I'm not certain, my body shop did all of the work.

I bought the hood on ebay and have never heard that it may need hood pins until now, from doing a little research on google it seems to be recommended if you plan to track the car but not essential. I have had the hood on for over a year now without any problems.

TeinBMW · 11-19-2013, 06:15 PM

Oh wow. That's quite the change and it looks really good

Jayr2c00L · 11-21-2013, 11:40 PM

niceee!! get a front lip

kingofthedemo · 11-24-2013, 04:13 AM

I have been toying around with the idea, of switching to these roundels. Do you guys think these would work on my car, or should I just stick with the oem style?

J38 · 11-26-2013, 05:58 AM

Hey man, I came here after following your sig link from the LCI console thread.

I just want to drop a note that you have really transformed your car. Well done, man, well done.

Joe Stewart's body shop did a great job of installing it, but as you can see from the pics the fitment was flawless. Look at those lines and judge for yourself:

e90dass · 11-28-2013, 10:13 AM

hey good job man. What size spacers did you use for front and back? are you running wider wheels at rear?

No spacers, the wheels are 5'' wider in the back.

r.carson · 12-06-2013, 09:18 PM

It's a great start now get the rear and sides to match!

marc@x-ph.com · 12-06-2013, 10:02 PM

Yeah I'm pretty sure that you are just butthurt about this thread that you posted in lol: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=927447 And that's pretty funny to hear from someone with a huge M stripe on the front of their non M car lol!

I'm not trying to fool anyone that it's an M3 I didn't put any badges on it or the m3 fenders, like some clowns do. I just like the style of those parts.

I could say that your car shows 'wana be LCI owner' in a similar way .
