    My 318is with its M-Tech II on

    Well I finally got around to painting and putting on the M-Tech II I got from Greg back in November, and its sweet as hell. I also took some random pictures in a high school parking lot with a meh camera. They aren't the best pictures, but whatever....onto the pics!




    I am totally stoned in this picture. This is my convex rear view mirror I bought, JDM. It's huge. :up:




    The chrome fell off the kidney in a 10 mph fender bender. I dunno it looks okay...also the freshly painted M-Tech II, the euro grilles and bumper trim, and the misaligned hood I tried to fix. It was alot worse before....

    My Sony unit. It matches the car well, came with it. If it was amber lighting, it'd be pefect. Looking for a better sounding receiver though...

    And this wierd cupholder that came with the car...it works.


    Plans are to get GC and Koni's once the spring weather comes along, and put in the M Roadster SSK. After that, maybe some wheels. And yea those are BBS caps off of a Miata's 14" BBS' I found in a junkyard.

    looks dirty, and not fited to well up front. but hell, i cant really say much. my front valence has been spraypainted and is being held on with zip ties.

    my advice: wash it, tweak the fitting, then get some nice senic pics.

      Sadly, that is after a car wash. The paint is very oxidized. And the M-Tech II doesn't look right since its supposed to line up with the M-Tech II bumper.

      Didn't see that one coming....

        Hmmm, I've already purchased an Mtech2 lower like yours, waiting for Spring to paint and mount it. No point to throw it in the salt for a few months.

        I really like that look, just fix the mounting a bit.

                I'd rather have cloth! And the drivers is a bit ripped, but yea the interior is pretty damn good. Thanks for the comments!

                        looking good...do 318's sit higher than 325's because of the weight? It looks like your sits alot higher than mine

                            I guess if you want it done right, you gotta do it yourself. And 318is' sit 1" lower than 325's since it has sport suspension? Anyways thats what the GC and Koni's are for...

                            Any way to fix it? I might just take it back to the guy who did it for me...
