1 year and 4 months later.....(for fans of lowered)

[simplyclean325i]

I bought this car last year in April and i have been slowly getting it to where i want it. I still have more plans, but i figured that my car was finally worthy of some proper photos.

This is how it looked when i bought the car



What has been done to it so far: (most of it done by my mechanic)
-replaced the headlights with euro smileys and BMW hood emblem
-IS lip
-removed the roof rack
-removed the tint
-changed the tires from 205/40 to 215/40
-added 3mm spacers up front for clearance
-new rear BC spring 8kg/120mm
-Z3 shifter rod
-re rolled the rear fenders
-recharged the A/C
-new spark plugs, plug wire set, distributor cap, distributor rotor
-center support bearing
-brake master cylinder
-fixed all leaks
-new inner tie rods
-rear euro plate filler
-long story short, was rear ended (nothing bad, just cracked re spray) insurance covered it and they found that the previous owner was hit as well and he used bonded under the license plate frame so they cut out that whole section from behind the lights and license plate and put a new piece in and painted it

How the car looks now







Plans for the next few months:
-5mm spacer for the rear
-Nardi 330mm wooden steering wheel
-Euro trim
-Maintenance to make sure it will keep running

Future Plans:
-Real BBS rs's and rear wider
-Fix all little things (dents,paint)

For those who may ask:
Suspension-
BC Racing Coilovers BR edition and rear is a shorter spring
Wheels-
ESM 16x9 ET10
Tires-
Hankook Ventures 215/40

saw your car in person and its literally rediculous. It is SUPER CLEAN. REallY good choice in mods by the PO. I would throw some trim paint on that rear bumper trim. Will be perfect!

i oddly like the red painted bumper strip on the rear bumper, i think matching the front would do this car some good, leave the door moldings for contrast though.

car looks fantastically clean!

[IRUNEDM]

Nice looking car

[ColdAccord]

[einhander]

Definitely wood grain. There's a guy running a wood nardi on a red e30 on wide rs's and it looks sexy. Also, I want yo wheels.

A red wood grain or really dark would look amazing. And don't paint the euro trim, that red trim on the back just makes it look blah.

no, i want the euro trim to delete that red trim. the previous owner had it painted red, no idea why.

Looks you were showing at Infamous yesterday! Sick man, the car looks dope. Just a few more things to dial it in 100%. I was showing my other car at Infamous as well, my TL.
