^^Thanks guys!!

I mounted up the LM reps and they look really clean but I'm gonna go a different route (they are for sale in the classifieds).

I'm glad I was able to use them as a reference though for offsets. The rear fitment was spot on and the front was just about perfect too (able to tuck when aired down). The rear is fully aired down and the fronts are at about 20psi:

Ignore my dirty rear lol. It's been raining for the past week.

Looks great. Nice pics.

J.Khlok · 01-15-2013, 06:01 PM

SHEESH! Looks really good man, I like everything that you've done with the car. Every think about adding the Z4M Front Bumper with a lip maybe?

Abner · 02-08-2013, 12:56 AM

Looks awesome Bro.

What are your wheels & tire specs?

spr_bimmer · 02-08-2013, 07:36 AM

I've been debating on front lip/bumper options. Still on the fence, I don't wanna lose my foglights but I'm not 100% sold on the sport bumper.

Retail for my setup was around $3600.00 - $3800.00

Got around to ordering some new brakes. Went with ECS Tunings 3.0 (325mm) upgrade.

New pads, rotors, calipers, lines, etc.

Before and After:

StayFNCY · 02-12-2013, 12:39 PM

Lol damn definitely shocked me haha. But if your looking for a bumper combo you can have my aero bumper for cheap

the grill brackets just need to be replaced on the driver side, passenger side does have broken brackets but it holds the grille in place

M-Power M3 · 02-21-2013, 05:30 PM

Took some shots when I was leaving work the other night.

Loogey Clapp · 02-21-2013, 07:01 PM

This looks really sweet... I don't know why in my mind I think bagged cars don't handle. You say it handles like it's on coils. If that's the case, I say it's all good.

Your car looks 10 X's better than when you bought it, that's for sure!
