Fully Painted F30 M Performance kit at the Wood (in Glacier Silver)

aajami · 05-06-2013, 04:00 PM

The sideskirt and the front lip/spoilers have a lot of layers and folds. Makes it look a little too busy for my taste.

My local dealer had those on a 335 on the lot and wanted $6000!!!

You could buy some pretty nice forged wheels for $1,500 a pop.

TK-421 · 05-06-2013, 04:11 PM

That has to be one of the most pathetic "diffusers" I've ever seen - Hondas included. And if people are honestly paying $6000 for 1 piece, skinny wheels then I give up.

I had promised myself that I have enough posts for one day but here goes, lol.

1st, OMG, the msport looks great in that color
2- Those 20s a just great, just great
3-Your engine suggests you don't have the MPPK yet, is this correct?

Those 20s

It's a 4 cylinder...no PPK yet.

I paid $ 3780 for the same set! Including the RFT P-Zero's.

dcg71 · 05-06-2013, 04:48 PM

Paid $4000 for mine with P-Zero RFTs and shipped from Europe to Australia. Tires alone are about $1700 (Tire Rack). Shipping half way across the planet is easily $500. So roughly $1800 for a set of OEM forged wheels is actually pretty reasonable if you ask me..

OP car looks good. Still think I prefer the contrast for the front and rear diffuser though.

Also your front splitter has been mounted poorly! Same problem, it is sticking out also on the sides of the bumper, also here it shouldn't stick out. The part that has to be mounted with betalink is off, you can see a crack / seam where it should be tight (on the outer sides).

unfortunately you are correct on all fronts....the installation is very subpar. yikes.

meh
not a big fan of the ///M-perf exterior treatments...
i think the BBK, PPK and suspension mods are much more worthwhile

24601 · 05-06-2013, 05:47 PM

WOW. Just WOW. I never liked the F30 untill seeing this car. Amazing.

kevinlevrone · 05-06-2013, 05:55 PM

Rarely have I seen such a tasteless design choice from BMW. The rims do not have anything in common with the "sports" word, those tires are too narrow and stretched far beyond any OEM look should be, the gap between the tire and the fender is huge, rear bumper looks way too busy and does not have OEM refinement. What were they thinking ? My guess is that they had about two weeks to put this kit together.

NOKAOI F30/F90 · 05-06-2013, 06:01 PM

At the end of the day, this car goes into your driveway so you have to live with the color of the diffuser, blacked out rocker panels etc. If this is your preference then so be it. So, congratulations on putting this car together to reflect your own personal taste.

p.s. I love those 405 wheels!

MSteve5036 · 05-06-2013, 06:08 PM

Not really feeling it

yousefnjr · 05-06-2013, 06:11 PM

Diffuser looks better black, and those tiny brakes behind the huge wheels look strange...

..Other than that, I like.

clbmw · 05-06-2013, 06:14 PM

Quite like it but would prefer they release the proper M Performance model with this already on

Jackson743 · 05-06-2013, 06:14 PM

I'm not feeling it, either. Too tall, too busy. I like the MP splitter, but painting the whole thing looks a little odd.

ORIGIN M. · 05-06-2013, 06:39 PM

Not bad at all.

How is a 255 tire on an 8.5" wheel stretched? Style 230s on my E92 had 255s on a 9J rear, stock.

mdosu · 05-06-2013, 07:40 PM

wow, that rear bumper valence and side skirts and front splitter does NOT look good. It looks like a cheap ebay kit.

Jaguar · 05-06-2013, 08:26 PM

Looks pretty sweet painted all silver, but could have looked better without the side skirt vinyl

iMunoz · 05-06-2013, 08:35 PM

Looks boring. Needed the black accent. Just my personal opinion.
