I'm loving this ride

cyclicoyster · 08-31-2015, 07:03 AM

I've had this car for close to 4 years now. Didn't want to modify the BMW too much, wanted to keep it as close to OEM as possible. I think she's pretty much done with the exception of some painted reflectors and smoked side markers. Got a set of 189's from a forum member, and an M3 rep trunk lip. Really, the only big mod was the drop on V1's. Anyways, here's my weekend cruiser.

Very nice! Even the exhaust tips are shiny!

painted reflectors will clean up the front very nicely. nothing better than a lowered bmw looking all OEM. 287s look great on there

I have painted reflectors on my E92 but i like the OE reflectors on a Sedan.

Nice! But those are 287s - even nicer than the 189s and were for the LCI 335i sedan. Looks great.

The lug nut is not in the spoke on 287, on 189 it is on the spoke.

Nice ride. The 287's look great, but I would suggest an M-Sport rear as well!

Motorsport.Nick · 09-01-2015, 09:18 AM

I love how subtle.

cpie168 · 09-01-2015, 10:14 AM

OP, are those exhaust tips aftermarket?

They're supposed to be the tips used on the e90 m3..i'm not 100% sure but that's what i was told at the shop i had them installed at, i was a newbie back then. Cut off my stock ones and welded these on. I believe these are 80mm stainless steel.

cpie168 · 09-01-2015, 08:06 PM

They look sooooo sporty! The more I look at them the more I love them!! Wish they're available as an upgrade!

cyclicoyster · 09-02-2015, 06:37 AM

^^thanks bud. Yeah, it's a nice inexpensive alternative to actually getting a full exhaust done. I was just going for looks anyways. Trying to keep it clean.

BoogeyMan'sBMW · 09-02-2015, 10:05 AM

Car looks great man. Very clean!

Bimmerific · 09-02-2015, 09:38 PM
