Body Kit

RayL · 07-16-2013, 06:36 AM

I have a lci 323i e90 (space gray) and would like to upgrade my body kit. I'm still confused as to whether I should go with the M3 replica for e90 or the Mtech/MSport . I'm new to modding and open for any suggestions...

As for the MSport I like sporty look from the sharp edges. Where as, I also like the very sporty look of the M3 style, but not sure if it would look good on my car.

which one do you prefer?

hard one... I like both but keeping it Msport on my 335i

Ben0426 · 07-16-2013, 06:55 AM

I went M-sport front and rear, with M3 side skirts. Loved them

It's personal preference mate, choose the one the best pleases YOU.

That's all that matters.

I'll be going with the m tech bumpers and side skirts. Looks OEM and should have perfect fitment

skidz · 07-16-2013, 07:09 PM

TBH there is very very little difference between the Msport and M body kits. I have heard peeps having trouble with the replica m kits

Champ it just depends on the look you want... the M3 is more aggressive.. both are great... check out Elmos 335 and Moes 335 you can see exactly how both look.

Both awesome looking 335s but i don't agree on doing the same to a 323i or my 325i looks too mean for something that has considerably less power haha!

Just my two cents anyway..

I hear you.... Elmos car is prime example... love it. i' going to do Mtec front to match my mtec back... don't think i will do the side skirts.

M3 front bumper with foglight delete looks awesome

Msport is nice and OEM looking

RayL · 07-18-2013, 07:06 AM

Would an M3 style bumper look good with an Msport Rear? or would it look weird?

Still looks much better then a m3 rep rear on a non m!

Imo the m3 front with m3 sides mtech rear with a duke dynamics diffuser is a killer package

sbce90 · 07-18-2013, 08:02 AM

I don't like aftermarket M3 fronts, especially on E90s. Obviously biased here, but for an E90 LCI go with the Msport kit..

..and a front lip or some splitters if you want as well

skidz · 07-18-2013, 07:29 PM

IMO the difference is not worth the hassle

RayL · 07-19-2013, 01:32 AM

Where in Sydney can i get the body kit painted and installed?

RayL · 07-21-2013, 06:10 AM

What type of front lips can I put on the MSport without any modifications?

sbce90 · 07-21-2013, 07:15 AM

You can get full front lips, or just carbon splitters for the sides. There are a few options out there.
