Sweet man, stock height, right?

mikeokimster · 04-29-2010, 05:16 PM

We need a matte black photoshoot hehe. Looks hot! What's next btw?

RON1X · 04-29-2010, 06:03 PM

damn those look good!

I'm on factory sport suspension. I cannot drop the car any lower on the roads that I drive on daily, it's not possible. Yesterday I scrapped the f#$k out of my front lip going .0001 mph....

Next I'm going to do the 330i intake manifold swap and get a custom tune from Winter Tuning in Germany, promised 289 HP, but we shall see....

^ I just got to find the time to do it... I'm busy as hell right now and the whole summer, plus I'm waiting on a member who is getting this same tune done, to see if it lives up to all the hype.

Also once I get off my ass I'll tint the windows, not sure on what % 20? 15% is a little too dark, and 35% is too light. So I was thinking 20 or 25%...

Finally I ordered the LED blacklines! I tinted my tails, so that they didn't clash as much with the wheels and tint. Those stock red tails are retarded on E90s IMO.

Alexander · 04-29-2010, 08:18 PM

Does anyone know/ fell comfortable with removing the yellow side marker in the Xenon housing, I hate that!

BTW I didn't have TPMS sensors on the wheels. My system uses the ABS sensors. WTF? Everyone told be that I had TPMS!!!

I hear you man, I don't like slammed cars (show like) but I don't think I could drop mine an inch or so even if I wanted to... I scraped my stock M-Sport lip a couple of times entering certain driveways... no matter how angled I approach it, it's horrible.

I never understood, does the Sport Package/M-Sport Package have a different suspension? Different height than cars not equipped with it?

Good luck with that tune man, let us know how she runs if you get it.

As far as I know the M sport and sport have the same ride height.

Yes, but what about compared to non Sport/M-Sport models?

Yes much lower.

JoosyJoos · 05-01-2010, 12:26 PM

Looks fresh!

And ya I scrape all the time too Walter. My exhaust has scrapped over a few speed bumps and the front lip has seen better days as far as the underside goes.

Eyeman · 05-01-2010, 07:28 PM

I'm lowered 20mm and I have to angle to go into my drive everyday. When my front lip finally arrives I'll really have to be careful. It's a pain but the looks are worth it to me, not for most though.

Love the wheels Aonarch. Have you considered the guys at Topspeed for your tune. They do custom tunes on BMW's. Also the shop in Norcross that I use does Singh tunes, I assume they have an N52 tune. Also I know a great tint guy if needed. He does the tints for United Gwinnett.

Top Speed is doing my tune once I do the 330i intake manifold swap. Thanks!

Ehh... I've heard to many bad things about them, plus overnighting my ECU to Europe... Our N52 isn't DI, and I really don't trust them with this fact. Way too many variables that could go wrong. Having a great local shop do the tune works for me...
