A teaser of a few more mods... - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

TreDirtyFive · 11-25-2012, 04:25 PM

broham and bmw aficionado, brandon@eas, helped me install a few new pieces to the barge. it needs a drop bad but I don't want it slammed so waiting patiently to see what the M-Performance suspension or eibach looks like. Rear lip spoiler is also sorely needed. Thanks for looking!

P.S Excuse the IPhone photos...

This is the list so far...

Alufelgen 19" SF-71 Titanium Gunmetal
IND reflector removal front & back
Chrome signal bulbs (amber removal)
M-Performance Aluminum Pedals
M-Performance front grill /w M-Sport Slats

Real performance mods asap!

Very nice so far.

jzheng02 · 11-25-2012, 04:35 PM

Where did you get the pedals from?

TreDirtyFive · 11-25-2012, 04:37 PM

pedals from the old reliable tischer

jamesems · 11-25-2012, 05:17 PM

man that a crazy amount of wheel gap. I'm not even sure the m performance suspension with m performance springs and a 20mm drop will bring it down to look correct. Crap I may have to go to coil overs. Yours is an m-sport correct? so it already has a 10mm factory drop.

MacRed335i · 11-25-2012, 05:45 PM

Very clean and impressive...love the wheels... How about a rear shot to see the back tires...what size are the tires?

no, the m-sport uses the exact same suspension setup as the sports line. It may be different in europe but it is not here...continued BMW cost cutting it seems; which includes no LED turn signals (front or rear) 2009+ E90s do, wtf, light & thin trunk door (closes with a very un-german like clink), interior bits are much diminished in quality over predecessors, and, last but not least, the softer boatier ride. *sigh*

I think I've read that the sports line and msport models have a 10mm drop compared to no line, luxury or modern. I've also read that the m performance suspension kit with the added (not included) m performance springs, will increase the drop to a total of 20mm. Thats about a 3/4" drop over the non-sports line f30's. not sure how that would look. As it stands the m performance suspension kit is available but the m performance springs are not.

fotios335i · 11-25-2012, 07:47 PM

good choice with alufelgen. I have a long history with them and the quality of their wheels is simply unmatched. very durable. car looks great.

jamesems · 11-25-2012, 07:50 PM

Beauty of a car. Love the wheels. What tires did you go with?

TreDirtyFive · 11-25-2012, 11:19 PM

nothing special...just hankook ventus v12s but there was an 80 dollar off special for four so I went with it. 225/40s in front and 255/35s in the back..basically oem sizes for 19s.

midnight express · 11-25-2012, 11:43 PM

I gave a thumbs up to a black one one yesterday on the 210. I was driving a s2000 with a ginormous wing, haha. Happen to be you?

rxander · 11-26-2012, 02:30 AM

First f30 I've seen on here with SF-71. Black with Gunmetal or hyper black are the best color combo for that wheel. What et? 35 front and 35 rear ?

nano10 · 11-26-2012, 03:24 AM

Very nice pics, i agree with the drop but dont rush it. All the suspension options for f30 is not out yet. BTW you will love the wheels

Oh, was that you? haha. Awesome. Nice S2K...I tried to give you a thumbs up but apparently my gf told me right after you had buzzed past. John's gf, right? I know Long, Ivan, Frankie, etc. and the crew very well. Fresh.

gtabfknkdnme · 11-26-2012, 06:11 PM

car looks real good. got any pics in better light or higher exposure?

TreDirtyFive · 11-26-2012, 06:12 PM

will do a proper photoshoot when suspension and rear lip spoiler is on...

iheart1013mm · 11-26-2012, 09:43 PM

Yes that was me. I was like oh yay f30 then I forgot I wasn't in mine. Thanks the car belongs to a friend. Just took it to the track for the day. Yes long and the rest of the crew are great, like family. Is that where you will be modding the car?
