Talking The Modification Mission Continues! - MsportFury's Build Thread

First of all, for those that haven't seen my car dotted around the forum, I purchased a 2011 LCI E92 Msport 325d in Mineral White - in July 2015:

After much research and lots of time spent on trying to find and create the perfect look for my E92 - with the majority of inspiration coming from this forum, I am underway with my build. I will update the parts list and add pictures with any further mods i do, but for now, the below is what has already been done.

A Quick spec list before Modification is as follows:
Mineral White BMW E92 325d M Sport Coupe
2011 LCI Facelift Model
32,000 miles
Automatic Transmission
Cruise Control
BMW Climate Control
OEM Built in Sat-Nav Head Unit System
Black Leather Interior with OEM Amber Mood Lighting
Electric Heated Memory seats
No accidents/New Condition
M Sport Paddle Shifters
Gear Shifter in D/S Mode
White LED Xenon Angel Eye Headlights

Mods Parts list - in order of purchase:
  • M3 Competition Spoiler - MStyle/Autoenhance
  • MTX Audio Sub & Amp in Boot/Trunk - Pulse Audio
  • 2x2 CF Arkym Rep Front Lip - SSDD
  • 2x2 CF Rear Performance Diffuser - SSDD
  • D2 Power- CF Vented hood - Duke Dynamics
  • 2X2 CF LCI Performance Kidney Grilles - SSDD
  • M3 Replica Sideskirts in AB Plastic - Mstyle/Autoenhance
  • M3 Replica Fenders/Front Wings in AB Plastic - Mstyle/Autoenhance
  • Gloss Black Side-Gills for M3 Fenders/Front Wings - Mstyle/Autoenhance
  • Debadge (Removal of '325d')- Mstyle/Autoenhance
  • Complete Active-Sound Exhaust System - Cete Automotive

Smaller Cosmetic Mods:
  • Custom Red ///M Vinyls on Front lip and Rear Diffuser - Ebay seller
  • ///M Dustcaps - Ebay seller
  • Interior Lighting Replacement - Super Bright White - SSDD
  • Door to Floor Projectors (///M Logos and BMW Logos) - Ebay Seller
  • ///M Sport Floor mats - Ebay Seller

Here are some pictures showing the car as it stood at the end of February 2016, I will be updating pictures throughout the thread when I make more changes.

:

I've got to give a MASSIVE shout-out to Mstyle/Autoenhance in Romford, this project wouldn't have been possible without the guys there! They carried out all of the work on my BMW. They are all very helpful, a good laugh, and have a highly skilled and experienced Bodyshop. I highly recommend them for any type of aftermarket bodywork, paintwork, and also all sorts of Exhaust modification. They know their stuff when it comes to BMW.

Thanks to Duke Tong from Duke Dynamics for making sure my hood was made to a high quality from scratch and delivered to me in the UK within the 3 month time-frame I expected. I was regularly updated on the progress with pictures etc. He always answered my calls when i had questions so we had good communication, he's a friendly guy, but also a very very busy man, so don't expect your products to be made and delivered in an unrealistic time-frame.

Shout-out to Teddy at SSDD Motorsport, very responsive, helpful, swift delivery, decent product quality, reasonable prices and a great service overall!

A big thanks to Ferdi Cete at Cete Automotive who's communication, service, responsiveness, and product quality is impeccable - One of the best mods i have and completely adjustable which I love!

Finally, Thanks to my Mrs for still putting up with all of the endless car talk, and the countless days on end without our own transport - Because the car is always in and out of the Bodyshop!

Haha, thanks, I thought you'd change your mind again

I kept the OEM ones, just gotta be careful when you open the hood, keep a hand on top of the hood so it doesn't fly up!

Stay on Dukes back and contact him by phone frequently asking for updates, got a feeling you'll be waiting at least another two months I'm afraid..

All I know is that I've met these guys in person. Really nice people and didn't get the vibe that they were scamming. They are just really backed up.

Looks great but I think a small drop and some spacers would really complete the look. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks! I thought about it but the drop just isn't practical for me, and I haven't done any research on spacers, but I do agree it probably would look a bit more flush and sit prettier.
