Bought her at Fieldhouse Ford in Demotte, IN on March 21, 2014 and was brought home to Lafayette, IN 2 hours away!

First Things First! Get those ugly yellow halos GONE!

Then Comes the "Look at me I'm cool stage"

High School senior on a budget, plastidiping those stock wheels!

Next was the black out stage. The challenge? What cant I black out?

Then came the coding! Everyone knows the fact that E90's dont have "DRL's", but infact, those are Parking lamps, and E90's have the turn signals on when the parking lamps are on. So the solution, Code it!


Now. Time goes by, about 6 months. And its Spring 2015 and i get myself a few gifts! Brand new TSW Bathursts!

Euro Smoked Tails!

So this is as of about March of 2015. 1 year later! I will continue soon!

Hey Andy,

I noticed you blacked-out your kidney grill chrome and it looks amazing. Was that plasti-dip or something else?

Also, would you mind sharing where you got the blue angel eyes upgrade? I want to do these exact same thing with my new 328i and it looks amazing. Thanks for sharing all this info!

Yes, the kidney grilles were bought online, super easy to change out, takes like 10min. The blue halos were just cheapy bulbs bought on ebay. I do warn you though, for the time that i had them in i was written 2 tickets and warned multiple times. Just a friendly warning haha

And the story continues (i apologize for putting it at the bottom, i'd like to put the images in the places where they go but i'm a noob and have no idea how)

So everything for the most part is blacked out.

Leaving a car show on May 2015, M3 Rep Bumper with a lip from JGMods.
Also the H&R Sport Spring are now on!

Last day of high school with my buddy!

Hey Ive got a motorcycle! (My first one)!

Totally tired of cops and my blue halos! And white is just not good enough! My ever designed color changing leds for E90's without customization

New bike! CBR600rr!

Christmas time!!! Why not sport it!
(Also lip comes off in the winter)

Blue is just to boring, time to change up the bike!

Winter in Indiana (decided to risk it and leave the summer tires and lowering spring on)

Spring rolling around! Time to clean her up!

Now just some shots for fun!

Some future plans for the car:
KW Coilovers
Trunk spoiler
(Open to ideas)

I'll be honest, I really don't use them often. Just at night when a few buddies of mine hang out, i might flip them on for fun.

I bought mine from pstdirect. But it looks like they don't sell one at the moment. This is my 2nd front bumper from ebay. (1st bumper was taken out by a deer). Both of them fit perfect and look great!
