1013MM Magic: Carbon Fiber 135i Widebody

Had John up last weekend to shoot some pics of the car, as always the shots turned out amazing!

Also, major thanks to everyone that's made the car possible over the years including Dan at United and the guys over at MORR Wheels who made me a custom set of 19s to fit the widebody (19x9 square setup with 275s all the way around).

Finally, BEFORE someone complains about the spoiler, the car is built for function, not looks (it just so happens it looks DAMN sexy the way it functions) so I dont care if you dont like it.

Enjoy!

That looks awesome!

Hard to say your car isn't built for looks when you run that color on your wheels and mirrors, but I'm a fan.

How often do you race, if it's built for function.

It sees events about once or twice per month. The sways are fully adjustable, with a front camber kit, ground control coilover suspension on race springs with all the M3 Parts, and fully adjustable rear spoiler. Track days it firms up, runs full negative camber and full adjustment on the wing. The 135i tuned all the way up is an impressive beast.

Lol I know, I switched from 18s, I caved a little bit and wanted cooler wheels, I also drive the car everyday so I care a little bit about how it looks.

See above for suspension and exterior stuff.

As for the rest of it, its running a short shift kit, full custom 3 inch straight through exhaust and catless downpipes (its loud as heck), Dinan Stage II, AFE Intake, BMW Performance brakes and carbon race pads, Performance interior, Performance steering wheel.

Only item I haven't done is the intercooler (which it needs badly on sumer track days) but have been waiting on HPF to finish up their turbo kit as I'd like to do that whole upgrade as a package.

It runs about 1:55ish on thunderhill which is my local spot. For comparision, the big boy porshces such as the GT3 RS run about 1:51ish. It smokes any M3 times I've seen up there, so it's pretty quick

Looks awesome. I can't believe you don't get pulled over with that exhaust setup. Even I got pulled over last week.

What studs/lugs are you running? Look like Project Kics but couldn't tell for sure.

Yeah the rear fenders are stock, thats why I maxed out at 275. I used to run a 285 square set up, but it was horrible on the street, just rubbed way to much.

Lots of your photos are great but lately they seem to be all about Photoshop.
