Not a fan of matte black, but great mods!

Jace_91 · 08-23-2011, 02:53 PM

Love the wheels and hood, agreed bumper would probably look better not matte. IMO

Hey Ant · 08-23-2011, 03:44 PM

I think he meant he didn't like the wheels being matte black, and the bumper is probably unpainted.

Thumperx · 08-23-2011, 04:53 PM

Very Cool Justin, post some pictures when you're done.

rbtamms · 08-23-2011, 06:32 PM

Wow, i'd like to see those on your car...

gizmo335i · 08-23-2011, 11:56 PM

Damn, don't hold back on $$$ right off the bat, lol..

ibeclueless · 08-24-2011, 05:36 AM

awesome

sickem · 08-24-2011, 10:34 AM

I guess I don't understand why people go through so much trouble to make a non-M3 look like an M3? I think the 335i is an awesome car, there's no need to make it something it's not. I can see doing M Sport upgrades or taking a design element here or there from the M3 (like a bumper, wheels, or those badass mirrors...I'll probably do the OEM M3 lip spoiler on mine at some point), but not all of them. I guess if I wanted an M3 I'd buy one or wait until I could afford to buy one.

I saw a guy driving home last night that had a debadged E46 coupe (maybe a 330) with an M3 license plate frame...I just shook my head. Don't get me wrong, I'm not comparing you to this, just saying.

Not trying to take the jelly out of your donut. It is your car and you should obviously do what you want with it. I'm just throwing in a couple Lincolns. Please post pics when it is all on the car.

bmodzelewski · 08-24-2011, 11:39 AM

lets see some after pics..

DOX · 08-24-2011, 02:45 PM

Big fan of matte black!

Would be better if you posted pics of them installed before asking for opinions though.

SV Concepts · 08-24-2011, 03:07 PM

Nice start!!! Definitely get some install pics up!!

WWONG · 08-24-2011, 03:17 PM

Looks hot but don't mix carbon fiber and matte black. Enthusiasts know what you're up to but the general public will think you've been in an accident and are too cheap to get half your body painted/clear coated.... especially from a distance and not close enough to see the CF grains

eDDuBB · 08-24-2011, 08:47 PM

Nice wheels. Hot, hot, hot!!

TwinTuning · 08-24-2011, 11:56 PM

Nice upgrade, who did you get the hood from?

ES_TRADER · 08-25-2011, 12:39 AM

why not just buy a M3? save the hassle

DesiRoc · 08-25-2011, 01:29 AM

I'm jealous lol. I don't think I'm going that far with my car, but definitely thinking of some CSL reps or M3 reps for wheels.

PICS!

JGMODS · 08-25-2011, 01:57 AM

Great start! can't wait to see the installed pics.

It doesn't make any sense to me.

DaveL · 08-25-2011, 07:16 PM

Shoulda just purchased a used M3 no?? Would have been easier and seems like that's what you preferred.

+1

or at least get OEM M3 parts and do the full conversion for about $7000 (forum member Tim did that - http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=575795).

I mean, what sets the M3 visually apart is the W I D E - S T AN C E
