Monaco e93 Build

Long-time lurker, first-time poster...so here go my first post.
I bought a Monaco blue e93 about a year ago. I have been having so much fun with it, and loved modding it. So here goes some pics from when i first picked her up to now.

Day 1 Bring her home

Home...

First mod. I got a m3 rep bumper **********s.
Test fitting


Finaly painted and i did a fog delete


Ordered some m3 rep rims off of Ebay! They are 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9 rear.

plasi dipped rims and window trim.

The exhaust was too quit for me, so i got a muffler delete. By far the best mod!

After all that i needed to get more power so i bought a jb4 and dci from a member on here

And here it is today.

I also have a mtech rear coming, and i also ordered some led rings to do a led angle eye conversion!

Looks nice. You are off to a great start. Nice and simple and OEM looking. All I would suggest is to change the wheels. I'm not a fan of those wheels, especially plasti-dipped. You should also paint the lower mesh grill black and tint your windows.

Yeah those are all to come. Also i plan on changing to dpe gt6 when i get the money. Those rims are just for the mean time better than the stock 189s rims.

Yeah I had them silver and they looked small. Black gives it a illusion that its bigger.
