E90 330xi | OEM BBK | Zauber | Hamann

MMOTION · 06-26-2011, 06:11 PM

Being a big parts hoarder and a lazy a$$, i finally decided to drop off my car with Darren + Phil @ Alphawerx to install all the parts sitting in storage for the past year. I've known these guys for a long time, since the OG days back in HS. Knowing Darren worked at BMW as a mechanic for 6 yrs, and Phil being a perfectionist when it came to body work/paint, he wouldn't let me install my Hamann cf lip w/o repainting the front bumper. In the end, it was really a no-brainer for me. And the shop being only 10 mins away, it was really convenient to drop by and check up on the progress.

And what was all this talk about not being able to install OEM BBK on our XI cars? Well, i'll let the pics speak for themselves. Enjoy!

1013mm · 06-26-2011, 06:35 PM

oh no wheels.

J-Spec Dan · 06-26-2011, 06:44 PM

tastefully done. why didn't you install everything sooner??

DC_Oldboy · 06-26-2011, 06:53 PM

Nice car man! But can you do a close up picture of the passenger? Because I can't see from that far. =P

OwnAge · 06-26-2011, 06:56 PM

hoT!

TheRox · 06-26-2011, 07:11 PM

where are the last few shots taken?

Thussy · 06-26-2011, 07:12 PM

Well done! It must be a Canadian thing to hoard and collect parts over the winter and then dump everything on at once!

Dr. G · 06-26-2011, 07:44 PM

Car looks nice!

We can start a Parts Hoarding crew

yamazaho · 06-26-2011, 09:07 PM

Very nice ride, can use another set of rims though IMO.

AWN52E92 · 06-26-2011, 09:19 PM

Nice work !

MRQturbo · 06-26-2011, 09:41 PM

sweet setup gabe...all you need now are LCI front lights..get rid of that ugly orange reflector crap.....

farbmw · 06-26-2011, 10:16 PM

SWEET looking BMW, the fever is catching on!!

DESI4life10 · 06-26-2011, 10:51 PM

Nicely done Gabe.

How did you get the strust bar to fit the xi? Apparently on tischer's site, it says they are not compatible with xi (would love to get one installed for me to)

_shim · 06-26-2011, 11:05 PM

Damn, looks good! Personally, I like the wheels

Hedges · 06-26-2011, 11:40 PM

siiick! Now we got to go get some pics done, pick a night!

Not sure if its a Canadian thing, but its definitely a GTA thang. Just look at all the local hoarders in TO. lol

Thanks Raj! Oem perf. strut bar fits our xi cars. Just look at the "sticky" in the XI Subforum. I guarantee it will fit.
