Absolute wicked car.
Everything about it is perfect. The wheels look damn tough, and its stance with that M3 kit look awesome.
Very well done.

I was told wrapping may not last as long reason I wanted them painted but I bought $40 gloss black wraps from ebay so i will see how they turn out first.

Those DP's look well made for the price, and i kinda wish i had went with those as im sure they are just as good as the ar's!

Did you find the car a whole lot more responsive afterwards? (I had mine installed with my fmic and cp so unsure if that had a lot to do with it also)

I'll be getting a JB4/Cobb in a few months time so right now it's just the DPs. On sports mode it was abit more reponsive but on normal D it felt the same.

Just read through this thread... but actually saw your car a couple of weeks ago. Didn't see the front, only the back - looked good already. I shoulda checked out the front - m3 front looks great in the pics, and I'm sure even more kickass in real life! Great work! Yeah, +1 to Steve and Jin - awesome team.

The shop didn't encounter any problems installing them on my e92. Jin/Steven showed me a 335 on the hoist with it installed even before I had decided on getting downpipes so fitment for us RHD is good.
I think I was the 6th person to have them installed by the shop.
The only problem was that it caused the engine light to come on but that was fixed through the JB4.

Here are the pictures of the VRSF downpipe installation.
Not much difference between these and the ARs.

Good value for money considering you can buy a new one 1/3 of the price of the AR Design.
