Folks, it has been one tough journey after losing my '06 e90 and waiting patiently to become an owner of my second Bimmer.

My plans are to share my new vehicle and along the way present how it has changed because my previous cars have never been modified.

Modifications:

[X] = Completed
[o] = To be determined

[X] Gloss Black Grill
[X] Debadge
[X] Windshield Reveal Molding
[o] VW K2
[X] BBS LM Replicas
[o] Soft tint Rear reverse lights
[X] Medium tint all around except for windshield
[X] Aftermarket Exhaust set up
[X] M-sport front bumper / Euro style
[X] Xenon transition from Halogens with custom LED work

Nice! Way to go

[xquisit]

The car is already in my possession and I've been driving it for a week.

Take some time to notice the "X" and "O" near my modifications.

X = Already done

O = Will be done

Looking forward to updating this thread.

Looking forward to more pics

Update:

I have purchased window reveal molding and I will end up taking pictures of my car when the part arrives.




I have made an appointment with LA MUFFLER in Reseda to get a solid evaluation on the custom exhaust work that will be done.




Furthermore, I am planning on getting my vehicle tinted next week.

Okay.. Unless I'm losing my mind I know I posted in this thread as well as others.. Is this a repost?

[troy2003]

No, somebody cleaned out all of the truthful posts. I guess we weren't playing nice in e90posts day care.

[MORTON]

Lol I knew I wasn't losing my mind..

[MORTON]

That's some bull man.. You can't expect people to not post when you do a thread on your build bro.. Especially when you are doing it the way you are.. Everything is reserved this reserved that you've got like 2 things out of 100 done bro.. I'm all for ya modding and getting great results but damn bro no need to post this just yet this early in the game especially if you don't want anyone else posting in your thread on a public forum..

[amanuuh]

this thread is on some weird ish

[MORTON]

Yeah.. Tell me about it.. The dude had someone remove all of our original posts..

[xquisit]

Negativity is what I do not like. One cat said I do not even have the car and it is a hypothetical post (Troy that was yourself, welcome back) and another was clowning on myself not affording lights (lol wdeerfield, I saw you begging for votes to win an apple product, so instead of barking back I asked a mod to clear the posts that were from all the softies with false accusations).

Stay tuned for mods.

[e90Cam]

damn, haven't been on e90post for a couple of days and I missed so much drama

Congrats on the the e90 op, looking forward for more pictures

Here's another update.

I am not going the cheap route with my lights.

I have hooked up with 888Concepts to do a Halogen to Xenon+Halo conversion.

Stay tuned, and remember I don't mind you folks posting in my thread (just don't throw any bullshit my way, this car is already purchased and the mods listed will be done - thanks)

EDIT:
Another update!
I just messaged another e90 forum member to buy his EIBACH Pro Kit Springs on Friday.

[xquisit]

Changes to my build already:

Decide to pass up on the Eibach Pro Kit and will wait out and research which suspension really suites my daily drive.

I have not been able to locate a shop to relocate my evaporator canister and help me out with a Y-setup.

Now, I will be changing out my lights before my exhaust.

I see you took my advice and went to LA Muffler. Good prices, let them know I sent you haha

Yeah, I sure did!

Mike and Junior were mad cool.


I am doing some changes again:

I broke tabs to my grill, so instead of replacing one of them, I will buy plumbers putty roll it into a ball and jam it in between the grill and body

I am going with Bilstein PSS9 coilovers, (a pre lci e90 335i member is selling it and I have to make sure they are a proper fit for my vehicle).

I am going with a medium tint all around as well.

I will take pictures after their job is done and refer their tint shop as well

EDIT: Here are some pictures:



It is across the street from Marshall's clothing store.



Come through the driveway on Verdugo Blvd.



And you have arrived!



Make your selection ( I picked medium, I believe it's the middle one )

[xquisit]

My window reveal molding to be delivered soon.

I have broken a tab on my grill, and did a neat mod to keep my grill in tact. (will show pictures later)

I am awaiting a trade for adaptive bi-xenons from a member, so if that goes through I am going to get custom work done by 888concept ASAP. If not, I will just give him my halogen set.






Side note: I am starting to wonder if I should get a piano black job done on my trim. Or if I should consider buying a used set from a member and get custom work done on it?
