My 2011 335IX BMW Individual Vermillion Red

MTK24 · 07-26-2018, 01:42 AM

The car was all stock when I purchased it. I detailed the car myself and made some paint correction to bring out it's true color.

The car looks like a very dark red in the shade but once the sun shines on it, it becomes a bold deep red color.

The car is loaded with everything except M-sport package/navigation. But that doesn't stop me from doing the m sport package myself

Mods:

Exterior:

front bumper splitters
real carbon fiber lip
M3 side skirts
OEM M-Tech carbon fiber spoiler
15% all around window tint

Interior:
3k carbon fiber trim
red LED interior

Future mods:
K1 suspension
M3 bushings
New rims/tires

I made a few cosmetic upgrades since purchasing and will continue to do more. Next is wider tires and rims and different suspension.

If anyone has any suggestions or comments feel free to post

Absolutely love the red!! Personally I wouldn’t add the front lips since I think the front end looks great with the splitters already. The M3 skirts look amazing though! Post more pics please!

Love it, very unique. Just needs wheels.

That colour! Love it. A few subtle changes and that will be stunning

Sweet Jesus that's gorgeous

I've never liked red cars, but this has me reconsidering everything about my life haha. A new set of wheels and this will be insane, nice job!

I got them off eBay lol. Just set the voltage setting to max for the angel eyes and get a high watt angel eye.

I'm going to retrofit them soon though

Excuse me for being insistent, but if your LEDs are IRL as your photo suggests, I think you found the perfect LEDs for the E90 LCI.
A ref or a picture of the LEDs would be really appreciated

Thanks

Hi it's a 240W H8. I will try to find a link for you.

It depends on the angle. Looking straight up both rings look even but from the side the inner one is much more bright

Why does your title say Bmw individual vermillion red, vermillion red was a standard color in 2011 $550 extra as it is metallic, it wasn’t an individual color on the E90 but it is a beautiful color and a bit rare!

Good to know!

When clean, it's one of the nicest colors in that lineup. I had a Mustang that was a very similar color...and when I had it cleaned up it was stunning. However, once it got just a little dirty, it would get lost in the crowd. Funny how that works.

You sir, however, have that car looking mighty pristine.
