Will he ever mod his car......

Oli · 02-03-2008, 01:46 PM

Its definately a case of 'talk is cheap' where Carl and modding his BMW are concerned, especially coming from the 'modded ford scene', what do you think will be his first mod......

Oli · 02-03-2008, 01:50 PM

Oh and Carl dont take this personally, as Im sure you will admit, you have talked a lot about different mods for DXB!!!!

vivekk · 02-03-2008, 01:51 PM

Doesn't look like it needs editing at all, but I'm shifting it into off-topic, ok Oli.

Great 'modding' Viv

I think Carlos is at the research stage at the moment about what to do with his car. That is the good thing about this forum people have personal opinions and life experience of the mods and can help weed the wheat from the chaf.

I am sure whatever he chooses he will share the information on what / why / how and what he thinks of the items as we know he does not mince his words. This will help others like me decide if the items are good and worth investing in especially as he will give them a fair workout on the car.

I am the same when I buy things and a big part of the fun for me is the studying of products before buying to hypothetically prove to myself that I am buying the best for the value I place on the item. I have brought a new laptop recently, I wanted a Dell as I have had 2 before with no issues and I spent a disproportinate amount of hrs on the dell website reviewing spec and weekly whishing the price down another £50.

I think by the end of the summer his car will have a few performance related mods. A map, suspension, round wheels, lower front dam, non burnt xenon covers and new tyres would be my bet at this point. An M3 unlikely as a flat / house would probably be a better buy longer term.

I look forward to reading about it when he wants to share the info with us all.

We have to show we care, or don't, as the case may be.

No...I couldn't.

Carl, may I ask, is there any chance whatsoever, of you spraying the DXB pink and putting glitter on the wheels?
