Updated Look

Vitalität · 08-04-2016, 02:54 PM

So thought I'd share the latest look of my E90 330i. So far, I have done the following:

- LCI conversion
- M Sport rear bumper (color a bit off but will be color matched soon. I know

)
- M3 Rep Front
- 19" VMR 710 Wheels, offsets are 20et & 22et
- Roof wrapped

To come:
- M3 paddle retrofit
- M3 style skirt
- M3 style fenders

Has anyone seen a 330i badge put on an LCI trunk before? Do you think I should leave it debadged since having 330i on it seem weird but then again, it looks dull or it's just me?

Also, any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for looking.

A 330 badge on an LCI would definitely make me look twice. I say go for it.

Interesting. Any negative impression you can think of as a result of the badge and the fact that my car has been converted to LCI?

Ruddigger · 08-05-2016, 01:19 PM

Not really. I'd think that you put some work into your car upgrading it to LCI, you can still tell it's an pre-LCI because of the side mirrors.

Cool! Thanks for your perspective. The mirrors will be changed for sure, but I dunno about the hood yet and it's on the last part of my list. By the way,. I checked your thread and your car looks smoking hot!

Yes, cool

TROSEKREW · 08-05-2016, 02:46 PM

i like the white, wish mine was white. Currently living in FL ans yeeeezus having jet black here is crazy lol yours looks good man. IMO id leave the badge off, always looks more clean. specially if you continue to mod and later down the road want to take it off then you gotta re-de-badge it leaving that nasty goo depending on how long you leave it on obviously.

Soles330i · 08-05-2016, 04:21 PM

looks clean af as is...i wouldnt do much more to it aesthetically.

my take, swap out the roundels and leave it debadged, but it is ur car.

Actually, I'd leave the mirrors. The pre-lci mirrors look better anyway. Thanks fir checking out my thread, too.
