$1000 To Spend - HELP!

jdink · 02-07-2008, 03:12 PM

I should rename this thread the "How to go from spending $1,000 in mods to $10,000 in mods!"

Tinting is mod #1 in my book

Especially on a black car like yours

And do something about that gross amber on the headlights, really bugs me on those E90's. Lastly, angel eyes, go for Lux 5.0.

Those would be my top 3 in that order

Tint is being installed on the 13th. Any opinions on %? i'm leaning somewhere between 20% and 35%... 35% is legal in Washington. Not trying to look to mafia/ganster so i'm looking at closer to the 35.

have you thought of the OEM CF trunk spoiler?? i always think that is a good mod for the e90
my friend also has a black sapphire e90 and he has blacklines and the CF spoiler..the rear look clean and nice

id probably go with a front m aero bumper for the e90 before i did the spoiler... any pics of your friends rear end?

Have an offer locally of 1500 on my 162's and RFTS.... thinking CSL reps for that price... any opinions of a black sapphire e90 w/ 35% tint and 19 inch gun metal CSLs?

I have 20% on my car, and I think it's perfect. I'll post pics, after I install my front splitters.

So.... it turns out that i'm not moving for another 6 months or so, meaning my rent is going to stay the same, meaning that i'll be spending about 400-500 less a month then planned, which means I have another 3 grand to drop into the car.

Suggestions?

Crappy pictures with my phone.... blacklines and tint. Went with the 35%. More professional durring the day and at night it is plent dark to give a sleak look.

Did you ever decide what mods to do next?

I'm thinking about getting the blacklines, and Predator Ice w/ matching Mtech fogs = ~$400
