Vorsteiner E90 Montego Blue Sedan

roller84 · 12-25-2007, 03:20 PM

Well I got my car back from my shop a few days ago from my shop after a bunch of mods. I never thought I would say this but I am not sure if I want to paint the hood as I planned. BTW, that's why the emblem is missing and the part of the CF kidney grill that goes on the hood. Do u guys think I should paint the hood, leaving the vents exposed as carbon fiber?

Mods this round:
Full Mtech Kit
Vorsteiner Front Lip(Molded)
Vorsteiner Double Sided Carbon Fiber Hood
Spearco Intercooler
RD Sport Quad Exhaust(Downpipe Back)
Euro Xenons
IND Carbon Fiber Grilles
M-Force Design Carbon Fiber Emblems

I took a whole bunch of pics. Sorry for the bad quality, it was very sunny outside and I suck at taking pics.

Wow. That looks awesome. Great Job. Myself I would paint it, but not sure how it looks in real life. Your choice.

e92man · 12-25-2007, 03:30 PM

!!!!!!!!!! COTM anyone?

daheechang · 12-25-2007, 03:39 PM

you have the perfect e90. congrats. haha wow that thing is amazing. loooove the color and contrast of the cf. great job!

JacobT · 12-25-2007, 03:50 PM

Very nice. I'm working on my car to make it like yours now. Great job, like it a lot. Any interior pics?

RaptorKTM · 12-25-2007, 03:50 PM

Looks good, i think the hood needs to be painted at least some of it, also the wheels are beautiful and the exhaust are very nice set, nice size quads. Only criticism is the hood fitment seems a bit off but that could just be me.

billspreston · 12-25-2007, 03:54 PM

Looks outstanding! I'm on the fence as far as the hood goes. I think painting the hood and leaving the vents cf would make for a great look combined with the cf lip and kidneys. A cf diffuser for the m-tech rear would make it complete!

Great job

evoi19 · 12-25-2007, 04:22 PM

very nicely done! I love all the mods and how it flows together.

Great job!!

nusevad · 12-25-2007, 04:42 PM

I think it the way it is, it matches the vort lip. and CF kidney grilles.

Great job

yeah paint the hood leave the vents cf, and get a cf diffuser. the cutouts you have right now look kinda wack.

id also love to see some hardcore balling shoes on the car. maybe some 20inch hres or dpes.

Nice Xmas Mod.!

remmib · 12-25-2007, 05:10 PM

Stunning looking car

I'd paint the hood leaving the cf vents exposed.

And like cantc0pe said, so 19s or 20s with a big fat lip would really set it off.

How is everyday drive with that low frontlip??

GuyOh · 12-25-2007, 05:11 PM

SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think black out the window trim would complete it

Minipuck V 2.0 · 12-25-2007, 05:51 PM

nice i wondered how a molded front vorsteiner lip would look like

Div4our · 12-25-2007, 06:20 PM

COTM material forsure!!!!

Tropicool · 12-25-2007, 06:26 PM

change the windowtrim to black too, you have nothing on the car that is chrome anymore

Great job

i agree 100% i think painting the hood and leaving the vents CF would look amazing.

Overall your car looks amazing. i cant wait to see it at one of the meets

imaznumkay · 12-25-2007, 06:58 PM

Interior is nothing special at the moment, it is black with aluminum trim. All I have is the OEM short shift now. Have a different idrive know that I have to install. Mtech steering wheel, knob and e-brake are in the works. Also bought in on Bav Dom's raw carbon leather interior trim. Hopefully everything pans out with that.

Yeah, the hood still needs to be tweaked a little. Are you referring to the gap above the bumper and headlights.

Great job

I think I am going to leave the hood the way it is now and try it out for a bit. I can always change it at any time. If I paint it I can never go back. The pics don't do it justice. I used to see pics of cars with unpainted CF hoods and didn't like it much. Now seeing it in person is a different story.

Yeah the cutouts did not come out great. Looking at the 3D Design CF diffuser but can't bring myself to spend $1200 on it, at least not yet.

I actually had a set of iforged previously. Polished lip with antracite center which would of matched the CF well as I had planned. However, I had issues with the wheels and had to return them and lost some money in the process. I like the look of concave wheels though. Who knows, I might switch back to deep dish wheels in the future.

Driving with the lip that low kinda sucks at the moment. I already raised the suspension to accomodate but still need to bring it up a bit more as I have A LOT of trouble getting into my driveway at the moment.

Already on my to do list. A bunch of locals got the vinyl put on however some have complaints about the install. I want to make sure I can get it done right before I cross it off my list.
