Looking really good.

My suggestion would to try getting that diffuser wrapped in CF to match the spoiler.

Totally agree on the diffuser. get it wrapped in Carbon fiber or have it painted AW!

other than that very nice upgrades!

BTW how do you like the BMS stage one?

andy_sk · 04-26-2017, 03:08 PM

Okay! thanks for the feedback! CF Wrapping next then

lsturbointeg I like the BMS Stage 1. It seems like it took a good 500 miles for the car to get attuned to it fully. It revs a bit more, bit more torque and can hear the turbo spool now.

i eventually want to get a tune but i'd hate to get codes thrown for no reason. something maybe what you did...i'll see...thanks for the response

Car looks great! If you are going to get the diffuser wrapped in CF, I would also do the door handle inserts. Lastly I would get my sidemarker trim painted alpine white. What you did in white already is your front bumper reflectors, not your sidemarkers. I am not a huge fan of the //M symbol on your fenders, but realize BMW starting adding those. Personally they look a little out of place to me. I am also running the BMS Stage 1 and like it a lot. That with the intake and can definitely hear the turbo spool now, although it is still faint.

@andy_sk where did you get the front lip from? How hard was it to replace the hood and trunk emblems? I also have emblems from jbspeed I haven't put on yet.

I got the front lip from eBay - link below. Pretty good quality.

Hood and Trunk replacement was pretty easy. You just have to be patient when prying off the existing ones. They are attached using double sided tape, so make sure you tape off the area around the emblem so you do not scratch anything ... and most importantly, use plastic tools.

Hope that helps!

Good looking car! Where did you get your tint, tune and springs installed? I just moved to Orlando and I'm looking for good shops around town. Thanks

Looking good.

Did you install the front lip yourself or had it done professionally?

spyroz · 04-27-2017, 01:21 AM

Looking good...especially the LED adaptives headlights.

I was going to put it up on my own - seems pretty easy. But since I was at the shop getting an alignment after the springs install, those guys just put it for me as the car was raised in any case.
Did not even charge me - it took them 10 mins to do so.

Yeah - I had the ///M marker when I got the car (I did not add those).

S1ammin · 04-27-2017, 11:16 AM

That is a beautiful car. Just looks clean pressed!

Quicksilv3r · 04-28-2017, 08:09 AM

Looks real nice. I'd paint that diffuser gloss black or Alpine White (or if you want to set it off just slightly, paint it the factory grey like you would've found your original M-sport diffuser). Front tires look like they might need replacing soon, but that could just be the pictures. Do you plan on 20s at some point? The spacers are perfect.
