Custom E90 Wide Body Build

zero2sixtyZ · 05-26-2015, 01:29 PM

That is how a widebody should be done. Kudos to you.

clgrubb144 · 05-27-2015, 04:40 PM

A proper shot of the rear to show the "widebody"... Excuse the filter but without it the picture was too dark to show the rear tires. And I purposely left the the left side of the bumper cover dull to show the width. I will post pictures of the front end soon but right now it's all tore apart again for some much needed cooling/ducting upgrades.

One more of the side... No filter but iPhone quality. Going to have professional pictures done sometime in the future.

What material did you use for the fog grills and center grill? How did you attach those?

I just bought mesh locally and made a templet and hammered the mesh to the correct shape. Then used an apoxy to fit it to the bumper.

Great job man.

Hokie_BMW · 06-09-2015, 10:57 PM

Having seen the various steps of this project from beginning to end its the cleanest wide body I've seen. The front end is perfect!

1st · 06-09-2015, 11:23 PM

Just reiterating what everyone else has said. Your attention to detail and the care you put into this makes this the best widebody project I have seen on *any* car. The execution is flawless.

AzureHaze · 06-10-2015, 09:58 AM

Nowhere remotely close to rice with this project.

So subtle yet sexy. I approve.

3s4u2 · 06-10-2015, 11:20 AM

Very Nice

Seattlesquash · 06-10-2015, 10:02 PM

Beautiful!!!

buzzard · 06-12-2015, 07:05 PM

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oooohhhhh. I just made a mess.

Ilove2dubb · 06-12-2015, 11:38 PM

That looks absolutely amazing! Good job!

nickrose23 · 06-13-2015, 09:37 AM

So sick

Seattlesquash · 07-18-2015, 06:09 PM

I think it's time for you to impress us with something again, live to follow your build. Worst case, if it is perfect in your mind, buy something new and blow our minds again. So impressive!

You know you want to!
