Sweet pics! I noticed you guys are in Raleigh NC. My car is currently hibernating up there until I get back in a couple of months. I have all sorts of new suspension parts lying around (M3 bits) that I plan on having installed. I also have new rotors & SS brake lines etc. to be installed. Who does your work? I'll be looking for a BMW specialist to do the work without the dealership costs!

Thanks! I've done all my own work except clutch install. Saves even more money for more mods

If you ever need install help let me know.

Thanks, I really liked that location. Props to Chris(the photographer) for doing really good photoshop work on this location. He really made a great shot into an amazing one.

Damn, looks like next time you guys do this I need to get in on it. I don't have a good camera, or a camera except my GS3. Both cars look great. Paint that window trim!

Not to double post, but Bimmer Performance Center in Raleigh is hands down the best place to get work done on your BMW. Dan used to be the head mechanic at Leith. They are the only people who touch my car and they have all the diagnostic and coding tools that the dealer has. I cannot stress enough the quality of their work and the honesty that they bring to the table. I trust whatever Dan or Mike says and they have yet to steer me wrong, or I have yet to be even slightly disappointed. They also have cars and coffee every third Saturday of the month I believe. They are also 30% cheaper than the dealership, and they do better work.

GRLPWR · 03-11-2013, 12:56 PM

Looks great! BTW, where is that brick wall? Durham has some awesome places for pics but I don't recall seeing that one (unless it's hiding in a crack downtown somewhere).

And, to piggy-back on the comment regarding BPC (Bimmer Performance Center), yes, that's a great place to take your car. The guys are awesome, down to earth, and even take aftermarket warranties. Mine's been there several times (there now) and I'll continue to take it there after my warranty runs out (scared....will happen by the end of the month).

Side note: it's not a "Cars and Coffee" they hold every 3rd Saturday...it's actually the local BMWCCA chapter that meet there but ALL are welcome (member or not).

Blindside_137 · 03-11-2013, 03:01 PM

Btw is there a custom diffuser setup on the white e92? I swear I've seen it downtown before. Not sure if it had quads but it had a setup I had not seen before.

Ya it's a diffuser I have never seen a before. He works downtown so it was definitel his car . I'll take a pic one day of it and see if anyone can identify it.

Blindside_137 · 03-11-2013, 04:28 PM

Nice! Both are super clean cars

Ivan@PYSpeed.com · 03-11-2013, 05:51 PM

nice photos

remmib · 03-11-2013, 07:23 PM

Very nice cars, and cool pics.

Game · 03-11-2013, 07:56 PM

Awesome shots.

Both good looking cars too.

badass rides and shots!

SacksLax · 03-12-2013, 11:21 AM

Marcus, I'm pretty sure I live right near you. Next time you go out for a shoot let me know. I've been meaning to get some legit pictures of my car since I finally got it looking the way I want. I guess one of these days I could stop by a Sonic meet.

FUTURE · 03-12-2013, 12:38 PM

Nice!
