2 month and $1445 later (TiAg E90 330i)

Midnightfang · 03-23-2012, 11:47 AM

So..... I got this car in mid Jan of 2012, 2 month later and I think I'm done. Maybe for some spacers and vinyl roof wrapping later.
Since this is my DD, don't want to spend too much money in to it. So I went the cheap route on most cases in term of mods.
Here is the breakdown of costs.

Day 1 (1/15/2012)

Day 68 (3/23/2012)

Amazing! Well done!

BLK_ATL335 · 03-23-2012, 01:48 PM

Nice job and budgeting at it's finest

dwells · 03-23-2012, 02:15 PM

Nice work. Only suggestions I have are LCI hood and grilles, painting the lower strips/fins/whatever black, and maybe some new wheels.

kfrazie1 · 03-24-2012, 05:30 PM

could you post a close up of your exhaust cut outs? I'm thinking of doing this...

phillyfan · 03-24-2012, 06:29 PM

Looks good. Did you pull the trim to plastidip them for the shadowline effect?

spdy330 · 03-24-2012, 07:44 PM

Nice!

Ed328xiCoupe2011 · 03-24-2012, 07:51 PM

Nice!! I like the clean look not over the top mod. Simple and nice.

No I didn't. I did it w/ everything on, but I spend quite a bit of time to newspaper up everything. Imagine you have to leave the doors open and spray, so I cover all the opening w/ newspapers.

bpsu07 · 03-24-2012, 11:54 PM

I'm interested in that piping as well!

Thanks, and good work. Not sure I'm that brave.
