(E90) Official Sparkling Graphite E90 Thread

Chandhole · 01-19-2014, 01:09 AM

New here.
Chin needs some TLC. Like that when I got it sadly.
18" Replica 2012 M5 rims with Firestone Firehawk Indy Wide Oval rubber which has been a great tire.

Plans are to add a new chin, wheel spacers (15mm rear, 12mm front), black out grille, paint calipers (thinking blue, gold, or black[leaning towards black]) and add cross drilled rotors to start. May also do something about the orange corners - on the fence about them. Maybe some carbon inside.

Looking for a good online shop to buy stuff from. Any recommendations for shops or mods?

Considering a Carbon Fiber Hood on my E90 Sparkling Graphite ... Good look? My commute is going to continue to chew up my car and I want to keep my pitted bumper and go Carbon Fiber rather than have my hood replaced. (recently took a huge rock into the front of the hood)

Went for a nice drive today

A much better look without the chrome window trims, IMO. Plasti-dip is magic in a can. More here: e90 Post Album

Regarding the front grills.. Which ones suit SGM more?

Gloss or Matt?

Gloss.

I was thinking about doing gloss grills, i love my matte ones though.

Finally got around to detailing her for spring and went for a drive with some friends. Getting blacklines soon too.
