e90

jaspy412 · 12-17-2007, 05:38 PM

first of all hi all, I have been watching the forums for some time and have found some gr8 information.
At present I have a X3 3.0 sport and a e90 320d, the problem is hat when i purchased the e90 it was in 06 and the dealer basically bullshitted me into gettin a sale saying se was all that was available and not other spec (i wanted the m sport) also no bluetooth.
So the thing is I have a gr8 car, fantastic on fuel but dosent look good enough and has bad spec, going from a lexus is200 sport which I supercharged etc.
So I am looking to keep the e90 and modify it, namely to a m sport spec i.e. bodykit, alloys, interior, xenons and also chip it, so I was wondering if there was any where near burnley to chip and any recommendations for bodykits etc. suppliers?
thanks in advance and sorry for the tall order, but for one the standard alloys are totally p!ssing me off due to small size and distance from arch

For those kind of mods, it's probably going to work out cheaper, selling yours and buying another with the spec you want. If it were just wheels and a chip you were after, it'd be a different story.

Welcome to the site matey

ACS do many bodywork bits. Think CA Automotive do some styling packages. Have a search on those two companies.

Regarding engine tuning try DMS or CA Automotive again, they can re-map your 320d!

I agree with 1stnc.... to get this to MSspec would probably cost a LOT of money NONE of which you would see in the resale.

You'd (in my opinion) be better off kitting your baby out with some BETTER than Msport body bits and being able to sell these on seperately afterwards.

That's my opinion.

Alternatively as suggested why not look for a decent second hand MSPORT.

it might be worth having a bit of a go at the salesmanager and see if by reminding him of his LIES you can't strike a good exchange deal

You could do this, but I think the other advice is sound, you'd end up paying a lot and it would never come re-sale as it would not be a true M-sport.

If you are keen have a look here
