that's cool. You taking into consideration what colors to change the accents to on your car? or keep it green?

ironic · 11-07-2008, 01:29 AM

some interior shots and a few photos of some more recent mods. more info can be found here on the retrofit: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...=181405&page=8

PKumarM3 · 11-07-2008, 07:38 AM

those badges are sweet man!

your car is phenomenal.

i just found it outrageous that someone as meticulous and innovative as yourself would resort to using M3 badges. You don't seem like the kind.

The car is gorgeous!

Uhm....it's the DCT Shift Knob from an M3....It's not actual M3 badging but M Sport...I think it's great taste!

That's clever!

Actually his is the M5/M6 SMG knob. the M3 DCT knob does not have the 'up' / 'down' arrows. minor difference but there's one.

Yup, more info on the shift knob retrofit can be found here: http://www.aw-industries.com/Shift-Knob/

I absolutely love the car. And unlike a few people, I think the green makes it. One question though, not sure if it was answered earlier and its not trying to be obnoxious, but doesnt your costs for all this come close if not more than an M3? did you want the turbo?

watrob · 11-11-2008, 06:48 AM

Nicely done man, great looking car, great pics!

Zk1 · 11-16-2008, 07:31 PM

The total cost of building the car was close to an m3, but that's including aftermarket wheels, bodywork, suspension, and tune. So yes, I could have bought an m3 but it would be stock, also the I6 really deserves some bigger rubber.

i think i died and was brought back to life again

sick sick sick

graider · 11-20-2008, 12:27 PM

wow, that is insane how it looks exactly like an m3, lol.

But I would rather buy the real m3. The v8 NA fit the m3 spirit more IMO.

JIM E92 · 11-20-2008, 12:32 PM

Nice photography.

Three35i · 12-25-2008, 01:14 AM

I just want to say that, I had come across this car listed on Ebay, and my jaw dropped. Absolutely the most stunning 335i I've ever seen. I would love to do something similar to this but to an Alpine White. I have owned black cars all my life, and it's really hard to maintain it, but when it's clean it's beautiful, but 5 minutes later, it's dusty again. But I just want to say that this is my inspiration for my future 335i. Amazing work man!

reggiecmah · 12-25-2008, 03:57 AM

1. How long does it usually take if I were to order the retro fitted knobs from the website given?

2. What D1S bulbs do you have installed and what temperature are they?

thanks!

Spoolin335 · 12-25-2008, 04:00 PM

if you have higher res photos pm me them please. i want some of these for my desktop.

drool...

Ok Folk's and "ironic"

i have a quiestion , but before i ask i would just like to say
i think the car look's great im not hating at ALL!
i just want to know though what is the point of doing this
meaning whats the point of taking a 335i and doing all this work to make it only LOOK like a m3 since it's not one no matter what the fuck you do to it
why didnt you just buy a M3 because im sure with all the money it took to do this you could of easily bought a m3 correct?

again this is just a question im not hating at all i just want to know what the fuck the point of doing this is ?

Did you not get a present for Xmas ? huh?

I would mod out a 335i simply because the car has so much potential and Ironic has proven that 335i can look sexy. M3 has like a 25K premium and tax that I just dont think its worth it

The pics are AMAZING! But I have no love for going green like that
