 PM

Damn, you mean to tell me my 3 series doesnt have 400 hp? I might need NOS I guess

Some creepers on this forum....lol +1 on getting rid of the m badge. You're lucky your e90 came with the whole msport bod PLUUSSS performance exhaust

Game · 05-07-2013, 03:36 AM

Looks like it could use a bit of work but congrats on the purchase.

Alen E90 · 05-07-2013, 03:39 AM

yes it's a big no no in the bmw world, well in the real world as well. but nice ride, i'd say get some real projector/hid headlights while you're taking the m badge off as well, but congrats on the ride!

Barry Mackonier · 05-07-2013, 12:06 PM

Thanks for all the comments everyone. I do need to get the front bumper re-sprayed. The car spent some time in Maryland and they use front plates...so there's some nails sticking out, which blows.

Does anyone know someone in the Tampa area that can re-paint the front? The rear bumper just has one little ding on it that I'm not worried about. I would like to get rid of the halogen bulbs and go strictly halo style.

I really like the carbon fiber rear, it sets the car off nice. What type of spoiler is installed on my car also?

The performance exhuast sounds reallllly nice. I've driven other 2009-10 328's and I noticed mine may have a little bit more kick to her. It may be placebo but do these exhaust add any hp?
