Forgetting to get colour matched reflectors.. priceless lol

Naww but freal bro, your car looks HOTT!

ArmyBimmerDude · 12-07-2007, 08:19 PM

Jesus man, I had my doubts about how well that color could be modded, but it looks fuckin amazing!

By the way, the price for the reps. Thats wheel and tire right? No way do they cost $1800

uhaulball · 12-07-2007, 08:23 PM

where did u get the coilovers from, and where did u install. im gonna be doing this soon. and i think u paid way too much for the reps with tires. whered u get the reps from - u can get them in 19" staggered from modbargains for 898 shipped.

both (i am a modbargains fan...lol) a local shop installed my c/o. ride is firmer but manageable. not harsh at all.

btw i am not in nyc but upstate ny, so probably too far for you to come to my shop

Suareezay · 12-07-2007, 08:52 PM

sick color.

scooby9 · 12-07-2007, 09:02 PM

Looks great! I need to lower my 335xi but I don't want to sacrifice ride quality due to coilovers...

Leesi · 12-07-2007, 09:16 PM

Somehow... your Barbera Red is gorgeous dude

Leesi · 12-07-2007, 09:17 PM

Mind to show what interior combo you got?

uhaulball · 12-07-2007, 09:35 PM

was the ride better when you had stock wheels with RFT and oem suspension. or M6 reps with the coilovers.

i cant decide between these and the v3 coils. these are like ~1360 and the v3 ~1700.

devo · 12-07-2007, 09:46 PM

Your car looks beautiful.

I remember that you recently posted pics of your car in a snow storm. You had the reps on, so I'm assuming that you are running summer tires? They can't be too good in the snow, are they?

Any regrets with the ride quality of the coil-overs?

Queenskid24 · 12-07-2007, 10:27 PM

sexy drop!!!

cn555ic · 12-07-2007, 10:36 PM
