steel609 · 12-18-2013, 07:16 AM

J38 · 12-18-2013, 07:55 AM

You have inspired me to also share pictures. At last, here is my pet unicorn:

Chris_506 · 12-18-2013, 07:56 AM

Nice ride bro

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 08:12 AM

I should of thought about hosting the files before posting this hahahaha.

Whilst they are uploading heres a pic of my current set up

J38 · 12-18-2013, 08:21 AM

Looks pretty good. Taken with a phone?

Are more pics coming?

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 08:22 AM

So heres the e90, got her with about 65k on the clock which didnt really bother me as she was a diesel, first thing i was planning on doing was a remap but i just had to get rid of the horrendous 16" alloys first

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 08:24 AM

Iphone quality pics for now im afraid, Half tempted to get a good friend of mine to do a shoot on the e93, may wait till summers here so i can give her a damn good polish too

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 08:33 AM

Decided on some 18" mv2's, They were local and fairly priced so i went and picked them up, needed a bit of resto

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 10:49 AM

I think they came out good! Did the grilles whilst i was at it

DOMs335D · 12-18-2013, 11:19 AM

Took her to get remapped, i think we managed to squeeze about 20-30 more bhp out of the engine, didnt want to push it too much as it was more for the fuel economy as well. I treated the bay to a good clean after that, so clean i actually ate my dinner off it

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 02:28 PM

next was the interior, i was quite fond of the black but unfortunately i managed to spill coffee all over the passenger seat, unlike a normal person just cleaning it i decided to have a search on fleabay for a cream interior, for what ever reason some guy was selling a full set with door cards in good condition for £50, shwiiiiing.

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 02:32 PM

Here it is installed

wasnt too much of a pain to install the interior, probably took me a good 2 hours from start to finish, When doing this be sure to disconnect the battery as all sorts of warning lights for the airbag etc will appear, which will probably result in a trip to a garage to get the warnings reset. which i defiantly did not have to do...

Sparrow · 12-18-2013, 02:35 PM

well i wonder what could be going on here!

Mardio · 12-18-2013, 02:39 PM

Nice work.

Anon007 · 12-18-2013, 03:11 PM

nice work mods thus far

techietaichi · 12-18-2013, 10:50 PM

Good work mate. More, MORE!

DC_Oldboy · 12-19-2013, 03:09 AM

Nice! That E90 looks MUCH better with the upgraded new wheels haha.

Sparrow · 12-19-2013, 03:35 AM

ANGEL EYES!

Install went well, My neighbour came out half way through and asked why the front end of my car was off, she didnt quite fathom why anybody would take their car to bits for headlights, pfft.

Alen E90 · 12-19-2013, 03:36 AM

the E90 looked great with those mods but your current E93 looks awesome!!
