dont look, just basic boring mods here :)

forgot to give credit where credit was due. to all those posting and pming, i ordered all my parts (bbs wheels, amuse kit, kw v3 coilovers) through Eric at driveline motoring.. (805)341- 9527. he seemed to have the best prices all around and easy to work with. doesnt hurt that they are somewhat local. also want to say thanks to the guys at autotalent for installing my coilovers on such short notice.

and tomorrow im off to Eas for some power mods this round to back up the aggressiveness. ill let you guys know how that goes

got a few of the parts finally on the car...


UPDATED BETTER PICS:

























after looking at all these pics i definitely agree the front mesh must be painted black... keep in mind it doesnt look anywhere nearly as bad in person as all of these pics are directly under florescent lighting


pics taken with the lovely iphone
















trunk is coming in shortly...

exhaust should be on by the end of this week.

Like it alot, I hate that part where you made it white. Other than that, it is perfect...

Also, is that the Ericcson rear bumper?

Everything is gorgeous except that i think that you should paint the center mesh black.

thanks all,

that mesh grill is actually the way it came directly from amuse ericsson... its not painted white its just very shiny silver, and i immediately wanted to paint it black as soon as i saw it at first too, but then it kind of grew on me. havent decided what to do yet... gonna stare at it for another few hours hahaha

and it is frp

The fit and finish look surprisingly well for FRP! I'm impressed, but I would agree to paint or powder coat the mesh in black.

WOW! Nice to see a non vorsteiner M3 for once. Looks very good. I'd go with a non bling grill though.

Wow... golf clap.

Who makes your front/rear end kit? I was literally about to order the poly Vor front lip, but I like the look of that much better.

I agree it needs to be painted black bad. Get some black kidney grills while you are at it.

Ive never seen this kit before, who makes it ? Front/Rear ?

+2 on painting the middle mesh black and your kidneys need to go black big time, with such an aggresive bumper, you cant have chrome kidneys!

Wow all you need is the trunk side skirts and exhaust and you have full ericsson nice!!
I love the rear, it's so clean, may even fit the stock trunk nicely
Hate the mesh tho, other than that; nicely done
