Nice looking ride

If my car was black, I'd have snagged the M3 rep hood by now. Unfortunately I have to factor in the cost of paint on top of the purchase and the shipping costs, which have caused me to put it on the back burner for now.

Go for it! I have pretty much settled on the one MB sells, which is made by Carbon8

I want to lower her but I cant due to my driveway. I have to come in at an angle at stock height. And I like her being in the garage.

Unfortunately that's what you have to sacrifice when you lower the car. Going in driveways on super angles cause I am almost touching the ground but I get it done . If you wanted to you would have, oh well

Nice car, and get that hood!

I also think it would look even better if you parked on the floor in the first two pictures and not on the wall

I'd add in an Msport or BMW Performance front bumper along with a drop too.

+1 ...not a fan of exposed carbon fiber on large panels either, even on exotics.

Sure, it reduces weight on the E90, but as a percentage of the car's gross weight - amounts to nothing really.

Performance mods ftw!

As far as engine mods I'm waiting on VRSF charge pipe and exhaust. Im not going to run meth. While I wait I'll get the hood and the springs.

honestly:
- i think those depo headlights look cheaper than the oem halogen flashlights
- i think those led taillights look just as cheap too
- i personally think black wheels are dumb, but there seems to be a majority of ppl that like it
- i think unpainted CF hoods look tacky on euros unless it's a dedicated race car (that doesn't include cars that go to the "track" once a year)
